I'd also be interested to see how Fournette would run in an offense where the other team doesn't know that they are running every down.  It seems like whenever teams played LSU, there was ZERO threat of a passing game.  He could be a destroyer in our offense.

Could be.....I'll also be interested in their speeds at the combine.  One other thing I really like about Cook is his pass catching ability.  If we were to shed Hill, and have a backfield of Rex/Gio/Dalvin, no defense would be able to play tendencies on run/pass, because all three are legit threats at both.  I'm not sure about Leonard on that aspect.....and have not really paid attention to blitz pick up by either.  Bottom line, I'd take either of them over Jeremy Hill at this point.
