i saw this and had to post it for those of you that have never seen greg jones in action. this clip was the first game of the year at UNC. it's a crappy image. but, closely watch the stiff arm to the corner that takes his helmet clean off!!!!!! greg jones is number 6 FSU(obviously) :shock:

That looks so illegal! That's one of the reasons I don't wanna play college ball or even high school ball for that matter.

it may be borderline.... but still looks to me as if he got the defender on the left shoulder pad and drove him into a blocker with a stiff arm, that's where the helmet came off..
regardless, i think the guy has a type of confidence you can't teach, i almost hope he has a bad combine appearance, to drop him to us in the second. :lol:

man, jdub, seeing a RB, running with that much power gets my adrenaline flowing :D i saw that game,(being here in UNC country), a couple more FSU games, and the senior bowl. if for some reason we trade down with NE, that 21st pick would be a great steal to say the least. i know it was a college corner, but, dayum, he man handled the defender. this is what you call a bruiser back......
BTW... 6-1, 255 lbs

Not only is he a power runner, but I read that before he blew out his knee in 2002, he ran a 4.41 in the forty. DAMN. But about drafting the guy, we dont need to worry if he'll drop to the 2nd round, he surely will. Only because of injury troubles. Hey did you guys know hes the cousin of boxing great Joe Frazier???

Just to add to the impressiveness of that clip....

I don't think that it a CB that he b!tch-slapped there, but All-ACC saftey Dexter Reid. You can't tell from that clip but I remember that from when it happened.

as much as i think we need to give betts a chance, and we need to use our 3 draft picks on the Defensive side of the ball... After seeing that clip and reading up on Jones... I wouldn't mind using a second round pick on him if he falls that far.

Your right it was Reid I was watching the game and my 1st thought after that play was the Redskins need this guy. :)

For what it's worth Mike Mayock on the NFL Network said that Greg Jones is the #1 RB on his board and will be gone by pick 20.
