4. Cleveland Browns (via PHI)

53. <p>Their trade with the Eagles in the 2016 draft comes up big for the Browns here. If they’re feeling a bit anxious about the idea of starting a rookie quarterback moving forward, what is the best solution to such a problem?</p> <p>A big, beefy and unstoppable running back he can feed 25-30 times a game. Right now the Browns are in the process of seeing whether they have anybody like that on their roster. Perhaps Isaiah Crowell can continue to improve or maybe former 3rd round pick Duke Johnson is ready to ascend. Time will tell on that, but one thing is clear. Neither of them can hold a candle to Leonard Fournette.</p> <p>The buzz surrounding the LSU standout is massive. Most believe he’s the most talented running back to grace college football since Adrian Peterson. He has that ever-so-rare ability to both run tacklers over and also accelerate for long gains when he gets into the open field. A naturally big athlete who can do almost anything he wants to on a football field.</p> <p>Put him together with Kaaya in that Browns offense and a couple years down the road this team is going to rewrite the status quo in the AFC, not just the AFC North.</p>. RB. LSU. Leonard Fournette . 4. player
