We skipped RB the class BEFORE Fournette. Like to recap how that worked out for us?



If I recall that was more of a promise to him.

They skipped one in 2016 too and only got 1 in 2017, and you saw what happened last year. Ugly

RB was NOT out problem last year... so not sure where you are trying to run with that one.

Skipping in 2016 made 2017 a year in which we needed two very good running backs. We signed one - and Helaire is okay, but he’s not a feature back for a championship level team. It was the combination of no backs in 16 and 1 journeyman back in 17 that was the problem.

No one here is suggesting we skip RB in 2020 and just sign one three star next year.
