Dalvin Cook Blows Away Bench Press, Fournette does nothing...

[countryboi]

Slow down a bit dude your bias is showing...both of these players will make fine running backs in the NFL

[Bronn]

fwiw IIRC JStew did 28 reps... do these bros even lift?

Samaje Perrin did 30, so that means he's going to be even better than Dalvin, right?

Possible if you've seen him play.

Hahahahah

Sorry, but hahahahahahaha

Some people need to go back and watch some FSU Games, Eveeeery down not just the few big highlights. Watch the whole scheme of things, the OL etc.

Take away FSU's OL and Cook wouldnt even be mentioned in the top 20.

Fantastic straight linespeed. His change of direction hasnt even been all up to what the hype. Go watch when he has to cut change directions etc. That said 4.3 speed deosnt help much and people catch up real fast. Now when those FSU OL set up some massive holes like Dallas makes (so big Fua can romp through) he uses that straight line burners to take it for a big gain. 3-4 of those a game and his stats look fantastic. He's not going to be able to break big tackles from NFL DL or LBs.
His pass catching is one of the best out there by a running back to come out in awhile. But if you've watched the Panthers before.
When the Fug do we throw to the RBs. Rivera Shula and the gang love power smash mouth runners, think there was a stat awhile back our RBs were targeted last or bottom 3 in the NFL in the passing game. So why in the flipping Fug would we want a guy who his big thing is he can catch the ball out of the backfield better than anyone.
Ill take the 240 pound between the tackles physical freak.
Calling him over rated etc because his injuries.
AP and Gurley say hi, AP played in just as many college games and Gurley played less

The Cook vs Fournette is like arguing Gurley vs Gordan the other year. And most everyone would take Gurley for our offense

By the ops stupid ass logic, this would be correct

Bench press helps running so much

B/C he's fat. He's going to be a bust. Dalvin isn't. We need Cook.

yea because football is played in underwear,  I'll take Fournette all day.

[ecu88]

Running on your arms is tuff and Dalvin is the rb who can skrong arm his way through defenderz. Fournette is noodle armz.

But how much can he curl?

[Burnout189]

Holy s^&%, Samaje Perine got 30 reps?!? That's disgusting strength for a RB right there.

[top dawg]

This OP...

[bababoey]

Why don't they check the measurable that really count?  How many cock push ups can he do?? That determines who will be the best running back.

[Mojo]

If you had a legitimate bone to pick by watching film I'd have no problem with it but thinking a lack of a few bench press reps negates the ability to be a great football player is just a terrible hypothesis.

or we need to just forget about drafting runningbacks at 8 because it's a stupid idea
