Leonard Fournette is the most commonly picked player to the Jacksonville Jaguars at No. 4 overall in the 2017 NFL Draft. It's the chalk pick that's most likely to happen -- and it also comes with a lot of questions. Does Fournette fit the offense that the Jaguars are building? Is our offensive line good enough for him to come here?
We don't know exactly what kind of offense the Jaguars are going to be running in 2017. But we can look back at the history and tendencies of Doug Marrone and Nate Hackett to get a good idea. The offense seemed to shift a little bit once Hackett took over for Greg Olson and then a little more when Gus Bradley was fired -- to a faster tempo and more shotgun with 11 personnel looks (three wide receiver, one tight end, one back).
If you're going to make the Fournette pick, however, you want to make sure that you pick a player that actually fits what you're wanting to do on offense. With Fournette, you're taking more of a power formation running and shoe-horning them into an offense that is built to be run out of a 3-receiver shotgun set.
Picking someone like Fournette with the fourth overall pick would almost require a drastic overhaul of the Jaguars offense, based on how the personnel is currently constructed to make him fit. If not, you're just putting a square peg in a round hole and hoping it works out.
So how would you change the Jaguars offense to better fit around a running back like Fournette? Let us know in the comments below.
