you are forgetting 2 of the greatest defensive players ever at LSU.
AJ Duhe 70's
Leonard Marshall 80's

Derrick henry rushed for less than 100 yards 5 times.
go look at the rush defenses of the teams fournette put up big yards against and vice versa. it would serve you well not to view everything in a vacuum. but, alas, you are pretty hopeless and clearly a very big LF fanboy who is incapable of rational thought

nfl GMs do not draft players based on their stats either. leonard may be more talented but he did not have a better season than henry

Player's success is based off of production. Are you being serious roght now?

he played better in his games against tougher competition. again, number of games is irrelevant. popular opinion is not affected by total number of games either. you know what henry didn't do? lay a giant egg in the biggest game of his life in november.

You have to be kidding.
LF played in 3 less games.
Henry failed to get 100 yards 5 times.
Lf failed to get 150 yards 3 times.
Only a football novice would say Henry was better because he had more total yards.

when was the last time Patrick Peterson led any league in INTs? Please quit while you're behind

And there it is. Now we know why youre stupid. Please when did henry go up against Bama's defense? You dont understand football if you blame lf for the Bama games. But hey youve been stupid this entire thread.

To be fair, CB is probably the only non-line position where a player's value isn't necessarily shown in the stats. A great lockdown corner often won't have many INTs because no one will throw in his direction.

Don't know how far back you want to go, but those who have researched the history of this period, 1900-1910, easily Doc Fenton, who led the Tigers to an unbeaten record in 1908.
No Heisman Trophy existed then, but Fenton surely would have won it easily if it did.

I think you're too stupid to even have a discussion with. Look at the rush defenses each played. Then compare how many yards each had against the top 5 rush defenses each played. Stop focusing on total number of games. I know it's difficult to think outside the box, but I'm making it really easy for you. Leonard had sub 100 yard games on the top 3 rush defenses he played (Ole Miss, Aarkansas, Alabama). Henry put up 210 against LSU, 147 against Wisconsin, 95 against Arkansas, 127 on Ole Miss, and 189 on Florida. Fournette had his biggest games against terrible defenses (Syracyse, Auburn, Texas tech, Eastern Michigan).

I thought he was paid for his stats though? I never said any of what you just assumed. I responded to a very direct comment made by you, which was ignorant. Players are not drafted by stats, never have been

If you knew football youd know being down so quick is what took lf out of arky game. He had 4.8 ypc. better than Henry's 3.5. Educate yourself

And again, cbs is the position where if you play well you dont get chances to make ints. The fact that you act like lack of ints means a cb isnt playing well enough to earn a contract is telling.

I think you need to educate yourself. Henry came up biggest when it mattered most. Leonard feasted off of weak teams. It's sad but true, whether you care to admit it or not

Please point to where i said players are drafted by stats. At no time dod i ever say that. I said a players level of success is determined by production and stats. I said GM PAY players for stats.generally Nfl players that dont produce dont get big contracts.
Players that dont produce statistically arent considered successful. Why is tim tebow and cam newton considered 2 of the best? Why are you saying henry was better than lf?

So the size of a players 2nd contract isnt tied to production?
Posted on 12/5/16 at 6:07 pm to lsufball19
I think he's arguing that in the NFL a player will get paid on his 2nd contract based largely on his statistical production in the NFL. Obviously college stats aren't very important to NFL GMs when drafting - more about potential, because as you've pointed out, stats can be skewed based on beating up on a bad team but getting stopped by a good one
