laugh all you want... Cook is just a little bit taller and a little bit stronger, but he basically dances until he has a hole to run through.

Watch all his tape. 90% of his successful runs are the result of massive holes opened up by FSU's line, and he isn't impressive upon contact or open field. He runs high and stiff.

He's a second rounder at best, although some team will probably take him too early. A top 15 pick is WAY TOO fuging EARLY.

 

The second best RB in this draft is Royce Freeman, IF he can return to form and get back from injuries that bugged him this year.

Fournette - AP

Freeman - this year's Elliot, with the potential to be better in the NFL than Elliot has been his rookie season.

Those are the only two RBs worth a top 15 pick, and I am currently hoping we get one of them.

Cook's quickness Gives him the edge over Fournette ...The lol was for the terrible comparison ...

It wasn't a terrible comparison. He'll be pretty much DeAngelo Williams in the NFL. He'll look like he's going to be a stud at times, but put him behind a bad line or with a coordinator who doesn't know what he's doing, and he's a 600 yards a year guy who fades out to backup duties in the 8th year or so of his career.

TBQH the first few years, DeAngelo was probably a better RB than Dalvin Cook will be.

Fournette is more an Eric Shelton and Cook runs with more power than DWill ever thought about...As it stands now Cook would create more yds than Fournette in our offense. Don't see a lot of dancing from Cook...

What Cook are you watching?

Unfortunately I have to watch a LOT of noles games living in florida and girlfriend is a alum/noles club memeber.

Cook until this Florida game I wouldnt touch with a 10 foot pole in the first.  Christian McCaffrey runs with just as much power as Cook.  Cook is a good athlete with track speed.  He's made his career by having that massive all-american OL blasting through giant holes and him flying through them And catching passes out of the backfield as a mismatch with LBs.

 

He is no where near on Fournettes level and its almost laughable to even think.  Fournette is 230+ who can lower the boom into dbs and some LBs (go back and watch the ole miss game this year, one of the only games he's been healthy this season) .  He's also got the speed to burn guys a upper 4.3 guy much like AP.  Cook is more like Melvin Gordon to Fournette's Gurley.  

We have no OL, unless we run some sweeps Cook would have a Ton of tackles behind the line .  We have to have someone back there who can break a tackles and thats Fournette over Cook every day and twice on sundays.

If Fournette could have the impact that Elliot had this year I would like him.  

I will be probably the only guy to say this but i don't think Fournette will be all that at the next level.

I wouldn't pass in the 2nd or later but we need interior help and get a future replacement for Olsen.

I know our offensive line is awful, but reaching on an OT with our first round pick this year would be an awful mistake when we could snag an elite game-changing talent at RB, edge, or S.  The OT position is basically dead in the college game

Oh i dont think we go OT in first rd. Takes a few yrs to develop.  I prefer free agent for o line help at the moment.
