9. Felix Jones

CarAV: 27

Much like Hightower, Felix Jones never mounted much in the way of a successful career. The former first-round pick never scored more than three rushing touchdowns nor did he ever run for more than 800 yards in a season.

Across six seasons and two teams, Jones did manage 4,037 yards and 14 touchdowns from scrimmage. In his third season with the Dallas Cowboys, Jones caught 48 passes for 450 yards and a touchdown while also contributing 800 yards on the ground. His AV reached a high of nine that year.

But, after spending 2013 with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Jones' time as an NFL running back came to a rather quick end.
