Idk I was telling someone the other day it’s weird how quiet they have been about him. His first couple years u would see a video everyday at camp of him doing something crazy. Idk but the Panthers have been weird about the reports coming from camp, so secretive. Kinda weird imo!

Yes, he should be back to his old dominating self this year.  Considering that his injuries last year were not serious, did not require surgery, and that he likely would have been playing had we been in contention, I think all systems are go.  Expect a gigantic season from him:

2200 total yards

1200 rushing

1000 receiving

105 catches

23 total TDs.

If we're smart he's getting light work anyway.

 

Can you explain what you mean? I don't believe your best player should be beat into the ground. We should spread it around, spell McCaffrey more than we have in the past, but he shouldn't be getting "light work".

Light work in training camp? Yeah he should. RBs have a short enough shelf life as it is.

If McCaffrey has 100 plus catches it will sadly be to the detriment of the offense. That is more than either Robby or DJ had last year. The best value 22 has for us is the attention he commands. We have many weapons now. Put them all to use and make Sam's life easier.

And he ain't exactly fighting for a roster spot. Seriously, I shiver to think of him picking up a blitz from some on-the-fringe LB in camp.

We have a rookie who needs the snaps a lot more right now. We know what we have in CMC and we'll let him get his feet wet in the preseason. I hope we'll let Hubbard ease up the burden of his workload a little, but I expect him to be getting a ton of work when the games start counting.

I haven't seen anything about CMC lately - Is he back to pre-injury form? I finally get to pick #1 in my FF league, and plan to pick CMC, unless there are any red flags - How does he look?

Your mouse cursor should be on his name and as soon as your draft starts and you hear the jingle - you should just be clicking on cmc

    • Outside of cerrato, I do like our draft overall. Hard to get can't miss draft picks when you pick late in the draft
    • Very True--and I am a former HS English teacher.  
    • Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages.  Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams.   Moore has a nice smile and can dance.  He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players.  I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent.  Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man?  Good luck with that.  AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing.  He can specialize in situational football. Coker?  Just getting started. XL?  Just getting started.  Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow?  I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn?  Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game.  I hear that Morgan loves him.
