RB might be the most easily replaceable position in the NFL


Because most teams are built around their QB. Not so easy for a Bortles led team.

The Jags are moving on from Bortles. They'll draft a QB and go after another cheap vet as a bridge

No, there won't be.


Why wouldn't there be? Top end talent like him always get multiple chances.

I can name 10 teams who would easily take him. Some of which are playoff teams.

Kansas city
Houston
Baltimore
Miami
Buffalo
NY jets
Oakland
Philly
Washington
Tampa Bay

James Conner's 1500 yards from scrimmag

Steelers were 31st in rush ypg this year. I believe you win in football by running the ball and stopping the run.

Jags went from 1st to 18th in rush ypg. The record reflects that.

Steelers were second to last in rush ypg. No surprise they underachieved. Time to pay leveon. He has all the leverage

Off the top of your head lol?

And who said the jags are cutting him?
This is a smart move on the jags part even if they end up keeping him

Didn't feel like confirming many but since these two stood out:
Barry Sanders? He only scored 1 TD in his postseason career.
Kenneth Davis had a 3 TD game but he had 21 yards in it.

What Kenneth Davis from the Bills went off in a playoff game when Thomas was hurt. Davis had huge game one but didn’t get 3 TD?

Csonka was easy choice as Dolphins ran it at will

There are still playmakers in the nfl. You can’t see it because everyone has an oline and dline and some linebackers and a qb or whatever. Running backs hold the ball more than anyone except the qb. You need a great rb. The rb position is not dead

This is a disparate move by the jags(Coughlin) and if they are trying to motivate him it will backfire and destroy the locker room unless they plan on releasing him. Fournette is removed by one year from nearly carrying them to a super bowl.. he may need a reality check but trying to clawback 7 million over a game suspension due to a fight is loser for the jags. You need emotional players and if you’re sitting on similar offers from team you ain’t picking the jags after this bullshite

The Steelers were 22nd last season even with Bell. I'm sure you know that their lower ranking is because of offensive philosophy and you're just being dense

And talking about the Steelers is implying a comparison between Bell and Fournette which is stupid, anyways. Fournette may have elite talent but he hasn't produced at an elite level. Pretty good running backs are easily replaceable

I guess it was regular season game I’m thinking of with Davis going off when Thomas was hurt

There are plenty of team's willing to take on a talent like Fournette.


Fournette has done absolutely jack shite in teh NFL.

Nobody in the NFL gives a damn that he ran for 250 yards against Northwest Directional State 3 years ago in college.
