Tashard Choice or Felix Jones

Postby strider2k2 » Wed Feb 04, 2009 3:47 pm

I am the proud owner of Marion Barber, and I nee dto know which of these two to pursue as a handcuff. I think Choice is the better back, but I also think that Felix Jones will get every chance in the world to play. Who is the smarter pickup?

Felix is the guy you want, immensely high ceiling, more play making ability, he's a game changer no doubt about it...But if your just trying to handcuff Choice is a great one, I got him towards the end of alot of drafts I took Barber and sat him on my bench so he came in handy late in the year for me when Barber was nicked.


Choice is a better handcuff, Felix is the better talent and if Barber goes down I think he sees the hugest increase in role...Remember Choice played as much as he did because Felix was on Ir at the time, so if your looking at one I want Felix.

Felix is the handcuff. The guy is explosive and could do great things if Barber goes down. I don't see Choice getting many carries with a healthy Barber and Felix.

I disagree. I think if Barber were to go down again, Choice would pick up most of the carries and Felix will continue to play the change of pace role.

He probably will, but Felix was scoring touchdowns with minimal carries a game, you could argue he was right in the thick of the rookie of the year award at the time he was hurt...It would be a lightning thunder sort of thing, and if both guys are getting 15 carries a game I like Felix to produce more, and if were talking strictly keepers Felix has a much higher ceiling in the realm of Chris Johnson.


I am really high on Choice, but I highly doubt he's the lead back if Felix Jones is healthy, you could say he'll probably take goal line carries if Barber is down but I think Felix will be a much better option and the team really thinks he can be more then a change of pace back.

Another vote for Felix. If it were down to him and Choice, Felix would do more with his carries.

Help with mine?
