    There's an exit just shy of Charlotte, I-85 north, called Dallas/New Hope.

    Very fitting.

    there's an exit just east of Orlando.

    it's called Deltona/Debary.

    Jake Delhomme......

    I think Jones would be a nice pickup. We do not need a new starter, which is what many of you seem to be after, what we need is a backup who can play. Jones has potential and is definitely good enough to share some carries with DW.

    I think Jones makes a lot of sense. The guy runs hard as hell, and hits the hole like a freight train. The pass blocking thing is an added bonus.

    While Marion Barber is great, I think Jones got some unfair treatment (ALWAYS being pulled from the game when they were near the endzone) I think he'd have that chip-on-the-shoulder mentality that the best ones seem to play with.

    I think we showed we'll put enough carries on the field to keep a 2nd back happy, which would be the only selling point for a vet. i don't know if you can sell the guy on competition at this point, I think you really just have to go with the roles as defined unless it doesn't work out.
