One year on: Rating Christian McCaffrey


Recommended Posts

9/10 as a receiver

5/0 as a runner

But considering that Cam was our only effective runner last year I'm not aure how much of CMC's struggles as a runner can be put on him. None of the other RBs did anything either. He also showed definite improvement as a runner later in the season.

He gets a 7 out of 10. He started off slow but definitely improved as the season progressed. 

I would like to see him get about 15 carries a game instead of 7. Then you might see 1500 all purpose yarda

He was a 9.5/10 with his role as the 3rd down back. His recieving and coverting ability is insane. He is such a weapon to dump it to on a 3rd down. Watch his highlight tape.. almost ever play is a 1st down

 

due to his limited role with Stewart hogging snaps (unable to get in a grove or rythm which is important for a RB), and an OC that was a peanut brain, he didnt have a chance to shine as a workhorse RB

 

if he gets that opportunity this year to take most of the snaps and he can get to be THE guy, he will be a premiere back and one of the best in the league. 

 

He just needs the opportunity.

7.5/10 last year

9.5/10 this year. I'm expecting a YUGE year from CMC. I think Norv is the perfect OC to maximize his ability, and u think he will begin to light teams up next year. I expect to see a lot more plays like his long TD against the Saints in the playoffs.

    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
