Long vs E.Jones

Postby dvpkwys » Thu Sep 22, 2022 6:07 am

Grabbed David Long but he has been uninspiring. Ernest Jones is playing well behind Wagner, is he the better add?

Following this one as well.

I watched most of the Titans game last week and Long was involved in most plays I just think he was unlucky to not get any more tackles. I'm holding onto him for another week in one pool hoping for better production.

I would roll the dice on Rodriguez though since he's a rookie who is producing.

Watching Long when I could, just seems always late to the play/pile.

I wish E Jones was closer to 90% snap count

Could creep up there in the next few weeks?

Long > Rodriguez > E Jones

Give me the 3 down LB on a team that looks to possibly struggle all year. With Lewan out, I don’t expect the titans to be the Titans of old.

Long is playing 100% of snaps but isn't scoring much. He's flashed in the past, this year not so much.

Yeah, I think so!
Fortunately, in the 20 team league where I own Bobby Wags, I have had Ernest Jones on Taxi. :thumbup:

wagner gone harm him more than it helps him, for me, even if it wasn't 5 years ago wagner.
i'm not a big fan of jones, he's an average player in an ok situation. he might get more snaps and be productive for IDP for a season or two, which is fine, but nothing to get overly excited about.

long is more established as a 3-down player and even if he isn't all that exciting i'd still have him over jones.
