Leonard Fournette was the subject of ridicule on social media after his poor performance at the vertical jump at the NFL Combine, but some NFL executives apparently weren't alarmed by his performance.

One scout even went as far as comparing Fournette to Herschel Walker.

Fournette's vertical was only 28.5 inches, but his time in the 40-yard dash was an impressive 4.51. Fournette weighed in at 240 pounds, and it doesn't seem like executives will be too concerned about his vertical jump.
Fournette is still expected to be a first round pick, and he will likely go in the first half of the draft.
