He wishes. Bus is a Hall of Famer who is the 7th all time rushing leader in the history of the NFL. He had great vision and feet for a man playing at 265 lbs.
He'll never stay healthy now. It looks like it'll just be nagging injuries the rest of his career. He may be able to go 4 games without injury at best.

Is there a stat for time or yards to first contact?
Does it matter? Our other RBs don’t have as bad a YPC.
Are you watching this travesty?

Yea. And? Lol
I would still assume our supposed franchise starting RB would have a higher YPC than any other RB on the roster.

Why? He's the target when on the field and gets all the run up the middle calls.
Fournette is a bust.
What kills me is that we passed on TWO franchise QBs to draft that undisciplined bum.
Fournette was selected as a building block around our GM's hand picked franchise QB.
It was a house of cards that has collapsed on itself. The GM's plan imploded on the QB, causing misstep after misstep in following through with it.
Without that mindset, we could and should (in hindsight of course) have drafted very differently.
Not even in hindsight. 99% of jags fans last year before the draft didn’t believe Blake was going to be their franchise qb of the future. Yet our idiot front office apparently did. A simple poll last year would’ve shown that people don’t want Blake as the future qb and that people don’t want Fournette 4th overall. Oh well.
Also, drafting a rb 4th overall doesn’t have to be stupid if you’re getting Elliot or Barkley. But Fournette is a below average RB with a bad attitude. It’s just bad all over the place.
