Quote:This guy has 645 receiving yards this season and over 1,000 return yards (in addition to his 2,000+ rushing yards). BB would utilize this dude as an all purpose player. Heck, Julian Edelman played QB in College. Julian Edelman was a 7th round pick. I just don't see BB picking a guy like McCaffrey that high. Its not his way.
Quote:Julian Edelman was a 7th round pick. I just don't see BB picking a guy like McCaffrey that high. Its not his way. "... a guy like McCaffrey..."????? Have you seen him play? I'm not sure he won't go in the top 20 picks. He's easily the best player in college football, and he fits perfectly what pro teams are looking for in backs these days. He can run, he can catch. He's elusive. He's fast. He's got ankle-breaking moves in the open field. He can score on any play. He's as good as any running back I've seen in several years. Have you actually seen him play?
Quote:Why are you guys only comparing him to white players? People compare other people that look the same. Just so happens that white players look like other white players, I don't think anyone means anything by it. Having said that in terms of ability he's a Reggie Bush clone.

He's as good as any running back I've seen in several years.Yes a guy like Mccaffrey.McCaffrey's a crazy good player as you have fully described in your misjudged reply but I don't see BB picking him,not really his style to pick flashy skill players highly in the draft. Few in the 2nd round like Gronk ,Vereen etc etc but very rarely in the 1st. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Quote:People compare other people that look the same. Just so happens that white players look like other white players, I don't think anyone means anything by it. They may not mean it, but it's something I see so often, and really it's racist. It's the idea that his overriding characteristic is his skin color. For years, whenever a black QB came into the league, all the pundits would compare him to Randall Cunningham. It's the same thing. Quote:I think he'd be deadly in our offense because of Bortles. He'd be Walters on steroids. We'd use him as a compliment to Yeldon and as a slot receiver.Only if Bortles learns to take what the defense gives him. We show less advertisements to registered users.

It's like every white defensive end or d lineman is called a JJ Watt player. It just happens. Heck I was called myhigh schools football teams Wes Welker and I played linebacker at 6ft 200. It's weird

Quote:Danny Woodhead type Exactly. I was gonna say, think of Toby Gerhart. Got that picture in your mind? The way he plays? McCaffrey is the opposite of that.

McCaffrey is the opposite of that. similar to Doug Flutie but at a different position and totally different player
Honestly, when I see him I see Darren Sproles.
I think he benefits some due to Stanford's commitment to the running game, so I'm not so certain how he will work in the tight spaces that are prevalent in the NFL but once you get him in the open field he has the quickness and speed to break apart a Defense. I think he is probably the absolute best option for a "compliment" back in the Running Back by committee approach when you pair him with a back who is a little more comfortable working with less space.
I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.
Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!

Lol at looking like Barry Sanders and Reggie Bush.
He is a decent back. I didn't see any hard cuts. He takes choppy steps, instead of 1 cut. Pretty good football player. Quote:Lol at looking like Barry Sanders and Reggie Bush. he's not capable of being as explosive as a black player. that's just science.
