    Pros: Fast and elusive playmaker. Good stop and start speed. Beat Jahvid best in a track race. Has Great ability to break tackles. Has some return ability. Can catch out the backfield(64 receptions)Amazing production(2955 yards 7.7 ypc 29 rushing tds)

    Cons: Doesnt protect the ball when hes running this wasnt an issue in college but in the NFL that ball will be stripped alot. Kinda thin frame. Dances to much that may work in FCS but you will lose yardage in the pros. He's going to need to weigh 200 pounds at his pro day and maintain that weight in the NFL. Injury Prone. Level of competition. Not so good in pass protection.

    Taiwan Jones is an explosive undersized back. He was a track star in high school and he had 2 terrific years at Eastern Washington hes a bit injury prone always nic'd up. But he has terrific cutting ability and his ability to break tackles is very good. He's a late round sleeper that is that crazy change of pace guy that in spots can really help teams. May not be an every down back but hes electrifying enough to make plays when he gets in there.

    He is pretty good. Hopefully, he can go to a team that knows how to utilize his skills.
