Yeah because NFL teams get every pick right every time. God forbid someone breaks the groupthink.

LF is in rare air there.

When you pick stats to make your point, make sure it doesn't apply to the person you're making the argument for.
This is correct. But Fournette isn't getting drafted in the top 10 because of this year, which really wasn't all that great due to his ankle injury. He has another year of incredible production in 2015 where he showed how dynamic he can be.

If Mixon weren't a POS, he'd be going in the first round for sure. Definitely behind Fournette, but possibly ahead of Cook.
I agree that Mixon is a first round talent and a very good player. Just need to see more for me to put him above Fournette.

Fournette has good balance. What he doesn't have is loose hips to capitalize on it. Fournette runs upright all throughout his body. Mixon has much more flexibility and can make cuts that Fournette can't dream about

Sometimes you need to look at the position instead of the athlete. Fournette is an incredible athlete, no one is denying that. I just think Mixon is a more polished, NFL-ready back. There's physical trade offs in every individual player but where there isn't trade offs is in having a fundamental knowledge of the game and how to capitalize on it. Fournette doesn't have that yet. Mixon has it. He sees blocks before the develop, he's patient, and he understands the game. When lined up at WR, you see Mixon with incredible footwork and even adding head fakes. The dude is at a different level compared to every other back in this class.

Mixon isn't close to Fournette or Cook.
What kind of thread is this shite?
Troll hard brother. My gawd people act like they have forgotten Fournette's sophomore year and a few games this year while playing injured. When he is 100% that mother fricker was being compared to the best to ever play.
Get this shite thread out of here immediately.

You're right. He's on a different level. He's 100% NFL ready. There will be little to no adjustment period for him.
This isn't a troll thread. It's a hot take.

It's all within the scope of agility; both guys have their strengths.

Seems like the 'plausible deniability' is getting fainter by the day.
Septums don't breakdown film & scout players. Well done, impressed
(You're wrong about this still though, he ain't in LF's zip code)

It doesn't seem any fainter. I can still read it perfectly fine

Septim*
Tiber Septim is a skyrim legend. I'm sure he could've broken down film. The same goes for anyone in the Septim family.

I never claimed he was. Leonard is from New Orleans. Idk where Mixon is from.
ETA: duh.

Regardless if what i said is true or not, Im suspending the investigation & staying on topic out of respect to your quick wit

Shame he's a POS. He'll thrive in Miami with the rest of the thugs.

This is the most ridiculous thread I've ever seen on this board.
There isn't ONE GM in the whole league who would take Mixon over any of the top backs including McCaffery.

He may be a POS
