Juke Rate. I could see him ending up anywhere from low end RB1 to RB3but damn do I have a hard time convincing myself to use a mid second pick on a Jags rookie RB as long as Bortles is the QB.What are we expecting of him? Leonard Fournette Fantasy #27 RB | Jacksonville Jaguars. Despite his inefficiency, he still finished as a consistent RB2, usually good for roughly 10 or so points a week.That seems a little high to me. Healthy. Throughout the offseason, there have been plenty of reasons to be concerned about Fournette’s fantasy outlook in 2020. Or is he more of a high end RB2? He may not have been productive in the passing game at LSU, but then again... even the wide receivers at LSU weren't productive in the passing game. What a travesty the rest rookie ADP has become.So there's a lot of hope for LF and the Jags in general. Leonard Fournette profile page, biographical information, injury history and news With that in mind, the Jags' passing game should be effective enough to open up the run game, even if its not strong enough to ensure consistent 7-man boxes.The line isn't the same in Jax but you have Coughlin running things now and he didn't draft Fournette 4th overall if he wasn't going to run him, run him some more, and run him again.SECOND ROUND? I believe 3/5 of the Jaguars starting O-line was injured for a good portion of the year. End of story. Rushing Yards. Thoughts of Zeke Elliot come to mind when I think of Fournette, but Dallas has a better O-line and I don't think a rookie season like that should be expected every yearNot loving him in the late 2nd or early 3rd unless you've already got a decent RB on roster. You’re kidding yourself if you think he’ll play all 16 games. Fantasy Points. What are we expecting of him?
Too many uncertainties aside from the certainty he likely won’t play 16 games.I won’t be considering him at his ADPHow does he not produce? Everything coming out of OTAs demonstrates to me that the Jags plan on using Fournette in the passing game as well. Fournette simply doesn't produce and once the injuries start piling up for an RB, I just have to steer clear.I have him at 23 above all the backs you mentioned.Yoooo! I have him in the 9-14 range for RBs just due to the volume of carries he should get.The Jaguars defense is damn fucking good. Drops. In my opinion, terrible coaching and inexperience (and more than a few instances of bad refereeing, but I try not to dwell on things the Jags can't control) led to a lot of backbreaking 3rd down penalties. Breakaway Percentage. Considering he should be the workhorse back in Jacksonville which gives value in a league full of RBBC situations, will he put up RB1 numbers? Considering the high volume, elite talent, dedication to building run-first offensive line/scheme, and decent passing game in support, I think that a healthy Fournette's absolute lowest floor is mid range RB2... but I fully expect him to be an RB1 in 2017.The jags have a very legit center though, if they do interior runs they could get a lot of production out of him.I think Fournette has a similar but marginally better situation (depending on your view of Bortles). Granted Bamas front 7 was the best in the decade but watch the tape of him struggle against them.Its ARob or AR15. TJ: The argument for Leonard Fournette is two-fold—he should largely maintain his role in Jacksonville from last season and he has unrecognized upside after falling well below expectation in the touchdown column in 2019. Even if Bortles throws some painful turnovers (even with the improvement I expect, that's a guarantee) and the offense stalls at points, the defense will keep the opponent's lead from reaching such a point that the Jags are forced to abandon the run.I agree with most of this, except:Where Gurley had no QB or any WRs of note to help open up the field, Fournette will have at least some semblance of a passing game to support him. He … He'll be more boom or bust weekly due to his poor agility against good defensive fronts like Hou. The Jags offensive line is not good at all. For Gurley's last season, he had an awful offensive line, no supporting passing game due to an inexperienced QB and zero talent at WR, but also a top notch defense keeping the team in games long enough to allow the team to utilize the run game deep into games.I get what you mean, but at the same time, Maurice Jones-Drew led the NFL in rushing with Luke McCown and rookie Blaine Gabbert at QB.They Drafted a FB as well so he can run a la AP style with a lead blocker and just hit the hole with a full head of steam every time.
