You didn't see many end-to-end rushes, or fancy dekes coming from Jarome. Craig Button once said, explaining why Dallas was able to snag Jarome at 11-"Because there wasn't a lot of flash and dash with Jarome. He didn't wow you. He didn't go end to end. But as you watched him, he was a strong player in every single area of the game. A really good player who could play it any way you wanted. He was heavy. He was hard. He could kill penalties. Score. Make plays." That was Jarome.
