CMC is not a RB...he is a WR

Guy runs good routes and has good hands. He is not build to be a RB in this league. Have him tear up the middle of the field and be that 'guy' we don't have. Cam will have to learn how to use him and it would help with the crap Oline as a quick outlet. Shula is probably the problem with this idea. Give A.P a shot with Stewart. If I can see this why can't the coaches?

You guys are putting too much stock into this WR thing. What makes him dynamic is getting him lined up on LBs. If he's at receiver, he's gonna have a corner on him most plays, which takes away his advantage. He has to play RB to be a successful receiver. The problem is, when he's in the game, it's pretty much going to be a pass, because no one respects him as a runner.

Im not given up on him being a rb in the league yet after 7 games. But the thing about this team is we have no choice but to play him at wr because of how crappy the offense is. We need a receiver that can get open quickly to eliminate pressure and no use in running him behind a piece of poo o line and getting bang up early in his career. CMC at receiver helps this team better than at rb right now.

nobody respects any of our running backs right now, because our line is atrocious.

Not if he plays slot receiver, like Welker did with the Pats. McC could easily dominate as a slot receiver at this level, possibly even better than Welker did in his prime in NE.

But I still do have hope he'll have a major jump like LeVeon Bell in between the tackles and that's not out of the question. McC's vision and patience in college was just like LeVeon Bell's, it takes time for the NFL speed of the game to slow down for him and for him to be able to just play without thinking. Bell was terrible his rookie year and had a major leap his second year, as a runner. Partly due to weight loss, but also due to the game slowing down and him seeing the lanes he sees now, and letting them develop in time. McC can still get there and be an elite weapon like Bell. Also, very hard to develop in this offense as a runner right now when there are 3 defenders on you the instant you get the ball.

      https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.

      Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
