Cmc for Fournette trade?

[Pantha-kun]

I think CMC is more versitile and seems to be able to stay healthy which is huge. Fournettes already missed a number of games in his young career because of injuries.  

If i had to guess Fournette might have a decent career but his body wont last as long CMC and hell have much shorter career with way fewer games played due to injury.   

[Mr. Scot]

This could get ugly.

To actually address the topic, No I wouldn't do the trade for two reasons.

1. Fournette has an injury history. Several soft tissue injuries since freshman year of college.  Add to the fact that his physical style of running makes him more susceptible to injuries. 

2. He is not dynamic enough in the passing game.

I just traded for fournette so my backfield looks like this:

RB1- S.Barkley

RB2- CMC

RB3- L. Fournette

RB4- A. Ekeler

If you're so sick of it maybe you shouldn't randomly inject it into threads yourself?

I'm pretty sure a lot of people wanted a running back later since the nfl does not value running backs at all anymore, whether they can catch or not.

With that said, he'll be compared to Kamara more especially with saints as a division rival.

I didn't think Fournette was worth that high of a pick so no. I was worried about his durability because he is such a physical runner, it was only a matter of time until he missed some games. 

I think CMC is a better fit for our offense and Fournette is a better fit for their offense though. Neither would do as well as they are currently doing for the other team.

I swung a trade at the beginning of my league for the #1 pick for Jordan Howard and a 3rd in that draft. I took Barkley.

Now I just traded for Howard again, giving up Locket, a 3rd round pick next year and a 3rd round pick in 2020. 

So I essentially got Saquan and Howard for Locket and 3 3rd round picks.

Nothing you said here is true. And why do you think I'm sick of it. You make me laugh. And if you think pooing me hurts my feelings I owned a plumbing company. Poo=money to me.

This coaching staff needs no possible players that would hint toward a run, run, pass, punt offense that we have seen here for far too long.

I valued CMC over Fournette before that draft, after their rookie years, and most certainly more now. 

 

So no, I wouldn't consider it, and nor would they.

I gave up Locket and M.Ingram for LF.  Perfect timing with CMC on the bye.  Got a feeler trade prop for Cam, hoping to hear soon.
