Leonard Fournette on the trading block..should Veach bite?
A few folks have mentioned this on another thread but I thought it deserved a thread of it's own as media sources, both national and Chiefs associated, have linked the Chiefs to Fournette HERE and HERE
Now, Fournette was obviously a first round pick with tons of hype and potential when he came out and there can be no denying he was sensational in his rookie season HERE where his 1000 yards rushing, 300 yards receiving and 10 TD's helped to guide the Jags to the playoffs where he again showed his class by getting four TD's and 242 yards in the games he played. The next season as we know Blake Bortals got exposed and the Jags were a mess. He missed half the season due to a ****ling leg injury but still managed to get 400 rushing yards, 185 receiving and six total TD's. Then came last year HERE and my lord he looked devastating. Yet again he got 1000 yards but this time he notched FIVE HUNDRED receiving yards as well. Way more receiving yards than Damian Williams had last year and more than what Kareem Hunt had in his rookie season. I think we could probably get him for a modest pick tbh because I think the Jags are gonna try to tank for Lawrence...so probably a 4th rounder for next years draft could do it? Who knows...but a 25 year old talent like this doesn't fall into your lap very often. He'd cost us 4m for this season and then we'd have that fifth year option too. IF he's sensational in those two years then we tag him for another. Three years of Fournette without having to pay major bucks sounds tempting to me as I think he would cause absolute mayhem facing those empty boxes. |

He's averaged 3.9 ypc in his 3 NFL seasons and has yet to manage to score 20 total TD's with all his rushing and receiving prowess. And he's apparently a giant pain in the ass in the locker room according to a number of people. So, yes, he's overrated. You suck at this. Last edited by TomBarndtsTwin; 04-20-2020 at 09:13 AM.. |

My opinion is HARD PASS. He doesn't seem to have what he did in college, and he seems stiff as hell in the NFL. (No bend in his game)

Yeah, but this Chiefs fan said Fournette looks impressive! Should I trust him? Or should I trust you, a devoted Jaguars fan?????
I can't decide! |

This isn't the back I want but the Chiefs finished in bottom of the NFL in rushing yards, lets not act like we're set.

Other than being an injury-prone overpaid RB with a bad attitude... it seems like Fournette is not versatile enough as a pass catcher or fast enough to play in Andy Reid's offense.

The Chiefs are now a churn and burn team at RB. Look at the Pats during their dynasty - they always had a RB who looked great. Then, they leave for money and never seem to live up to it.
Draft a RB every few years in round 3 or 4. Sign promising FAs for cheap. We have no business giving up a lot of capital - either draft picks or money - for a position that doesn't correlate strongly to success. |
