Are people really saying McCaffrey is preferred over Fournette now?

That seems to be the story line of the day.

 

It shouldn't be.

 

It's Fournette, and it isn't close.

 

I've been laughing and commiserating about how many people on here think they know what they are talking about and really dont. you can pick them out by the ones that are 100% sold on McCaffery at 8.

I fugin LOVE Fournett. Hes my dream RB. there is a high chance we cant score a RB like him, therefore, Id settle with McCaffrey because i cant live without a RB and I feel we can be creative on how to maximize what he brings to the table. i am also good at convincing myself that McCaffrey is just as good....  when he isnt. i mean look at Fournett

 

I'm pretty sure I need the name of the first lady in blue jeans, please.  For research purpose, of course.

Panthers prefer Fournette, but it's going to cost more assets to get him than McCaffrey. Sometimes you don't always get what you want, so CMC is a helluva consolation prize. 

It's not like you're downgrading from Zeke Elliott to Kenyan Drake.  

Clearly DG and the brass in charge know their schtick more than me, but I have a hard time giving up two additional picks in the top 64 of a very talented and deep draft class for LF over CMC. If he's there at #8, it's a no-brainer for me, but I have a hard time believing he is still on the board at #8 unless there's another bong smoking IG hack release on draft night. 

Especially considering how much of an impact McCaffrey will still have on the offense and special teams. LF would be a beast here, but again, I'd prefer to add a TE/SAF/EDGE/WR at picks 40 and 64. Pick 98 is a looooong time to wait after landing Fournette.

I would definitely prefer Fournette, but McCaffery is probably more realistic at #8 or if we trade down.

I think most people assume LF will not be available when we pick.

I happen to think Fournette will be available at 8. 1 and now possibly 2 QB's will go in top 7.

[Moorgan]

My hot take of the year: Fournette will be a bust.

Exactly.  There is zero chance unless we trade down.  I see it being DB or a DE if LF is gone.  Maybe a trade down for an inline TE

There is no chance of defensive player taken at 8.

Fournette > OJ Howard > McCaffrey 

one of those 3 will be available and they will be picked via that order.

Doubt it.   For all we know Thomas or Adams could drop to us.  Wouldn't surprise me at all to see Howard go in the teens and McCaffrey in the 20's

You cray

Bill Voth said a full month ago that we we're 100% in on Fournette and would take him @ 8.

[usmcpanthers]

All I know 50% of the huddle will be ecstatic and the other 50% will be irate after the 1st rd of the draft.

[XClown1986]

Of course Fournette is higher than McCaffrey. But the doubt on McCaffrey is outrageous. 

And show of hands: Who would rather trade a 2nd round pick to get Fournette? Ok, now how many would take McCaffrey at 8 or after a trade down and keep the 2nd and possibly acquire more picks?

That's all I'm saying.

Gettleman is willing to give up two seconds and 8th overall to get Fournette over McCaffrey, Jeremy is right, it's not even close on any level. 

If thats the case, shouldn't this pretty much be a shoe in that the deal is done? What team picking 4-8 wouldn't take that capital to move down to 8? I suppose the only answer is a team that loves Fournette as much as Gettleman.
