Remember when people didn't want Fournette because Singleary was "special"   hahaha


 

Really - I am supposed to want Fournette because why - on a good rushing team he hit 55 yards.  
 

No I still do not want Fournette.
 

He just is not anything special.

Fournette has been AWFUL in Tampa.  He had one good run where he initially was stopped for a 3 yard gain but Green Bay couldnt tackle.

 

Bell would have been a better pickup but he chose the Chiefs.

Playoff Lenny is better than anything on our roster.

He had one 20 yard run - other than that he was worse than either of our RBs all day.

 

This on a team with a better run blocking OL.  
 

Nothing really suggests he is anything more than a JAG - just like our guys.

 

So no - I would not take him to be on this team - rather have our guys at a lesser price if you are just getting a JAG RB.

Fournette is a special talent, if his head is on right he could be really really good.   His TD run yesterday showed what he can be.  Of course since he is in the playoffs and super bowl he will put the effort in.  His issue is dedication and attitude, he has off the charts talent.

He was awful pretty much all year, but as much as I dislike him as a player, he has shockingly had his best moments of the year in the playoffs. He still isn't good though and even yesterday, he turned what could have been a TD into an INT.
