In other words, it requires players who can serve in both phases. Aaron Jones is one of the most impressive receiving backs in the NFL, and Jamaal Williams is very capable. Adrian Peterson is very limited as a receiver. There is no comparison between Jones and Peterson. Jones is the vastly superior player, especially in this offense. The better statistical comparison would be:Jones: 220 touches, 1204 yards from scrimmage, 5.5 yds/touchPeterson: 178 touches, 816 yards from scrimmage, 4.6 yds/touchAnd that doesn't even touch on the bigger issue-- the limitations to an offense that a player like Peterson brings vs. the possibilities of someone with a varied skillset like Jones.</blockquote>
