Cowboys toying with package that puts Felix Jones, Marion Barber on field together
Jerry Jones picked Felix Jones (no relation) over Rashard Mendenhall in large part because they thought the Razorback back was a better complement for Marion "The Barbarian" Barber.
Felix's primary offensive role as a rookie will be a change-of-pace back. But the Cowboys also plan to put him on the field with Barber on occasion.
Barber and Felix lined up in the backfield together several times during today's workout. Barber lined up in front of the offset I with Felix starting at tailback and motioning out wide.
"I'm very comfortable with it," said Felix, who played some slot receiver at Arkansas. "Right now, they're just getting me introduced to it. They're just showing me some of the things that I can do in the future."
Felix didn't put up big receiving numbers at Arkansas, which had a poor passing games. But the Cowboys' scouts and coaches saw a back with good hands and route-running ability who could blossom as a receiver in the pros.
