Felix Jones is a career quality starter — a running back whose body of work places Jones in the top quarter of all players at the position historically. The Knox model values sustained contribution over flash, and Jones's career arc reflects exactly that kind of reliable professional-grade performance.
A high-end running back defined as much by excellent availability over their career as by their on-field impact (top 20% all-time). Coaches and teammates could count on them being available.
Worth 52 points of value above a freely-available replacement running back — top 44% of all 4,649 ranked at the position. 5 of 6 seasons cleared the replacement bar, by +10.4 on average.See board →
