    I read this a a statement not a guess... I went and moved him up my rankings significantly...

    I definitely think that would be interesting.

    Geezzzzz great RB yr, and it's not like Fournette is terrible. He just isn't a good teammate, due for a raise, he's on a bad team. Just no reason for them to keep him and other teams knew that.
    Ya this is part that is most unsettling for Jax. What a disaster of a franchise.

    Hoping that the Arizona Coyotes sign Fournette just so they can swirl down the bowl together.

    To me its not about the players picked after Fournette. The second part is just that, JAX is a disaster of a franchise. Picking Fournette ahead of those players was not a bad move from the franchise standpoint. It was the right pick.

    They have had quality player in their system and let walk or traded them. They have let parts of their team fall apart and did nothing to rebuild it properly or bridge the gap. The asset management has been poor. How Doug Marrone still has a job is waaaayyyy beyond me. He was a terrible coach in Buffalo; so I guess he actually is a perfect fit for the Jags.

    To be fair, any of those players picked after Fournette, had they gone to Jax, could be in the same position he's in today. We don't know.

    Doesn't make a RB at 4 the right pick.

    You're right. With how crappy the offense is it should have been something for their O-line.

    Or Mahomes/Watson

    To be clear, Neither of those players might be what they are now if they went to the Jags instead of their current organisations, but it was franchise malpractice to not honestly evaluate Blake Bortles and understand he was not the answer, when most of the rest of the NFL world knew he was not.

    Fournette wasn't a reach by any mean. It's just a waste of a pick that early for a franchise on the verge of doing well. If you pick an RB high, you must use them to win while they are cheap. Jax failed at that.

    I was about to write the same thing. They would have been an upgrade at QB for sure but its unlikely he would be the superstar he is today with the Jacksonville supporting cast.

    I think he probably means that in the sense of they have had one of if not the best RB over the last 4 years and haven't made it past the Divisional Round.
