Great example here why you should listen and form your own opinions instead running with a poorly worded headline.

I would be happy with him as a second round pick right now. 

 

But the 8th overall pick in the draft? He just has not panned out as a value there whatsoever. (yet)

OJ Howard could have been the pick but CMC will be worth it next year after a year of experience.

I believe that is the theme so far. 

There are those who hated the pick, those who loved the pick and those who tried or had to buy into the pick,... that was me. 

I don't hate the pick yet, but do question why we saw CMC as the BPA over others there at he pick?

ill say the same about Curtis Samuel. It's early for a receiver, but still there were plenty of others at that pick that should have been seen as better.

McCaffrey just turned in his worst rushing peformance of the season in game 8,  4 carries for 3 yards. Just pitiful. 

Yea he was the leading receiver for the game at least, in receptions and yards. But god his rushing ability stinks

He looks like he’s fast and quick enough but doesn’t have the strength to run through the mess between the tackles.

CMC should have gone to a team like Kansas City, Andy Reid would do him right. We use him like any other back and that's just not his game.

i question whether he should be a back at all. He's a slot receiver and not the number 8 pick. 

And as far as CAP, he's slow and weak, Fozzy is much better. Hell Fozzy is better than CMC at this point.

The whole rushing scheme stinks. Don't think you can blame CMC when everyone else has been just as bad. 

CMC would be fine in a better scheme with better run blocking talent.

CMC is averaging like 4-7 carries a game? That's not enough for him to get any rhythm going, If you wanna see him produce results he'll need 15-20 carries a game like at Stanford. Our O-Line could always be better too.

As of right now we just need to develop CMC as a receiver and let CAP get the carries in the run game.
