    RB is the most devalued position in the league...meanwhile, Jerruh just signed Zeke to a 90 mil contract and Dak is playing on the tag. Granted Zeke likely won't go through the entirety of his contract, but still, great work Dallas.

    Yep, this is why you never, ever see the Pats and Belichick spend big money on rbs, they just plug and play, been doing it forever and its worked pretty well.

    1) Fournette has been banged up his whole time in Jax - although he only missed 1 game last year. Cut bait and get fresh legs.
    2) Since Shad Khan bought the team, they have bee arguably the worst run franchise in the league.
    "After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""

    Fournette was such a beast, too. I know he has had off field issues too.

    The league wants guys like Kamara, McCaffrey. They can catch the ball. And in the run game, they can cut through the hole. Defenses are so good at plugging holes. The holes aren't open long. And the holes aren't always where they were designed to be. Fournette was Tom Coughlin wanting to play ball control, field position, and defense. Teams are now looking for versatility and fit. Having a guy who can carry between the tackles 20 times per game is not valued right now.
