Gil Brandt: Perfect draft prospect to compliment McCaffrey

David Montgomery: Carolina Panthers

Christian McCaffrey has proven himself to be a force, generating 1,965 yards from scrimmage (6.0 yards per touch) in 2018, but the two-year veteran doesn't have the strength to run through people. Thus, the Panthers could still stand to add someone who can run the ball inside. Montgomery is big enough (5-foot-10, 222 pounds) to get in there and muscle his way forward in short-yardage and goal-line situations -- plus, he has enough pass-catching ability (71 catches, 582 receiving yards in three seasons at Iowa State) that he won't limit what Carolina can do when he's on the field. The former Cyclone projects as a nice backfield complement to McCaffrey

From the sounds of it he’ll be our second round pick. 

If we could land Bryce Love in the 4th round it could be an absolute steal! He backed up cmc for 2 years at Stanford and would be the fastest back in the nfl if he recovers well from his acl injury

CMC is not a one trick pony, a power RB to be run into the ground. He should be preserved for that fact. Whatever this franchise does they need to lighten his load and find another backfield threat who isn’t Cam. And more importantly, have the aptitude to use him effectively.

However this is same staff that drove Cam in the ground because it worked and gave no thought to expanding their minds and taking the more difficult route in obtaining talent in order to enable preservation until recently.

So the questions isn’t whether someone should be obtained, it’s really would it even matter. See: CJ Anderson.

I wonder how this guy is any different than CAP?  Very similar and CAP might have a little more speed.  Just saying.

Similar to cap but Bryce love would be an added speed dimension when added to cmc Samuel and our other wideouts The defenses wouldn’t be able to handle all that speed

I agree that we need a compliment to CMC, but he ran through a few people last year. He is a very good inside runner. I'm all for giving him some more breaks, though.

We can't risk injury, and if CMC gets injured as it is, we are screwed.

I want him with our 3rd rounder if he falls

    • Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds. 
    • Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.
