Would You Be Okay With Starting CAP?

Rather than wasting money or wasting or reaching a pick, this guy was drafted and accepted as Stew's replacement. Drafting another RB would amount to the same thing and personally if the first round has that many good backs, maybe teams will go that direction and leave something open like a Derwin James. Unfortunately Seattle may be the landing spot for James. I don't see the purpose of repeating a process we repeated a few years ago with getting Artis Payne. He needs to start. He had solid stats last year and has been solid throughout to the point that we should roll the dice with him.

No, I would rather start our starting running back.  You know, the guy with over 1000 all purpose yards last season....

CMC is our feature back now...let's stop trying to find someone to put as the 1.  He reminds me so much of LT its scary.

CAP couldn't crack the line-up before CMC was here, either. Couldn't outplay Fozzy or Tugboat Tolbert. Let that sink in.

CAP has grabbed some nice paychecks (at least compared to us normal folks) and it's probably time to cut him loose and let him either go to pasture or someone else's RB committee. 

In limited appearances he had quite a bit of pop, sometimes that was the pop he put on a defender, sometimes it was the sound of the ball popping out of his arms and back into play. 

In the end, I wouldn't let Fozzy go to keep CAP on the roster.

CMC starts, I'm fine with CAP playing second fiddle this year but should still spend a pick on a back (no earlier than the 3rd) because CAP is gone after next season.

    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
