re: Another RB in the draft

Fournette is the obvious jewel of the upcoming draft at the running back position but I don't think many people realize just how deep this RB class maybe. 2017 will be the draft of the RB if all the top underclassmen come out. Fournette, Dalvin Cook FSU, Nick Chubb UGA, Christian McCaffrey Stanford, Royce Freeman Oregon, James Connor Pitt, Joe Mixon/Samaje Perine Oklahoma, Elijah Hood UNC, Wayne Gallman Clemson.
That list doesn't even include the nation's leading rusher DJ Pumphrey (San Diego St) who is a smaller scat back type (5'9 180) & an excellent receiver who you can put in the slot or line him up out wide.
Personally, I think Nick Chubb is the best fit of them all in the Saints offense. He is a stronger, faster version of PT. Great between the tackles, great in the screen game & very solid in pass pro. He doesn't have Fournette's size but pound for pound he is probably the strongest weight room wise of this entire group of backs.
