Fournette is overrated. He isn't worth a top 10 pick (no RB is except AP and LF7 isn't another AP). Drafting him while we have a bunch of other needs would be stupid as frick.

He is big, strong, and fast. However, he doesn't have a lot of wiggle to him. If the hole is there, he's gonna hit it like a beast. He needs to incorporate more shiftiness and timing if running room is slow to develop. I love him but not on level with AP at this stage or when AP was a junior.

You're not the first one to say it. More than half of non-LSU posters agree with this statement.

LF will be a great NFL running back. Just because the Saints have much bigger needs does not make him overrated. If we had a top 5 defense and our O-Line was set, everyone would want him here.

Drafting Leonard will keep the Saints relevant after Drew leaves



Not worth a top ten pick? You're a fool

Tingle, you're being obtuse. Fournette is like if Reggie Bush had Earl Campbell's illegitimate child.

I will take Fournette and hope that we get rid of our whole stable of way below average runningbacks including the guy we wasted 2 draft picks to get in the 1st round.

If the Saints pass on LF7, I hope he goes to a team in our division and whoops our defenses' arse twice a season. Of course I hope the saints win those games but seriously, he is a once in a 20 years type football player.

What LSU guy that everyone on this board in the last 3 years wanted has not panned out? Tyrann? Odell ? Jarvis ? E Reid? I've seen everyone want these guys and they haven't disappointed. Leonard will be that next LSU player we didn't get just like the others that is one of the best at is position.

It'll be an unpopular opinion on this website but its the truth. He doesn't do enough when the offensive line isn't controlling the POA. He struggles to create for himself which is what made a guy like AP so great. If he goes to a team with an average or worse line drafts him in the top 5 that GM will be fired within 3 years.

I wouldn't say he's overrated. But the saints have many needs I agree saints should pass on him

You're a fool and here's why. They guy is just flat out bigger strong faster than what you've seen. Not to mention, unlike Ingram etc, he's not been over used. So quit being a dick and just admit this kid is insanely good.

This doesn't quite go over the "I wouldn't draft Odell Beckham in the first 4 rounds" bar of LSU whining stupidity but it's pretty bad.

I don't agree. The stuff he does in the open field and his exceleration past DB's is rare. I think the Saints need to give Lasco a shot.

I love Leonard Fournette,but if we draft this dude in the 1st round, I'll be furious. Sure, the stable of Ingram and Fournette would be tons of fun in Madden but our OL is just not doing the job right now. On top of that, we need another TE, a QB, LB and CB.

He will get stuck with the Browns if they somehow don't manage to fire their coach again and go searching for the umpteenth QB to turn around that franchise.
