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

Cook has all the skill sets to be a great back. Don't be a Fournette cockjock.

 

No, he doesn't. He needs a hole and the ability to get to the second level to succeed. Cook is so overrated. He had a ton of runs of zero or less yards.

In the right offense Cook could be absolutely lethal. Somewhere like Philly or New Orleans that can utilize all over the field, taking advantage of his pass catching ability and working him in space.

But Cook wouldn't do sh*t here in Carolina. Fournette is basically the prototype player you want at RB in our offense. And he's not even the guy I hope we draft but if we do, I won't be mad about it.

Cook would be a waste here. Fournette would likely be our franchises leading rusher if we take him by a long shot...

Where to start with how wrong your post is. Let me sum this post up in as little words as possible. Cover 3 is the norm in the NFL and a RB needs to catch as well as he runs to be successful with good defenses. Cooks quickness and route running set him apart from a guy that will get 3 yards a carry.

If you all love Fournette so much, you do realize he wouldn't see any time this year. Between Rivera's stuborness for veterans and Shula wasting talent due to inept play calling, do you really want him to waste here? Everybody loved CAP at one point too. Hence those are two reasons why we won't go RB at 8, we'll reach for a DE. I honestly see us trading back if Fournette fell to 8. But he won't. Cook will. Just sayin.

    • It’ll be interesting to see how the board falls I completely agree with you on TE for us The safety from Oregon would be the cherry on top for Evero’s defense/scheme.  If a OL’men is there that you love it would be very hard to pass up. This fan base seems to just see Walker as a stop gap but I wouldn’t be so sure. He’s the same age as Ekwonu. He’s had a much more impressive career arc/progression than Icky has. He’s the better pass protector. As far as I see it if Walker has a good year I’d bring him back over Icky. Ekwonu isn’t some elite franchise LT. Playing next to Lewis is going to be great for Walker much like it has been for Icky. We definitely need to get younger/cheaper on the OL though so for this reason alone it’s still top of my list come round 1 if board falls this way  Could also use another corner with Mike Jackson’s deal up after this season and needing a nickel but Corey Thornton looked really good in that role in the limited time we got to see him. However he’s coming off an achillies injury and you never know with those.  Then as mentioned above we do still have a need at WR. As far as “weapons” go it’s kind of a 2 man show with Tmac and Coker and neither is a burner. If Jordan Tyson is there at 19 and we can have a young WR group locked up for cheap that’s a huge advantage cap wise  And don’t forget linebacker. That clip in Devin’s Lloyd blueprint they used from Evero saying they need more intelligence there could’ve been left out for Wallace’s sake but it’s true. Wallace is lost in coverage. Pair a smart linebacker with Lloyd and that’s a group with Wallace and Cherelus being depth 
    • The fact that this is even a discussion is a testament of the level of front office badassery that's going on. 
    • Not always. LT was for the Giants. So was Ray Lewis. Von Miller was moreso than Manning his final year in the season that shall not be named. It's usually the QB, but not always.
