10. Indianapolis Colts (via SD)

RB. LSU. Leonard Fournette . 10. player. 46. The Indianapolis Colts have tried for years to get Andrew Luck a legitimate ground game to ease the pressure on him. Trent Richardson was a massive flop. Frank Gore hasn’t been bad but he’s nothing like the player he was in San Francisco. It’s time for this team to seek out a true workhorse. Somewhat that will force defenses to divert some of their attention away from Luck. It doesn’t really get much better than Leonard Fournette. <p>He’s being called a better back than Todd Gurley was coming out of college. Even on par with Adrian Peterson. His blend of size, power, speed, and vision make him a nightmare for defenses to handle and that’s with no quarterback to worry about. So try to imagine it being an All-Pro like Luck feeding him the football on Sundays. The word unfair will start to be thrown around quite often in the years that follow.</p>
