I get it, it's tempting. He was a solid player during the Nixon administration. He's the presumptive starter on a team that looks like it pretty much has to run the ball to sustain any offense, given they have approximately zero NFL-caliber quarterbacks, wide receivers, or tight ends. Someone has to run the ball, right? Right?!
Sure, someone has to. You just don't want it to be Maurice Jones-Drew.
As bad as the Jaguars were the past few years, MJD hasn't helped. In fact, he hasn't finished in the top 20 most efficient backs since 2010. Let me put it another way: his top statistical comparable is Amos Zereoue.
Take Fred Jackson late. Or Pierre Thomas. Or hell, anyone. Take a kicker.
