I think it says a lot about a player to skip this event if he's not injured. Speaks to his lack of competitiveness and confidence in his abilities.

If he knows he's as fast as we think, he should definitely prove it. His speed could push him up the draft board.

He skipped everything else this year, might as well skip the combine too.

Because he's not auditioning for the media jackass. He's auditioning for nfl scouts.

I think he should maybe sit out the drills that emhpasize shiftiness, he was clearly stiff and hesitant all year due to the high ankle sprain. 2015 tape proves he possesses all the lateral quickness a man his size could possibly have.

Will he even go to LSU pro day given that he left school/games early?

He has plenty to prove. He's coming off of an injury and there are some other really good backs in the draft, most notably Dalvin Cook. A lot of analyst believe Cook is a better fit for the NFL Fournette needs to come out and have a good showing to solidify himself as the number 1 back. LSU fans know he can catch but he didn't do a lot of it so that's something he can prove he does well and will really help his stock. He has plenty of reasons to be there.

Do yourself a favor and keep thoughts like this to yourself. It's like asking if the girl wanting to be the lead in a Broadway play should skip the auditions because she's good in prior performances

I believe Dalvin Cook will get drafted higher than Leonard.

You do realize that you are asking this question to a fan base who wanted to crucify him for sitting out a non-title game due to an injury.

I believe the GM that takes Cook over Fournette will rue that day.....

He should have skipped the weigh in, but he needs to participate in the rest.

LSU fans who hate on LF7 are the same ones who were leaving games at halftime this past season. He's not skipping the combine, and shouldn't. He knows dumb football fans are questioning his integrity and passion. He'll only use it as motivation at the next level. Guy is LSU through and through and the morons in our fan base all of a sudden hate him because he got hurt early in the season and decided not to risk further injury by sitting. Can't blame a kid for looking out for his future at that point. Get over it, and yourselves. LF7 will be a stud in the NFL, anyone who thinks otherwise is again, a dumb football fan.

You do realize that many in the LSU fanbase do not respect Prima-dona crap from players and that includes Fournette.
