cbsholy 659 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Fournette not being labeled "Out" on Yahoo is costing me the chance to pick up a player on waivers this week (tonight). NFL.com / Ian Rapaport / CBSSports have already reported that he's out as of yesterday. Not sure what gives... Link to post Share on other sites
jsch08 267 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I would never trade this guy. Having him on my roster has more value as a reminder of what a bust he is than any WR2 would provide when I already have a few of them Link to post Share on other sites

The_Truth_Returns 444 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I think Week 10 would be the most logical return. I think the worry at that point for Fournette owners, is that Yeldon does a great job in his absence, and it becomes more of a 50/50 timeshare at that point. That wouldn't be good for anyone. Yeldon's looked great all year, smooth, and decisive. The only knock I could give him was his 20 yard run vs. KC last week, he made a terrible cut sideways directly into a trailing defender when he had only the Safety to beat in front of him. So his vision might not be the best. But none of the KC loss can be pinned on Yeldon or the backfield, it's all on Bortles in my opinion, with the 5 turnovers. Link to post Share on other sites
fantasymad 377 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Jax would be smart to rest him for the next 3 weeks (weeks 6 7 8) and give him the bye week to rest. Make sure he is healthy and ready for stretch run starting week 10. Link to post Share on other sites

If he comes back 100% after the bye and starts playing full games I think he will put up big numbers. The chances of that happening is something I’m not sure of Link to post Share on other sites

stay_woke 1,102 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Congratulations everyone we drafted the bust of the year. He has cost most owners 2 losses and wasted a bench spot the other 4 weeks and will continue to waste a bench spot for 4 more. Dont even want to think of all the players I had to pass on with this bum taking up a spot on my roster. Link to post Share on other sites

Illuminati 128 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 If I could hover around .500 I'd be fine with this but man my team is underperforming. Burkhead/Fournette going down has killed me. Link to post Share on other sites

Dont even want to think of all the players I had to pass on with this bum taking up a spot on my roster. I think of them every day. Saquan Barkley, Melvin Gordon, Christian McCaffrey. I really bought into him as this generational talent -- too big, too strong, too fast -- with a workhorse role to boot, in an offense completely devoted to feeding him the ball. Seems insane to take him before Gordon, but that's how high I was on Fournette. I play in 2 leagues every year. Last year my two 1st round picks were David Johnson and Odell Beckham. You know how those turned out. Now Fournette. Next year I think I'll just trade my 1st round pick for someone's 2nd round pick. Link to post Share on other sites
