Comments welcome.  I don't feel there's ANY debate.  JStew is still our #1 back, our  opponents would hate it, he's a game changer, and I can't think of anyone of note that's truly lost a season or career on a return any moreso than a regular play.

If he's the best man for the job.

I don't subscribe to your theory that he HAS to be used on returns or he's a waste of value. There is plenty of value in being a change of pace, all purpose monster by playing a hybrid role in today's NFL, even if you were the eighth pick in the draft.

I trust the coaches to make the right call.

Until he supplants Stewart as the #1 back, he should be utilized in as many ways as possible. 

Agree. Until he's essentially an every down player he should be on at least one ST unit.

Top Dawg, I feel this may just be a wording issue rather than what you actually believe but there absolutely is NOT #8 overall value in being a "change of pace" role.

Exactly.  Not that we WOULD have taken Cook or Mixon, but in theory we could have had Barnett/Hooker/Howard in a trade back PLUS Cook or Mixon.  CMC IS awesome...and he better be!!!

    • The thing I hate about strength of schedule is that NFL teams change so much over a year and past success or failure doesn't really dictate future success or failure
    • Considering you previously struggled to understand BTT despite it being explained in a video, write-up, and multiple replies, I get why this might be a little too complex for you. Happy to clarify again! Just let me know which part tripped you up this time. 😉
    • And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.
