You also wouldn't be using pedant correctly.

the word you're searching for is "pedant."

Yes, I know, but I no longer have the opportunity to correct.

Which gives pedants like you even more opportunities.

stop saying you're watching tape

watching tape means you're in a room with scouts and former players watching the all 22 footage constantly going back and forth, analyzing each position

you're slacking off at work and watching youtube videos set to drake songs

LMMMMMMMMMMMAAAAOOOOOOO

Did You watch a Youtube video? Or coaches tape? For some reason people are calling youtube videos "tape" now, just curious.

I've never understood this comparison. He's a patient runner, who can press the back of his oline and wait for a lane, but the body types aren't even remotely comparable. Body wise, he's Reggie Bush. He's less explosive, with better vision.

I know a ton of people have compared him to Woodhead, Sproles, Dion lewis, etc. However, when I looked through everything, something had caught my eye about him, something that felt extremely similar to someone who had come out a couple of years ago. After I finished my tape session of McCaffrey, I popped on some Michigan state tape from a couple of years back, and one or two Pittsburgh games from last year, McCaffrey reminds me so much of Lev Bell (Mostly from his recent years in Pittsburgh given his increased speed and lighter frame). You watch some of the Stanford games, the patience, receiving, and cutting ability of Christian is incredibly comparable to Bell, it kind of sticks out. So if you were hesitant about the pick still, which I know some people are, I would ask you to watch some games of Lev Bell and compare it to the Stanford tape of this year, you might be surprised by our new running back.
 

I have been watching tape on McCaffery all weekend and I absolutely agree with this 100%. The difference of course is the size with McCaffery been smaller in height  and weight in comparison with Bell. McCaffery doesn't finish runs like Bell but he has the break away speed and the receiving ability to be dynamic just like Bell. They are very close to being the same player with McCaffery been a much better athlete.

It's youtube videos of games, not highlights :P 
It's a little harder because you don't see the whole field, but you get the general idea.

Lol, nah man. There are videos out there of full games that highlight individual players, and shows you every snap from different angles. I also have game pass which allows you to see the field from every angle. So no, I'm not a professional scout or anything, but I do make notes, and write articles every now and then, it's a hobby man, chill out.

No poo, man.  You did good work.

Ignore the pendants!  ;)

Why are people arguing tape vs. video?  Everyone knows what people mean, it's a very nitpicky point.
