Perfect Comp for Fournette..

[WOW!!]

I've seen some of you compare Leonard to AP and Bo.. But everytime i watch his videos he reminds me of Stephen Davis more than anybodu else..

 

Same body type and upright running style, same cutting ability and breakaway speed.. I think Fournette looks for more contact than Stephen did thoe..

[Daddy_Uncle]

Why the need to compare players. Just let him be Fournette. Nobody knows what he will be in the NFL until it happens

[Kevin Greene]

Davis was an awesome FA signing that paid big dividends.

Don't want him with the 8th pick overall.

[arbnranger]

I can see some comparisons. 

Guys with that body/running style are fun to watch, that's for sure. 

[LinvilleGorge]

Yeah, I can see the comparison.

Fornette is much more talented than Davis.  Adrian Peterson is more like it even if AD is shifter and Fornette is bigger more powerful.    Now, just wondering if Fornette will be hurt like AD has been much of the time.

We'll see if he's better than Davis or not. Davis was good because he had a knack for following blockers, finding the hole and the end zone. He was powerful but don't think that was his defining attribute.

He's a RB. It's not a question of "will he get hurt?" 

It's a question of when. Those will be good days, when fans start calling him injury prone.

Peterson was remarkably durable prior to tearing his ACL in 2014. Prior to that he'd only missed 9 games in his entire career.

because were fans and its a projection and its fun to see who reminds us of who and its the offseason and there's little else to do as diehard fans and some like metorphors and parallelism and some don't care about the first responder who says something in contrast just to get pie.

see? Wtf. My phone is 5 years old, is a windows phone.. Didn't pick up the quote, and then didn't register the @... I lost so much pie

 

[GoobyPls]

Fournette is WAY better prospect than Davis

 

He reminds me of Mcgahee pre injury

[bobcat91]

Fournette is a freight train looking to punish anyone in his way, but he also doesn't get caught from behind in the open field much.  He is a perfect fit for the clock grinding power ball we want to play.  He keeps our offense on the field and our defense off the field.  That makes both better.  He is going to be a star.

I'd rather everyone stick with lazy comparisons to keep things simple.

 

Fournette = AP

Cam Newton = Michael Vick or Warren Moon or Randall Cunningham

All black QB's = Cam Newton

Christian McCafferey = A scrappy gym rat mixture of Toby Gerhart and Wes Welker

 

[PantherWake]

Fournette is closer to Blount imo
