Ted literally started with Aaron the QB to open the draft in 2005… then TT finished his draft portfolio with Aaron the RB in 2017 as bookends to his legacy. Both players are still playing today, 20 years later.  #12 is already a HOF lock. Aaron Jones is nearing conversation for a HOF candidate. At his current pace, Aaron Jones could quietly slide into the Top50 Rushers of all time in 2025. If he repeats 2024, he’s not only sneaking into top 50 historically, but he’s a potential 2026 season from catching Ahman Green at #39 overall.  If Jones plays through the 2027 season? his current 1,200 all purpose yearly pace (1,500+ last season) would crack the Top100 All-Purpose players in NFL history. That’s a pretty stout neighborhood of NFL names we’re talking about. He’d be passing the production of Art Monk, Jason Whitten, DeShean Jackson and Roger Craig along the way. While it’s purely speculation of how long he can last, one things first sure. Aaron Jones has been and will always be one of the most underestimated players in history. For a late 5th Round selection he already grades out at A+</blockquote>
