Yeah I seem to remember stew being on a bike on the sidelines more than he was on the field 

Stew's ankle never fully healed...ever.  He could have been all time Panther, but his lower half just kept plaguing him.  Incredible skillset.

OK so I've got the 2nd pick in my fantasy draft this year and it's basically down to CMC, Jonathan Taylor or King Henry as my pick. The league winner had Taylor last year so I'm assuming he's the first pick. It's a PPR league, which is where CMC would feast. But I know I will get absolutely roasted by the rest of the league if I homer out and take him #2 given the injury history (none of that matters and a huge "I told you so" if he can make it a full season of course)

Vhat to do Vhat to do.... A lot rides on that pick. What say you, Huddle homer sages?

I would take him, but that's just me. He's so valuable in a PPR.

Hell, I think even with him missing almost all of last year he was still the 22nd ranked back fantasy wise....something like that.  He's a gamebreaker in FF.

I'm not convinced that CMC could not have played through most of those injuries.  I feel like the team shut him down because they knew we were not competing for anything and RBs have limited time to play at an elite level.

Dont ever draft running backs in the first.  ever.  full stop.  I would go with Kelce simply because there are like 5 tes that contribute consistently in fantasy and having the top dog means you are getting points basically every game.  There are plenty of running backs that emerge every year and the wideout depth is just getting crazier by the year.  At 2 I would go Kelce or Jefferson.

Can blame a lot of things on Rhule, but he is not the one that kept handing the ball off the McCaffrey when games were over that would be his predecessor.

100%. Two years ago he was good to go in early December.

I’m facing the same dilemma. I’ve got the #3 pick and it’ll probably be between CMC or Ekeler. I’ve had CMC the past couple of years and he’s absolutely killed me.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
