Pearmiser 3 Posted October 7, 2018 When I started him, he left the game early. Resulted in a handful of points. Gets hurt pick up Yeldon. Yeldon has a weak game and I lose by 2 points. Fornette starting again, leaves game early so minimal points. I had to drop Yeldon that week to make room for other players. Guy I'm playing this week gets Yeldon off waivers. Result is this guy is going to beat me by a couple points. Not only was he a wasted first round pick. But then screws me when he starts. Then screws me when he doesnt start to get beat by his backup. I'm trying to trade Fournette in both my leagues. I dont want to have anything to do with this guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mobb_deep 917 Posted October 8, 2018 He was dropped in my league. Thinking of blowing my whole FAAB on him. Cant imagine someone with more upside hitting waivers. But he could also just rot on my bench all year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bgard72 10 Posted October 9, 2018 Can't be good news on Fournette if they're working out Charles and Charc West... NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports the Jaguars will work out free agent RB Jamaal Charles. Charles touched the ball just 92 times last season with the Broncos, and he did not draw much interest on the open market this offseason. He is nearing the end, but he could offer Jacksonville some veteran depth until Leonard Fournette returns. Jacksonville will also work out Charcandrick West.

bobby heenan 60 Posted October 9, 2018 I think working out west n Charles has more to do with Grant being done....hey I own yeldon and not fournette...so I'm hoping fournette stays out alap...but I think that news is related to Grant Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fournette has low durability, this is well known https://sportsinjurypredictor.com/player/leonard-fournette/7749 Gurley is much better. Based on the above we already knew Fournette would miss games.

bgard72 10 Posted October 10, 2018 Leonard Fournette - RB - Jaguars Florida Football Insiders reports a "source having knowledge of the Jaguars' thinking" expects the team to sit Leonard Fournette (hamstring) through the Week 9 bye. Fournette has been ruled out very early in the week the past two weeks and hasn't practiced at all since re-injuring his hamstring in Week 4. Jacksonville is in Dallas this week, which Fournette has already been ruled out for, and then hosts the Texans in Week 7 before going to London for a date with the Eagles in Week 8. The Jaguars then have their bye. It may make the most sense to let Fournette rest through the open date and have him for the stretch run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rrmcguire 36 Posted October 10, 2018 at this point do you hold Fournette? I have Yeldon, Lamar Miller, Aaron Jones, Ronald Jones, and probably going to pick up D'Onta Foreman don't know what I could get for a trade though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

murf74 461 Posted October 11, 2018 As owner I hope he sits till after bye. I will take a healthy LF with fresh legs for the playoff stretch. Its only 3 more playable weeks for him that he will miss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No you don't drop LF. I'm in good enough shape that I'm happy to let him sit for the stretch run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Simms 11 127 Posted October 11, 2018 Keep him until after the BYE, where they will limit his carries to preserve his health. He should get you 5-6 points weekly in the fantasy playoffs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil Simms 11 127 Posted October 11, 2018 Once he gets back they'll be very conservative with his touches. Good luck though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mobb_deep 917 Posted October 11, 2018 Once he gets back they'll be very conservative with his touches. Good luck though Really depends where they are at that point. They're 3-2 with the Titans, with Houston playing well too. Before the bye they play Dallas, Philly and the Texans. They could easily lose 2 of those 3 and be 4-4 going into the bye. Coming out of the bye they play the Colts twice, Titans and Houston once. If all of those teams are still right around .500 and playing for the division title, they're not going to rest the guy that gives them the best chance to win, so he can be healthy fishing in the off-season. They might work him in the first week or two, but he's going to be money those critical fantasy playoff weeks. Two of those weeks being against Tenn and Miami, whom are towards the bottom of the league in run defense. I guess I'm in a different position than most, as he's my RB4... Some knucklehead dropped him in my league and I blew my entire FAAB to snag him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crystal Meth Tweekers 26 Posted October 12, 2018 I read this on rotoworld. Please come back early!! Coach Doug Marrone said Fournette has a "chance" to play Week 7 against the Texans. Fournette is already out for this week in Dallas. A report surfaced earlier in the week that Jacksonville could hold Fournette out through the Week 9 bye, so playing Week 7 or 8 would be viewed as a great sign.
