Sugar coating RBs, CJ lead back

And yet you said CMC’s highest speed was 19 MPH and I proved you wrong by looking at his longest TD which is where the highest point of speed comes from. I do still wonder if you understand that that measure is from one single point of a play not the average speed of the player. Oh well, you were wrong on the point I posted about. 

Congrats you had to use the last game of the season to prove a point LMAO

 

If Mccaffrey was faster he would have had more long runs, that’s how speed works. And it still proves my point Kamara is faster than Mccaffrey.

ournette and Alvin but suddenly people say he is slower. That’s illogical and it’s not 6 years ago I maintain that if the three raced for 40 yards today he would beat both of them. Alvin was almost a tenth slower at the combine 

   Yet everything they have done on a football field has shown Kamara and Fournette to be faster. But the true test should be in shorts. And make sure one guy weighs 38 lbs. more than the other. 

  I honestly don’t care who’s a step faster. That’s the only part of CMCs game that is not a concern. If he showed any of the tackle-breaking ability that the other two have, there would be no issues.

I agree with you that they both break tackles better. Cmc is probably the best nfl back as a pass catcher but poor as a short yardage runner

  Which is exactly why he wasn’t worth a top ten pick. That doesn’t mean he can’t be valuable or is in any way a bust, just a poor use of draft value. And Stewart shouldn’t have prevented them from finding out if he was capable of handling 20 touches a week. Now we either don’t know, or the coaches have already made up their minds as to what type of player he is. Which would be an even bigger waste.

Well he is what I thought he was at Stanford. Never a good inside runner but a guy who could kill you out in space. If Reggie bush was drafted number one and could never run inside then cmc should be a first rounder because of what he CAN do not what he can’t do. Tell me who would have converted first downs for us last year if we didn’t have cmc?

Sorry Reggie was picked second Lendale White did all the inside running at USC

One, Reggie Bush was the exact reason you don’t take RBs that can’t handle being the every down back. 

  And there are many RBs in the NFL who can catch the ball out of the backfield every bit as well as CMC. The difference is most teams find these players in the later rounds/UDFA. Duke Johnson, Shane Vereen, Theo Reddick to name a couple. Is CMC that much better than any of these players to justify a top ten pick? No he’s not.

Well maybe he shoulda been picked late first round but it’s water under the bridge They should use his positive assets and use Anderson for the tough inside yards

    • Adding on to that - I know I read from some reporter that Dak Prescott's mentality is extremely fragile. Get in his head, and he loses focus and confidence. Per that reporter,  anytime a big game comes up, he starts to have the jitters and hasn't seem to overcome that slump. Dak would be an upgrade over Bryce as things currently stand. But Dak has not proven he can play in games that matters without choking. Bryce hasn't had the chance to show anything in the NFL, so nothing much to say there. But based on his history, he's done well in college in the national championship. Theoretically he should be more confident in big games if he gets to that point. For that alone, I'd rather keep rolling the dice on Bryce or set our sights higher. I wouldn't touch Dak with a 10 ft pole given his choking habits.
    • Same here brother, love Xavier I think he’s gonna become a quick fan favorite of the team. He already has gone viral for his country accent, we have no face of the franchise currently outside of maybe Derrick Brown in terms of media attention. I would not be surprised if in the next 4 years Xavier becomes that media darling we used to have in the 2010s with Luke, Cam, Josh Norman, CMC, etc.  
    • I haven't been high on any of the WRs we drafted in the past.   This kid though is someone I actually wanted. I have a feeling we finally hit big with this kid. I'm expecting him to be a DJ Moore caliber WR.
