No he didn’t. He had less than 500 yds rushing, on 3.7 yds per carry and most here were saying that he was a wasted top 10 pick, we should have drafted someone else or that’ Kamara was better

Sounds familiar? We will here more of it after Sunday about Brooks 

He had another 600 yards receiving and showed dynamic playmaking ability... Over 1k from scrimmage as a rookie is pretty good. The concern was he was a RB that couldn't run between the tackles so he couldn't be an every down back.

To the point of limited production on the ground specifically, definitely.

As a rookie CMC had 1058 rush AND receiving yards.   That's not a struggling a rookie.  What was evident, is he needed to gain muscle to be able to run between the tackles as a rookie.  Which I commented on in that post.  He made that correction and 2 years later was a 2k RB with 1000k rushing and 1000k receiving and the hands down best RB in the game.  He did get a lot better, quickly.   

and rookie CMC still managed a better ypc than Jonathan Stewart that year.   We were run heavy.   Running into teams playing the run. 

and Alvin Kamara probably was a better value pick.  He was a half step behind CMC for a 3rd round value.  That's more acknowledging what what a steal Kamara was.

      I'm not sure that in a fair QB competition that Young would beat out Jones.

      That's why I said stats aside. I lived in CO during Allen's college career and didn't have kids at the time so I watched most of his games. Bruh, I'm telling you. Balls just spraying all over the place. The type of throws where you're honestly trying to figure out who he was even trying to throw that one too. It was crazy. Richardson was inaccurate in college but at least you could tell who he was trying to throw it too. He threw a lot of early in the game Cam Newton type balls where it seemed like he was just a little too amped up and everything was a few feet high. Richardson's misses looked like they were maybe fixable with working on his footwork, release, etc. Josh Allen's misses looked like "ain't no way you're fixin' that poo, dude has a cannon equipped with no sights". LOL Huge props to the Bills for evaluating him as fixable and indeed fixing him.
