According to ESPN, Fournette is not one of college football's top 50 players.

I guess he'll just have to return one more year to prove them wrong.

this is based off this seasons performance. so using that no he wasnt top 50. when it comes to NFL he is top 10 and thats all that really matters

More surprised Jamal Adams isnt on there instead of Fournette. Fournette probabaly not on there because he missed a few games.

Maybe because outside of one game he was very average this year.

It was performance based, I don't see how Fournette performed well enough this year since he missed half the season.

I sometimes wonder if ESPN trolls LSU. Because it would be soooo easy.

Lighten up, Francis, it's based on 2016 performance. LF was hurt and was second on his own team in rushing yards..... by over 400 yards.

He can't stay on the field. His draft stock will suffer because of injury concerns.

ESPN commentary is like 'The View' for football fans.

My main concern with Fournette going forward is durability and that he isn't a shifty runner but looks to take on tacklers head on.

Why would he be in the top 50 when he's not the top RB on his own team???

eh i think it is like a seasonal power ranking

LF7 has been hurt most of this season.

They were basing it on performance. I don't think he would have made the top 100 either this season. He was injured. LF will do much better if they come out with a draft ranking.

Let's see if the TRUE measuring authority "The NFL" feels the same.

Honestly I think he is a bit overrated. If I were head coach I'd like Guice better. Just my style.

The Leonard Fournette that played against Florida wasn't a top 200 player. What are your panties in a bunch about?
