RB Matt Jones

Colts claimed RB Matt Jones off waivers from the Redskins.

A former third-round pick, Jones quickly washed out in Washington due to ball-security issues. Plenty of backs in the past have corrected those problems, and Jones averaged a respectable 4.6 YPC on 99 carries last season before getting sent to Siberia by coach Jay Gruden. He'll get a fresh start in Indy where the Colts are looking for their successor to Frank Gore. Jones is a hulking 6'2/239 at 24 years old. He has two years left on his rookie deal.

Dumb pick up

 

I was actually initially pleased with this pickup, but your thoughtful, well laid out and comprehensive explanation as to why Jones should not have been claimed has changed my mind. You, sir, are a wordsmith...you have a talent. Keep up the excellent work keeping our fan base well informed. :thmup:

Everytime I hear of the name Matt Jones I think of the Matt Jones HB/FB for the Jags... Hopefully he can lay some wood down on opposing Lbs.. 

You mean the college QB converted into NFL WR with a serious drug problem?
