Best running back draft 2017

Quote:It's funny that you say that about Cook. When I watch a Cook highlight film I see all the explosive plays. When I watch full games of him, i see him tackled for loss over and over until he breaks a big one.
You can thank that bad offensive line for that.

His best blockers were his LT, TE, and his FB most of his runs were designed to be outside and counters.

I don't know, clown. Maybe you should Google that.

This


I don't prefer either.


Also Christian is nowhere near a 3 down back, he's Reggie bush at his ceiling BUT he's probably more like Danny Woodhead at his ceiling and that is not a dis.


Take Jamaal Willams or mcnichols in the 4th and call it a day....., if we don't do something crazy like taking a rb at 4.

I see how ridiculous everything youre saying is, I still fail to see how googling readily available information such as the top prospects in a draft is ridiculous.

As I already explained I didn't want a Google concensus I wanted a Jags message board opinion.


If you don't want to add anything positive to the post them move along.

So if I Google "Jaguars message board opinion on 2017 RB class" I will find readily available information on that topic?

Quote:I don't follow college football so I wondering who is the best overall talent wise for a running back?  Please leave the Mixon incident on the sideline, im just asking about pure skills.


​I voted Fournette just based on the highlights I have watched of the four.  To me he seems to attack and run over guys with an aggressive running style. 
Mixon reminds me of a Justin Blackmon type of scenario.  No thanks

Blackmon in the 2nd round would have been a worthy gamble. Ignoring the red flags top 5 was a problem.

Overall I think it's Fournette and not even close.


I would put Fournette as a top 10 talent and Mixon, Cook, and Mcaffrey as just 1st round talents.


Drafting a RB top 5 is a gamble (Dallas worked out perfectly since they had the line already built).

Statistically last year, I believe Cook was the best! I mean people go look at film.. It's Cook and Fournette then everybody else...

The OP didnt ask for that specifically until after my first comment. But if you google "2017 Nfl draft running backs" youll find all the same info thats being posted on the board anyway. So either way this whole arguing against google thing isnt really working for you my man.

If injuries, fumbles and off the field stuff didn't matter I'd go


Cook, McCaffrey, Mixon, Fournette


With all them considered my list would be


McCaffrey, Mixon, Fournette, Cook

Why do you think Cook is better than Fournette?
