Bormio Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 Apparently his behavior has become intolerable, and the Jags may be looking to part ways with him. $20 talent, 2 cent brains. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUFORDGAWOLVES Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 Talking to my buddy in Jax before this blew up and issues with Fournette, picking when to play and practice. Issues going back to LSU. @RedZone, heard anything? BGW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolebull813 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 Probably told his whole life everything revolves around him and he will be accommodated. Big guy on campus in high school and college but nothing like that in the pros. Just 1 of 53 and nothing more. Can’t handle that I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolebull813 Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 It’s tough. Some people are just not cut out to be professionals. I’m not saying he is doomed for life, but it’s gonna make it that much harder to convince another team that you won’t pull the same shit with them. He doesnt have T.O. talent where they will put up with the garbage regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawgGoneIt Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 At least he didn't call out pollsters for not gifting his high school team a MNC. Nor did he tweet about committee rankings and stuff in college. Idk. Maybe if he had gotten all that out of his system before the pros? Ha. Downward. We're spiraling downward. Or to coin Belly's phrase... trending down. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderRam Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 This thread makes me think back to the disagreements I had years back with some on this board (and others) over Zeke Elliott, Fournette and Gurley. I always felt Fournette wasn't on the same level because he's pretty one-dimensional. Never really knew the extent of issues over his attitude, though, which makes it even more of a landslide IMO. I admit that Gurley is every bit as advertised and has been a fantastic fit in the Rams offense (once McVay took over). But I still like Zeke the best of the 3 because of what he does w/o the ball in his hands. He just does everything well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would he waste his time on that losing team behind a trash OL. They signed ereck waste people time flowers. If I was fornette I'd want out too. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't speak for his locker room behavior, but skill wise, he still is the big man on campus. He has averaged 3.7 yards a carry in his career, is overweight most of the time, can’t stay on the field because he’s hurt every time he gets a hangnail, doesn’t have any extraordinary skill set (average speed, field vision), isn’t a threat as a receiver out of the backfield, and doesn’t make people miss or get yards after contact. he is not a stud running back in any sense if the word. Not sure why you think he is except to be contradictory. His attitude is just the icing on the shit cake to be honest. He is below average in every measurable a rb is assessed by. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
