LEONARD FOURNETTE

RB, LSU

<p style="margin-left:0px;">Sorry Chris Ivory and T.J. Yeldon, but when Leonard Fournette is on the board, it’s going to be hard for the Jacksonville Jaguars to pass up on him. Ivory is 28 and been dealing with an undisclosed illness to start the season while Yeldon has yet to look like a legitimate starting running back at the next level.

<p style="margin-left:0px;">The LSU prospect is the complete package at running back. He has the speed, vision, acceleration and size at 6’1” and 235 pounds. He isn’t afraid of contact and has a vicious stiff arm. The only concern with Fournette heading into the NFL is his ankle injury which he’s been playing on for the majority of this season. An ankle isn’t the biggest problem, but scouts will still do their due diligence on him.

<p style="margin-left:0px;">Fournette could give the Jaguars that complete running back to take some pressure off of Blake Bortles and the passing game. Sure, the Jaguars could also go with a defensive player here, but how can you pass up on who many are considering the best running back prospect in the past few years?
