NFL - Jones is a classic slasher with the wiggle and explosiveness to elude open-field tacklers and then burst to chunks of yardage. Jones was a much more assertive runner in 2017 and improved upon areas of improvement from the 2016 season. Jones also has the ability to turn into a much more dangerous pass-catcher than we saw at USC. He should test well at the Combine, but there will still be teams concerned with how many carries he can handle and how that affects his draft value. He's a big play talent with a chance to thrive at a high level wherever he lands.
CBS - Electric slasher who runs with excellent vision to proper cut off blocks and serious speed to hit big-gainers. Powerful between the tackles despite his leaner frame. Will win most races to the corner.
DLF - PROJECTED RANGE FOR A ROOKIE DRAFT The Buccaneers used high draft capital to snag Jones and, if you want him on your squads, you can expect to do the same. Rookie Dynasty ADP here at DLF has seen Jones drop from pick 1.05 in February to pick 1.07 April, dropping one pick each month before the NFL Draft. This drop was expected after he came up injured in the NFL draft. Post-NFL Draft, I think fantasy players will see him go anywhere from the 1.02 to no later than the 1.05. With a prime landing spot, folks should expect him to start to climb over Nick Chubb and possibly a few of the other running backs he was taken in front of in the NFL Draft. Owners are expecting big things from Jones in 2018 and will have to pay up to get their guy.
