Quote:Fournette is the definition of a bell cow. Hes an every down back. Whether that transitions to the NFL....thats too be seen. For me whats interesting is what they will do with Ivory and Yeldon. Ivory is Fournette, but not as talented. They play the same way, Yeldon would be a good compliment to Fournette on 3rd downs, plus is cheap. 

 

Maybe they explore a trade with Ivory. But I find it hard to see the purpose of Fournette being spelled by Ivory. 

Who's going to want to take on Ivory's contract though? After this season, his contract only continues to get higher in $$.

 

There's an out in the contract after this season though. It'll have a $3mil dead cap hit, but it'd be better then paying him $6mil+++ per year to be a back up RB.

 

I see us rolling with all 4 of them this season and moving on from Ivory next year.

 

Yeldon is the 3rd down back. He's far and away the best pass catching RB and best pass blocking RB on this roster. Even with Fournette added.
