Quote:I disagree. Unless Fournette's long term health is an issue, I think he's the better player. Both offer than homerun speed but Fournette is bigger and more powerful.

Apart from being better at trucking people,what does Fournette do better than Cook as a running back?


The way I'd look at is there is around 7 or so main attributes that go into being a running back. I'd give the edge to cook in the majority of them


Acceleration- Cook

Speed- Cook

Vision- Cook

Agility- Cook

Power- Fournette

Receiving- Cook

Pass blocking - Cook/Fournette (I'd say Cook but others would say Fournette)


Fournette is still an elite prospect of course, can't wait to see him play. Just if you are going to draft a running back that high you may as well get the better one. Think the 3rd or 4th is where all the value is for one though.
