Chiefs Leonard Fournette on the trading block..should Veach bite? - Page 2

UChieffyBugger · 04-20-2020, 04:43 AM

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.

Hell no. He’s a mediocre running back. Would like this even less than the McCoy signing.

No, but you should talk to your mom about postnatal abortion.

His comp is basically a more naturally gifted Knile Davis. I'm sure Reid could get great production out of him, but he's injury prone and possibly a bit of a malcontent.

I'd pass on trading for him and even if he was on the open market, another team would surely offer him a lot more than I'd be willing to pay.

In short, no.

We have the offensive play makers, We could use a play making coverage LB and CB. We need cheap offensive players, like the interior line.

**RealSNR** · 04-20-2020, 07:30 AM

Bugger has a weird fascination with trading/spending on dumbass RBs with giant attitude problems whose best days are behind them.

Last year of a rookie contract and 5th year option before he'll want to get paid. Spend the pick on a guy you get the full 4 years of control.

D Williams is a very talented back when he's healthy. But the man has 1200 yards in his career. Let's not pretend it's nonsense to talk about bolstering our RB situation.
