CMC the best threat the Panthers have ever had?

Fournette is running against 8-10 man boxes because they don't have a QB that scares anyone.

Fournette was injury prone in college and also in the pros and a bit of a head case Elliot runs against loaded boxes and averages almost 5 ypc while Fournette just 3.4 Not really a stud

Just to put numbers to it, Fournette runs against 8+ man boxes on 35% of his runs. 3rd highest in football. CMC is at 20%. Elliott is at 25%. 

Hard to know what Fournette would be in a decent offense, with competent QB and WRs, but at this point, you'd have to take CMC 10 out of 10 times over Fournette, if for no other reason than LF7s inability to stay healthy.

Pretty much a no brainier to take a dual threat RB in today's NFL. I love watching Fournette run, but he will never be elite till he can stay healthy and catch passes unfortunately.

Good stat Tx! By the way Kamara will probably make pro bowl and cmc has no chance even tho cmc will out produce him in rushing and receiving. cmc could break the all time receptions rb record and may get 1000 1000 yardage Pro bowl is all about hype unfortunately

Might of made the pro bowl if the Panthers didn't tank 4 games in a row. Alot of NFL analysts are big on McCaffrey since they played with his dad and knew CMC since he was a kid

It’s a shame because cmc has played his butt off during those losses

Pro Bowl is a joke. All Pro lists are generally a better achievement.

    • I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.
    • overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.     
    • Im really curious to see how the defense is going to look once its playing with some leads.
