2012 Outlook: Fantasy Handcuff

Last updated on Aug-02-2012 by Ben Standig

Bad news for anyone who typically avoids the Felix Jones hype train: many more people are now on your side. After laboring through the Cowboys' first five games last season, injuries slowed Jones (shocker!) and DeMarco Murray happened. Both are training room regulars so a depth chart change is possible - and likely at least once or twice. For now Jones is the other guy – and a fantasy reserve.

2012 Experts Mock Draft (June)
June 6, 2012 - June 25, 2012
11.07 FFToolbox.com (Ben) - Jones is entering the final year of his rookie contract and is playing behind the equally fragile DeMarco Murray. That's enough to risk taking a shot here and hoping he gets a handful of starts along the way.
2012 Experts Mock Draft (July)
July 16 - 27
12.11 DraftSharks.com - Two things we know: DeMarco Murray has a serious injury history. Felix Jones always comes with big-play ability. Nice best-ball combo. In redraft leagues, I think Jones is one of the most important handcuffs.

Aug 14 - 24
13.03 FootballGuys.com - Best RB left, to be quite honest and Murray is not exactly rock solid for his health history. Jones was the starter 12 months ago so there is plenty of upside if Murray gets hurt, and the Cowboys aren't exactly full of healthy bodies right now.
