Training camp is pretty much verifying everything I've seen from McCaffrey and more-so. 

He doesn't seem to be slowing down against NFL competition. Can't wait to see how far he goes.

The thing that excites me the most is the fact that he came in a little more buff than expected (I'd love to know what he weighed in at), but still has the quickness and explosiveness that made him so dangerous in college.

That's gonna be huge for his durability. Can't wait to see him in action soon!

So, Christian McCaffrey completely jukes out Luke Kuechly in the following:

Considering that's the best linebacker in the game right now, I think CMC should be fine doing similar stuff against a defense. This particular formation just became even more enticing:

Get him a one on one against linebackers, and he'll deliver. The particular play above is a standard defense against 11-personnel: 2 Safeties, 2 Linebackers, 3 Corners, 4 Defensive Linemen. 

Pit Olsen against a SS, bunch 3 WRs against the corners, and keep CMC in the backfield against the LBer. Olsen against a SS is already a mismatch in it of itself, but adding McCaffrey as a wrinkle gives this play a whole new meaning of deadly.

With McCaffrey on an island against one linebacker, CMC can simply cut and run right past him for an easy completion and likely first down or more.

I'm so excited for the kid.

I love that formation. Olsen on the outside. On the bunch trips I would have Curtis on the inside for the jet sweeps, screens etc. KB be up top for slants and Fun fun on the outside.

I hope that drawn formation will be used at some point.

McCaffrey cutting inside and finding holes to gain 3-4 yards is nothing new.

As seen from his college tape, watch McCaffrey pace himself, find that hole he loves, cut, and slam right through it, turning nothing into something.

I may be all wrong but believe on passing downs why would you want one of our better receivers blocking except to be a decoy? With him and Olsen on the field together there is going to be a mismatch especially with a speedster going deep.

That's also an interesting argument. I think Stewart will be our primary blocker on passing downs, but that doesn't mean we won't see McCaffrey on the field making clutch plays himself.

If this pans out :D :D scary offense and scary defense

So what you're saying is,  McCaffrey is the goat.
