#7 Leonard Fournette - Jacksonville Jaguars - 2017 total = 212.2

Fournette had a great rookie campaign as part of a rejuvenated Jacksonville Jaguars team. I fully expect him to continue with that form into this coming season. He is the workhorse back in a largely run-dominated offense and I can't see that changing.

Fournette has an angry running style and doesn't shy away from contact. It's easy to see why he was compared to Adrian Petersen coming out of college. He finished last season with 10 touchdowns and 1040 rushing yards on 268 carries. I see him improving on his 3.9 YPC this year, due to reinforcements in the offensive line. Hopefully, he can stay injury free this year, as his season last year was plagued by a niggling ankle injury.

Unfortunately, it was the same injury that hindered him throughout his college career at LSU. He only played in 13 games, so if he plays the full 16 he can really climb up those RB charts.
