Quote:I don't think it's so much as information being leaked out of the building. I just think it's an easy argument and case to make at this point. It's not a stellar QB class at the top. And our running game has been average or worse since at least 2013. Yeldon doesn't seem to have enough in him. Ivory was a concern last year between the injuries and ball security. Robinson is gone I believe as well. And they were eyeing that Murray kid that's left OAK for another team already as well. 

 

So they're pretty much looking at the top offensive prospect in the entire class to help bolster an offense that can't seem to get out of it's own way. We had a solid defense last year. We added to it this off-season. So it should take less pressure off the front office to address any glaring needs on that side. When you start seeing people compare Fournette to Peterson as a prospect. Your ears tend to perk up a bit. He has a rare blend of size and speed. Like someone pointed out before. When you get up close to this kid he looks like a damn linebacker instead of an actual running back.
