This is one draft scenario I do not want to see, but there are a number of mock drafts that have Carolina picking Leonard Fournette at 8. The last thing we need is to face Newton and Fournette on the same team twice each year.
LSU fan, yes. LSU homer, I don't think so. Fournette was injured this year, and I happen to think that last year he was easily the most dominant player on the LSU team and indeed in the SEC. However, in most mock drafts at this time, Jamal Adams is picked ahead of Fournette.
I understand that the running back position has been downgraded in recent years. But I think that in the postseason workouts Fournette is going to remind everyone of how special of an athlete he is and will go higher than the mock drafts currently show him going. Come draft day, he will be at the top of many draft boards.
