I can't believe we are contemplating taking Mccaffrey over Dalvin Cook

I agree with the OP. cook is the better pure runningback if thats what you are looking for. And his pass catching ability might be second or 3rd in this class. That said I dont hate McCaffery. there a lot of value he brings that the others don't.... Character being the main one that gettleman loves...Cooks character and combine destroying his draft stock.

Yards after contact CMC 575, Cook 1194. Over 600 more yards after contact

 

CMC top speed was 20mph, Cook's top speed was 23mph, but Mccaffrey did run faster at the underwear Olympics, he was also the second weakest RB at the combine putting up a laughable 10 reps at the bench.

 

CMC had more catches last season yet Cook had more receiving yards and a higher yards per reception.

 

Cook played in the best conference in college football behind a line not known for great run blocking. CMC played behind the the machine known as the Stanford O-line which made Gaffney, Gerhart and Taylor look like all Americans. While going against the second worst defensive conference of the Big 5.

 

If we draft Mccaffrey over Cook we will regret it, put your house on that.

If we pick MCM will you quit the Huddle?

Ironically our system is nothing like NE, Cook is a way better fit

 

I can already hear the complains

Shula is not using him right

He's open, Cam isn't passing it to him

Rivera keeps on using Stewart and Fozzy

Our O-line can't block

 

We are literally going to waste a pick on a slower Reggie Bush that doesn't fit our team 

I'm not disagreeing. I would LOVE Fournette but really have no interest in McCaffrey or Cook to be honest.

I know they have McCaffrey listed at 202 lbs, but his build looks smaller than that. I'm not knocking his talent. I just don't think he can take the pounding as a every down back in the NFL. To me he looks more like a scat back like Reggie Bush. Idk maybe we will use him as a slot receiver and a punt returner.

This is my main concern about McCaffrey. Can he take an NFL pounding at that weight.  Sure he can add more muscle and weight, but by doing that would he erase the things that made him effective in college.
