While I don't play fantasy or follow it in the NSFL , if I did I would have certainly tried to draft Gump. The dude is on pace for a historic season as a running back and I am assuming that it is translating for Gump owners in the NSFL Fantasy football world. With roughly 800 total yards and 7 td's he can almost single handedly win you a fantasy game. On pace for 2800+ total yards and 28 TD's, Run Forrest Run can simultaneously be heard by New Orleans Second Line fans and Forrest Gump fantasy owners alike as he runs roughshod over NSFL defenses week in and week out.
Besides Gump, Jones has been a breakout receiver this year for New Orleans and sits third in the league in receiving yards with 449 and 3 touchdowns. From fantasy players I have talked to, Jones was a late or undrafted player that is bringing huge value to their teams. I don't think many outside of The Big Easy expected this breakout year and Fantasy owners certainly did not either.
So I think the theme this year is if you want to win your fantasy league, draft New Orleans Second Line players. Purple is all the craze this year anyways.
