What is the best supporting cast Cam has ever had?

and do we have a chance at this year being his best? What other moves need to be made to surround him with the most help he's had in his career?

Personally I think he had his best supporting cast overall in 13 and I hated Hixon.

2013

Receiving Targets:Smith,Olsen, Lafell, Ginn, and Hixon.

RB: Williams, Stewart and Tolbert in the backfield. 

This was also his last year with Gross and Wharton anchoring the left side of the line.

2016 or 2011 would be the runner up IMO.

2016

Receiving Targets: Olsen, Benjamin, Ginn, Funchess

RB:Stewart, Fozzy and Cap.

2011

Receiving Targets: Smith, Olsen, Lafell, Shockey and Nanee ( He actually managed over 400 yards that year)

RB: Williams, Stewart and Goodson. (Cam, Stewart and Williams all had over 5 ypc that year and over 700 yards a piece)

Jury has spoken, 2011 it is. Pretty damn sad that his rookie year is the best supporting cast we have given him in a 7 year career. 

What other moves does Hurney need to make to right this ship?

Here are his most targeted receivers from last year with the number of times they were targeted.

  1. McCaffrey -113
  2. Funchess -111
  3. Benjamin    51 (over 8 games)
  4. Dickson      48
  5. Olsen          38 (skewed by injury)
  6. Shepard     33
  7. Samuel       26
  8. Byrd            17
  9. Klay             15

Rushing attemps for 2018

  1. Stewart      198
  2. CAM            139
  3. McCaffrey  117
  4. CAP                18
  5. WHITAKER     7

Yeah, 2011 by a landslide.  That was such fun to watch, and it's no coincidence, Cam was setting passing records left and right that year.  Give him the weapons and protection and you'll quickly find that footwork and accuracy improves leaps and bounds.  He just needs the weapons.

    • I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.  
    • Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
