Pittsburgh Steelers nab ex-Cowboys n current Eagles RB FELIX JONES...TRIPLE DIAMOND Chronicles Take 116...STEELERS and BIRDS make a Keystone State TRADE involving a BACKER and a RUNNING Back...#STEELERgang needs RB Help

Reported through numerous media outlets the Pittsburgh Steelers and Philadelphia Eagles have made a trade. The Steelers give the Birds Backer Adrian Robinson as the Eagles need Outside Linebacker Depth. The Steelers get in return hopefully much-needed help at running back as they receive Eagles 2013 FA Pick Up and former Cowboys Bust 1st Rounder Felix Jones.

The Steelers 2013 Rookie RB and 2nd rounder Le'veon Bell has been hampered with injuries in his short career with the Steelers as he hasn't even played a game yet. Now with a reported Foot Sprain that will keep him sidelined for a reported 6-8 weeks the Steelers were in scramble mode for a back. Jones will now join the Steelers current running back depth chart in RED Dawg Redman, Junk Yard Dwyer, and the "Law Firm on Three Rivers" in LaRod Stephens-Howling.

Jones was a speedster coming out of "Whoo Pig Sooie" U in Fayettteville, Arkansas and was drafted partly because of his play there in the SEC and Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones being a Hog Alum. Jones was touted just as good as his RB teammate in Raiders Darren McFadden and those two were backed up at Arkansas by former Brown and Chiefs RB Peyton Hillis...and Hillis couldn't even get on the field.

Steelers Nation we rarely make trades but in K.C. (Director of Football Ops Kevin Colbert) we trust. Hopefully Jones could stick and be a valuable asset
in the 'Burgh in 2013.
