We remember him right now as having finished the year like a ball of fire, but we have to keep in mind that he either missed or was at least on a tight snapcount for over 1/3 of the season. This was the worst season of his career for injuries... is that a fluke, or does it mean the clock is ticking a little more loudly now?The guy only has (at most) a couple of peak years left, and every single month brings him a month closer to the end of the road. The man has a violent running style, and has been tackled over 1800 times in college and the pros. And with Aaron Jones, more often than not "tackled" means "slammed to the ground by at least one man twice his size".I know, but I just hate paying free agent money to running backs. By  the time they get to that point, their career is at least 1/3 over, maybe closer to half over. I think that's one area where you're better off saving money for FA safeties and such, and drafting a young RB who hasn't been beaten half to death yet.</blockquote>
