If we take Fournette. Do we actually use him?

No player not named Julio Jones is worth trading the farm for to move up in the draft, especially not a running back with a history of injuries and what seems to be lack of will to play. Dude doesn't love the game, and if things get difficult, how long does he stick around? C

Stewart will be the starter game one, unless he is injured.   There is more to being a running back than just running.  He has to learn to pass block, know the plays, follow the lead blockers, and whatever else a running back does.  Now whether he is the starter in game 8 or 10 is anyone's guess.  But unless Fournette proves to be the greatest ever, he will be worked into the rotation.

I would be shocked if Fournette doesn't beat out Stewart for the starting job. Stewart is a glorified FB at this point in his career 

Are you stupid or something?

Please tell me you aren't this retarded. 

Exactly how is he washed out or a "glorified FB?"

Fournette would be extremely lucky to even sniff out J-Stew's starting job. Fournette isn't even close to J-Stew's pass blocking, and definitely not from running shotgun.

people enjoyed themselves mocking op for this thread but i think it's a legit point. Deangelo had to sit behind Deshaun "1 yard and a fumble" Foster for 2 seasons when it was absolutely obvious to everyone that he was a star. Ron shares that mindset more often than I'd like.

but it's going to be true no matter who we draft so it doesn't matter if it's Fournette or Garrett or McCaffrey.

Disagree about McCaffrey.

CM definitely wouldn't start as the starting running back over Stew IMO but, considering Rivera's predilections as you accurately state above, due to his multiple skills he'd likely immediately get plenty of downs as a sub-RB, slot receiver, and kick returner even though he wouldn't be a "starter".

Is selective highlights supposed to sway my opinion? Is that how you "evaluate" propspects? Looking up YouTube highlights LOL

 

Why don't you show highlights of Stewart trying to get around the edge? You know when a DT chased him down. Why not bring up his 3.8 ypc? That's the great shotgun runner your touting, 3.8 ypc 

 

Stewarts best days are behind him, your delusional fanboy who continually spouts stupid threads that you copy and paste from YouTube scouts.

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By Seltzer · Posted

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!

      You do know the biggest military base in the US is located just an hour from Raleigh in Fort Bragg right? Military families are family oriented. A hour drive to games is nothing compared to traveling 3 hours to Charlotte.   Cmon man there is nothing happening in Western Carolina other than Charlotte. I only go west for outdoor activities and some nature/mountain views.

      Okay, who is coming. And how hard is it going to be to get tickets? I’m currently living in Germany a couple hours north of Munich. Happy to help facilitate a cheaper experience for help getting tickets lol.
