Although we’re only three weeks into this young season, there have been a few rookies that have shown their talents already. But even fewer have had as big an impact in games as Cowboys’ rookie running back Felix Jones. Some Cowboys fans bemoaned passing up on former Illini Rashard Mendenhall. But let me pose a question to those fans: were you thinking of Mendenhall when Felix Jones broke off that 60-yarder last night? Didn’t think so.
That being said, I think that Felix Jones has to be counted among this year’s rookies that have shown their worth in this young season. Here’s my absurdly early Rookie of the Year ballot.
1. Matt Forte (73 carries, 304 yards, 1 TD; 13 rec, 105 yards, 1 TD)
2. Felix Jones (18 carries, 148 yards, 2 TD; 9 kick returns, 316 yards, 1 TD)
3. Johnathan Stewart (31 carries, 145 yards, 3 TD)
4. Eddie Royal (18 rec, 194 yards, 2 TD)
5. DeSean Jackson (17 rec, 256 yards)
I think that Felix would be number one if he got as many carries as Forte. The kid is a freak and was well worth the first-round pick.
