Aztec Hammer Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Turn him into a full time slot receiver whilst it's still early. Dude is pretty weak and not outrageously athletic enough to compensate for it as a pro runner. But he has quicks and can get in and out of breaks very well. He's also a trier. Not just saying this because he's small, white and athletic. Genuinely think his best shot at sustained success is a jitterbug, option type receiver in the mold of Edelman.

KhanYouDigIt Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 He’s a slot receiver, not a RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dome Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I wanted the Saints to draft him as a slot WR that could take a dozen or so snaps out of the backfield. Still think that's his best usage in the NFL. Like the guy but hope he stinks the place up in CAR before signing with the Saints in 3 years.

spilltray Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 If you are looking at him as a RB, you are always going to be disappointed. He's a decent to good pure runner, but not great. If you look at him as WR you are going to be disappointed in a low YPC . He's not going to get many downfield shots deep. He's a hybrid. Part RB part WR. On a creative offense with moving pieces like Green Bay or New England, I think he could put up crazy all around numbers. In Carolina with Cam, who's hit or miss, and a poor OL, We'll see but I'm not as certain he'll ever break out and be more than a "nice player".

Hunter2_1 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I think with a different scheme, OL and QB he'd be having a much more productive season. He has absolutely buried defenders, but Cam hasn't thrown his way or has over thrown him. That OL can't block to save their lives in the run game. Anyone forking him already is being incredibly unfair. I'd love him in New England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Carolina's run blocking has been awful this year as evidence by their performance last night, albeit against the best front 7 in football (..?), but I don't think he'll emerge as a feature or dominant back in any way. He can find a successful role as a 3DRB. It's not that he can, he has. He's already proved to be a tremendous receiver. Cam is not used to dumping it off to a back like McCaffery either, so their connection will only grow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MookieMonstah Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 He's quick and fast enough to succeed as a HB. He's a guy who should get 10-12 carries a game with 6-8 receptions as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GamedayGuru Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 I'd take Fournette, Hunt, Mixon or Kamara way before I'd take Mcaf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Kamara looks amazing. If he was getting the same touches as Hunt I think he'd have similiar numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Cohen a lot as well, it's turning out to be a nice RB class but my top 3 are Fournette, Hunt, and Kamara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
