He is much shiftier than Fournette. As I said in the other post, he is better at making defenders miss. He's a "slippery" runner, whereas Fournette is a punishing runner.


Speaking of Fournette, Pro Football Focus stated "He added some wiggle to his game forcing a missed tackle every 3.5 carries in 2015... His 94.3 rush grade led the nation, as did his 85 total missed tackles forced." As I said Guice, I agree is shiftier than Fournette, however Fournette is no stiff himself. He is not just power, he can make tacklers miss as well. That is what makes him such a generational running back, Power, speed, size, great hands, intelligence. He has the complete package.

If LSU was a passing team, Fournette would surprise you with how great his hands are. In fact out of high school they said he could be a great wide receiver because of his hands. Like I previously stated, how many drops do you remember him having? Maybe one? As with the tightends at LSU, you can't show your hands if they won't pass you the ball. Frustrating!!!!!
