my main gripe isnt that he's white (though its a pretty big thing, the best white RBs are mediocre gimmick players), its that we picked the 4th most talented RB at number 8 when we needed secondary help and the drafts best CB and FS were on the board.

guess we're gonna see more julio 300 yard games. you wont see mr. swiss army knife returning many punts next year.

The 4th best RB?

He is the 2nd best back and it's not even close. Have you seen his tape at all? Like seriously, have you?

I will give an argument he's better than Mixon and Cook anyday.

LOL, good God dude.  Are you serious?  Mixon and Cook are both more talented.  Hell, you could argue Mixon is better than McCaffrey in every facet of the game.

Yikes!

I think he is going to get destroyed unfortunately.  I mean we don't have the brain power on staff to use him correctly like NE could.

Love Cam but he's gonna have to get used to the height differential between McCaffrey and the rest of the WR core.  He's not Steve Smith who can jump 5 feet in the air for those high bullets Cam throws.  It's going to take a lot of reps for Cam to get used to going through his progressions ready to throw to wither a 6'5 WR or 5'11 slot receiver.  I'm optimistic he can do it, because he knows he has to and he can.  It's just gonna take some time.

He throws to Fozzy real well. Matter of fact, our short passes to fozz had a lot of positive gains. Just think what we can do with a better Fozzy.

is it or me or did gettlemen seem a little dejected in his presser?  I didnt see that bubbly personality when he talks about something hes excited about.

Must have been hard having Adams right there and just missing out. I'm sure he, like all of us, was hoping one of either Adams, Fournette, or Thomas would fall into our laps.

That being said, I'm sure he loves McAffrey, too. Looks like we had him rated higher than the CBs and OJ Howard, so I would think he was 5th on our big board. Not bad getting one of your top 5 guys picking at 8.

Yeah, things shook out horribly for us and we ended up at plan C or D. Just got to roll with it and hope CMC turns out to be a decent player. Gettleman's history in the first isn't that great anyways, so we can try and focus in on the later rounds where he usually shines/puts in work.

all class right there...

I'm excited to watch Cam overthrow him for years to come.

So glad we didn't pick Lattimore.  That guy is going to be injured half the time he is on the Saints roster.
