He's average at best and some of you guys are acting like we just cut MJD in his prime lololol.

It's not about how good or bad Fournette was. Most of us realize he was a disappointment. It's about the complete and utter lack of depth we had behind him. We didn't draft his replacement and the most experienced guy we have in the backfield is a 5'8" 194 lb., injury prone, 3rd down back who has only played a full 16 game season, once in his career. People are upset, because this seems like a "knee jerk" move that wasn't thought out at all. We all expected Fournette to be gone after the season, but since the team completely ignored RB in the draft and since we already had poor depth at the position, we were prepared to go into the season with Fournette, like it or not. This move just doesn't make sense without a real replacement.
