Aaron Jones

Jones might look like a good breakout candidate in 2014 since he's coming off a strong freshman season in which he ran for 811 yards (5.2 YPC) and four touchdowns in nine games, but his 2013 numbers look more like his ceiling than a starting point. That's not Jones' fault – he definitely played at a high level last year – but UTEP also brings back incumbent 2013 starter Nathan Jeffery, whose early season injuries allowed Jones to get onto the field in the first place. When Jones dealt with injuries of his own late in the year, missing the last three games, Jeffery reminded everyone why he was the incumbent, running for 130 yards and two touchdowns against Florida International and bolting for 140 yards and two scores against Middle Tennessee State. Jones and Jeffery appear destined to negate the fantasy value of the other.
