If he was black, everyone would be elated with this pick. There's a stigma against white RBs but there's literally no reason cmac can't be as good as any RB in the league.

there is a black CMac his name is Reggie Bush

Ginn ain't here 

and when Ginn hasn't been here we have been a joke.  

McCaffrey can not return punts that well. Clay almost averages 11 yards per return. McCaffrey averages around 9 and he only did it 10 times last year, and 15 the year prior.  On kick returns McCaff does better at, but like I said, I wouldn't want to risk him on special teams.

But hes not just playing RB. He is probably the best WR on the Panthers roster especially in the slot. He is our kick and punt returner from day one. You can use him on the field with Stew too. 

He is a play maker.

Yes let's use him in all the positions and see how fast he wears out or gets hurt. Just cause he can do all those things doesn't mean he always should. He'd be run into the ground doing all the things everyone is expecting him to do all the time. Hopefully I'm wrong

If I just saw him as a RB, then I would hate the pick. We needed a chest piece to counter Lavonte David, Stephone Anthony, and Dion Jones that lived in our backfield, I want to force these guys to cover McCaffrey in space. Tevin Coleman and Devonta Freeman torched Denvers defense. James White torched Atlanta Defense. We needed a similar and better player on this offense

We need a OC that can show he has more ingenuity than a triple fake reverse jump screen play (that hasn't worked yet )

But cams accuracy and shulas stupidity is going to hurt his production immensely

Well Shula is still our OC and we still got Stew....and McCaffrey will be a rookie.  So he likely won't be playing absurd reps. 

I am not endorsing him returning punts but kicks? As a rookie? I got no issue getting on the field as much as possible.  Stew did it...to get on the field
