Cool story bro

[Yaboychris28]

Just ran into Christian McCaffery at the Charlotte Airport. Super nice guy. He was just chilling at an open terminal by himself. No one else recognized him, but being a die hard of course yaboychris28 did. Small talked for a few min about the upcoming season, also shared how I played rb in college as well lol..( way lower level d3) Anyways, then let him go on his way, didn't want to intrude too much. He was heading to San Jose so I assume he was heading home. Yeah it's not a big deal, but it was just a cool experience. Wasn't able to get a pic with him since my phone was dead at the time, but captured  a ninja pic for my Snapchat followers while he was boarding about 30 min later. Lol

Watching the huddle get a chubby over CMCs calves is entertaining.

You could say he's slender compared to a fat guy, but he's always looked muscled out in the pics I've seen.

its not that he doesn't have muscles, he's just really lean from almost all the pictures ive seen. He's not "wide" from the waist up , was what I was thinking before. 

And if you think about his playstyle, he really couldn't be as fast or elusive as he is with having a body as bulky as JStew or some other power back.  And McCaffreys almost the exact same height and weight as Lesean McCoy I don't see why so many people say he can't be everydown back in light of that

Hell even Ladanian Tomlinson, was only about 10 lbs heavier? I'm guessing most RBs gain some weight in their first couple of seasons just from being on a NFL workout routine. McCaffrey is listed at 202 at his combine weigh in, he'll probably be closer to 210 or 215 once he's had a year or two in the NFL.

I think a big part of it is just the attitude, even if it's not conscious, that quick, elusive players can't take the hits as well. There's some truth in that, physics being what it is, but 205, with his running style, is big enough, and I think he'll be taking fewer head on hits than the average back.

Can't say I'd like to see him used like Stewart though. He needs to maintain that quickness if he's going to avoid a short career. I know Stew likes to be the guy and get a ton of carries, but I think both the team and the backs are better off if two guys are sharing the load. I don't think Fozzy got enough carries last year. He averaged 4.6 yds/carry but only had about 3.5 carries per game. Stew averaged 3.8 yds/carry, which is his worst for any year where he played at least 13 games. We need to go back to double trouble in the backfield and quit considering Cam as the 2nd ground option. Let him run when it's there, but at RB we need a quicker option to keep the defense off balance. It's harder for tacklers to get in a groove when you've got two dangerous RB's with different running styles.
