"McCaffrey can't run in between the Tackles"

I'm a fan of McCaffrey but those highlights don't really show what he will do against an NFL defense. On a ton of those highlights he is untouched- in the league yards after first contact is huge- again not saying he won't be a good player but we all know he is fast and has fantastic agility.

It's just that so many people are afraid of him cause he "can't run in our system". Seriously??? this is exactly what we do!

The difference is that we do it against NFL teams.  I think mccaffrey will be very good in the right system as a complimentary player, and at 40 or even a small trade up from 40 I'm good with.  At 8 I want more than that though.

Yea that highlight video was him mostly untouched. He jumped over twice and was untouched on most of them....that wouldn't be the "this guy can take the rock up the middle" highlight video I'd be showing to prove he can get tough inside runs. Then again they don't usually make highlights of tough 4 yard runs or even just take the 2 you got on this play type of videos either.

He's a play maker with hands, vision, versatility, speed, and quickness and can't really be faulted for actually making good plays and taking the right gap to the house. He could be in the slot and move behind Cam, or be behind Cam and then motion out to the slot or outside....he doesn't have to leave the field whether he's going to run or go out on a route.

      I never thought a second look was even necessary. I was begging the football gods not to have us trade up to the 1st pick. And damn once we did it was a thoroughbred vs a little pony.    If you have a perceived generational player in the pool and you have the 1st pick, you just don’t trade it. In the first place. But all this Bryce drama - which (understandably) takes over almost any thread, just like this one - would never have happened if the team was not sold to Tepper.

      I agree. I understand why he did though. And surely he had his parents in his ear who have always gone out of their way to make sure he always had the best and the least amount of adversity around him to that point in his life advising him to do so. Where I take the most issue with it is when people who just want to be sycophants start listing off other QB's who didn't throw at the combine and you don't even make it through half the names before your eyes roll right into the back of your head realizing every single of those QB's who didn't throw already clearly showcased the necessary prerequisite physical talents needed for the position.
