Based on performance in the exact same offense as the other 2.

Fournette has the physical makeup, but his vision and lateral movement has yet to evolve, as others have said. Will it come? I hope with more reps and experience, but who knows.

I've never seen lateral quickness and vision come. Maybe I'm wrong, but I just don't see it.

He just broke the freshman record for rushing yards in a season.

What? Ridley? You serious?

Ridley JR year - 249carries for 1147yards. 4.6ypc.

LF freshman year - 187carries for 1034yards. 5.5ypc.

So Ridley had 62 more carries, but just about 100yards more than LF did his freshman year. LF > Ridley. And it's not that close either.
