I know this is unlikely cause of the money he’s making they want him on the field every waking moment but I think he is more dangerous not as the every down back.

I think a Fournette return to Louisiana would be a great thing for both sides.

Once we get a new OC in-house, we may have a better idea of which direction the offense is going.

Leonard is most effective in a gap-power blocking scheme.

Added bonus - Dougie Marrone was Fournette's coach in Jacksonville.

I've screamed this for years. Payton has tried to use Kamara like the Rams used Faulk, didn't work, never was going to work, he's nowhere near Faulk. Your correct with the bell cow. There's a few ways to go (1) a Derrick Henry type with a good backup to spell out (2) A thunder and lightning (Muncie and Galbreath) (3) A 3 headed monster that won us a SB. Kamara is good at what he is, more of a specialty back. I personally would look to trade him and revamp the backfield.

Fournette and Doug Marrone had bad blood in Jacksonville. Remember how Fournette’s time ended there? I don’t see him being an option.

I guess you could look at it with the belichick motto. Best to get rid of them two years too early than two years too late. But I think they’ll ride him til the wheels fall off

Well that depends on what was the cause. Two persons in new surroundings might yeild different results.

I don't get it Boston. But then I am rather thick headed. Was it the bad grammar? I know Kamara was woefully underutilized in TN. Please enlighten me!
