00:00All right, let's move over to Minnesota, where the consensus is that it will be McCarthy's team.

00:05How does that bode well for a veteran running back?

00:09Well, here's the thing. It's hard to knock Aaron Jones and what he did this year. He was a very

00:15solid running back. He finished his RB15, but he did hit the magical age of 30. He's going to be

00:2131 next year. And he is not Derrick Henry. He is not Saquon Barkley. He is not prolific in that

00:28sense. So when you do have these running backs that hit this age, typically that's the time to

00:32get out. And Aaron Jones has been with these guys for years, that never got enough respect,

00:37kept finishing his RB1. People would disrespect him. The next year he would finish an RB1.

00:42His run with the Packers was great. It was one of the all-time best undervalued,

00:46underappreciated backs in fantasy in the last 10 years. But there comes an end to all of these

00:51things. And I think the Vikings are going to look to get younger at the running back position. It's

00:56a really good running back class. I think they're going to draft somebody else. And I think Aaron

01:00Jones, unfortunately, is a guy that now he has hit that expiration date. I'd rather be out a

01:04year early than a year too late on Aaron Jones.
