If Christian McCaffrey was black, he would be a top 10 pick

[countryboi]

I dont buy it...the only thing GMs and Coaches care about in the NFL is can you help my team win? they dont give a poo if a player is green. the only people that care about what color Mccaffrey is, is the media looking for a race story. 

[pantherclaw]

Is he an every down back that can pickup the blitz? 

That's why he's not top ten.

 

Ignorance is bliss.

I am so with you on this. I just love how the media baits everyone with race bait these days.

His only knock is his strength and power run game. HE pretty much checks all other boxes by all accounts he was a great college RB .I mean he's almost consensus rated as the #3 RB in the class and it would not surprise me if a few teams had him as the #2 RB on their board if they aren't huge Cook fans. He will likely go in the mid to late 1st or at the latest top half of the second round, so maybe he's being disrespected by the media and fans but not by real teams and NFL talent elevators. They probably loved his combine and its easy to see him getting snatched up real quick by one of the playoff teams in the late first. Billicheck would have a field day with him and James White in the backfield because of how well he can use versatile players like McCaffrey.

It's true.

There probably a close to zero chance the Panthers draft him in my opinion, because of the system we run and the position we are drafting at it won't make sense value wise to get him instead of Fournette, Adams, Allen, Hooker, D.Barnett, , S.Thomas, ect. 

If we make any trade downs or trade ups I could see it happening. Especially if he drops through the whole first round and we didn't select an RB, then Gettleman might trade up in the 2nd (which shouldn't be that costly considering we have pick  40) and pick him that's a little more foreseeable. I could also see that happening if Ross or Howard drop to the 2nd.

Every down backs rarely go in the top 10, let alone ones that some teams view as third down/slot receiver/PR/KR types.

How many concussions did Sharpe have on the field?

Prediction, McCaffrey will have a better career than Reggie Bush.

(But not because he's white.)

[CatMan72]

Uh, no... he's not a top 10 pick because he's a PAC10 scatback. 

[Fox007]

Of course it's true....

That's why Jordy Nelson who led WRs in TDs is "sneaky fast" or "deceptive speed" or a "technician" lol...omg guys that white offensive player is "scrappy".

Jordy ran a 4.51 while Dez ran a 4.52 and I've never heard him being called "sneaky" or anything like that.

oh boi race topic

I think it's probably true in terms of public perception but not to GMs around the league. The draft will tell us. But judging from current mocks he is a 1st round pick. And to be rated that highly as a RB shows a lot of respect white or black.
