If Fournette is there at #9, the Bengals Take Him

We paid Hewitt, play the frickin' guy. When we did play him we were able to run well. The coaches never seem to
stick with what is working. Re-watch the Bronco game last year, early on we just moved their D-line at will. Then
we got behind and started panicking.

Still, i am with you on Dalvin Cook. He makes defenders miss and can take it the distance on any given play with
his vision in the open field and dynamic playmaking ability. Fournette needs that initial inside hole and than he is
gone. Defenses just need to gang tackle to stop him, unlike Cook.

Abso-frickin-lutely brother!  I just don't get that, especially the way this team struggles in run blocking.

Yeah, they each have their strengths and weaknesses, as do most backs.  I like Cook as the more complete player at 9, but I would rather have a dynamic defender at 9.  All I've maintained is if I were picking RB at 9, it'd be Dalvin Cook.  Devonta Freeman was another FSU back I wanted, and Cook is better than him.  I'm just not sold on LF.....unless you have a punishing oline to go with his punishing style.
