Fournette began the 2016 season as a favorite for the Heisman Trophy but a lingering ankle injury caused him to miss four games this year. He finished the regular season with 843 yards on 123 carries and eight touchdowns.

ESPN NFL Draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. has Fournette as the No. 2 prospect on his big board.

I wonder if he regrets not going to Bama, he would have had a couple of rings. Glad he came to LSU though, just hate we had all the drama while he was here.
