Where is everyone putting Ronald Jones’s value these days?

Based on what I hear other people say, he might be worth a 4th.

He's essentially a hard hold for me right now. He was drafted in the mid/late 1st last year so I wouldn't just give up on him yet. If he's irrelevant again this year then I may be more apt to trade him but I still wouldn't trade him for less than a 3rd.

If I could toss out a 2nd for him and have it be accepted, I would. Owner said no though.

I wouldn't be buying until all the free agent chips have fallen, truthfully. Maybe even the NFL Draft, if your Fantasy Draft occurs after that. I offered Barber to the ROJO owner in my league, he had no interest because he thinks the BUCS will surely add another body to the mix.

He is 21. We play dynasty. We don't play redraft. No big FA went to TB. Lets at least try to be a touch patient. I'm not saying he is worth much here. But..... C'mon people. At this point in time, he is a hold if you drafted him as a late 1st or early 2nd last year. If you don't own him, sending offers of a 2nd is likely enough to get it done. Sending offers of a 4th makes you seem like a trol .

This community seems to be getting worse and worse with this mentality over time.
Not just regarding RoJo; just regarding young players and patience overall.

No stats to back up RoJo!

Several potential free agents or trade targets still left out there: Ajayi, Yeldon, Ware, Crowell, maybe McKinnon or Breida.

Then a bunch of backs in the draft that look good too.

I wouldn’t complete write RoJo off, he has a small chance at getting a small opportunity to start this year, but just glad I spent virtually nothing to get him at the beginning of last year because he is worth little more than that as of now. His main value lies in his draft calital and age. If the opportunity comes he could shoot way up in value quickly because of that. High risk, long odds, high reward back. Lottery ticket

Be advised, Arians has been talking up Peyton Barber. He's been mostly reticent regarding Jones.

He has been talking up both; it depends on what week which one he is going to talk up.

This was from early late February:
Coach Bruce Arians said Wednesday that he's excited to see if Jones can do some of the things with Tampa Bay that David Johnson did in the offensive scheme Arians oversaw during his tenure with the Cardinals, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Been playing this game for over 30 years so I have tons of patience or am completely crazy.

I thought he was a bust when I scouted him. Just don't think he can play so he was in fact worthless to me from the jump. I admit I miss from time to time on players like we all do but his age or my patience had zero to do with it.

I will be surprised if he ever does anything at this level. I haven't had so may negatives on a consensus high RB since Trent Richardson.

I will happily give DE's, WR's and TE's time to develop but RB's flash early as they have to see a hole and hit with authority. This player doesn't do either well. In addition, his burst looks below average and his pass blocking is weak. He looks terrible in tight spaces.
