What if Adams and Fournette both make it to 8, who do you choose?

If we draft Fournette and Shula can't utilize him that would be the nail in his coffin. Thats coming from a guy who doesn't hate Shula.

Most def.  Neither choice is wrong, really.  I just wish we had more proof that he'd be utilized to the utmost.

This reminds of the time when 90% of the Huddle went insane and wanted a DT or safety over Cam Newton. Just silly. Fournette, Fournette, Fournette.

[SOJA]

Adams, Fournette would be a good get- but Adams is a better longterm choice for the current NFL

[pantherj]

I don't think I'll be able to recover if we pick Adams over Fournette. Just unacceptable. Treason.

We won't.  IMHO we'll take Barnett over Adams.  They're all great but I go back to thinking Adams is unlikely.

[Cary Kollins]

I lean towards Fournette but honestly could flip a coin and I'd be happy with either result.

I don't think Fournette will even be there at 8. I'll be stunned if he's there.

Fournette and it's not even close. We need TDs and someone to drag this offense down the field and make things easier on Cam, not just a better safety. You must be kidding. We need a monster racing down the field with the pill, not a safety giving us a little better coverage. God in heaven. Gettleman will trip over his own gut racing to the podium to draft Fournette over Adams.

I agree 100%

 

 

 

but everyone knows DG is sitting his ass in a chair in the war room going full autistic savant staff bringing him lunchmeat and cheese, uttering to himself..

 

"bring me Fournette"

I'm cautiously optimistic.  Jax just as likely if not moreso to go Allen/Thomas/Hooker/Howard/QB?/other?, and the Jets have more needs than stars in the sky.  Fournette would be such a waste there and make such little sense taking into consideration a relatively short lifespan of a RB for their long rebuild.

If Fournette slammed into Adams full speed you'd see Adams' head fly through the uprights.

You play in a pass first league now and in a division with big time playmakers on the outside. You need a secondary that can take away the ball. Jamal Adams falling to 8th is a no brainer pick just like Luke was.

Dang!  That's like someone asking me do you want a granddaughter or a grandson!!! 

It don't matter as long as they are healthy!!!!

Yes, I'm old!! No more kids just precious grandkids!!!!!!

Or, Adams!!!!!!
