Perfect Comp for Fournette..


WOW!!

Recommended Posts

I've seen some of you compare Leonard to AP and Bo.. But everytime i watch his videos he reminds me of Stephen Davis more than anybodu else..

 

Same body type and upright running style, same cutting ability and breakaway speed.. I think Fournette looks for more contact than Stephen did thoe..

We'll see if he's better than Davis or not. Davis was good because he had a knack for following blockers, finding the hole and the end zone. He was powerful but don't think that was his defining attribute.

Fornette is much more talented than Davis.  Adrian Peterson is more like it even if AD is shifter and Fornette is bigger more powerful.    Now, just wondering if Fornette will be hurt like AD has been much of the time.

He's a RB. It's not a question of "will he get hurt?" 

It's a question of when. Those will be good days, when fans start calling him injury prone.

Peterson was remarkably durable prior to tearing his ACL in 2014. Prior to that he'd only missed 9 games in his entire career.

because were fans and its a projection and its fun to see who reminds us of who and its the offseason and there's little else to do as diehard fans and some like metorphors and parallelism and some don't care about the first responder who says something in contrast just to get pie.

Fournette is a freight train looking to punish anyone in his way, but he also doesn't get caught from behind in the open field much.  He is a perfect fit for the clock grinding power ball we want to play.  He keeps our offense on the field and our defense off the field.  That makes both better.  He is going to be a star.

    • Qbs aren't defined by physical abilities. Brady, Brees, Manning, Montana, Warner,.....doesn't seem to correlate.

    • If we are going to spend the money anyway, maybe the signing is not as bad as it seems.  Mays outperformed Corbett (before his injury and if you go back to last year, Corbett has been below average) and then Christensen took the job and Mays quickly took it from him and never looked back.  He could use improvement reaching to the next level (LBs) but picking up stunts and blitzes---he was surprisingly good.  Run blocking needs some work, but he is 25.  Corbett, in my view, should be G/C depth and if Mays steps back, he is there.  Mays should start because this team is building for the future and 30 year old players are not building blocks.  We shall see.  That is how I think about it, but there are many factors we do not know. Having said that, I like what Zavala is doing, and I do not want to bring in someone who would take opportunities away from him.  Zavala was really good at RG down the stretch, and in limited duty, was awesome. In fact, we have a guard from the PS who played briefly and did well, but he only played a few plays.  He is 25 and I recall that fans of his former team were upset when we signed him.   Maybe as the backup center only (Corbett).  You need 2 centers to run practices efficiently.  I cannot say enough about the OL coaches on this staff.  What they have done is overshadowed by the Lewis / Hunt signing.  Mays, Ekwonu, Zavala--impressive growth.
