McCaffrey preseason week 1 grade

[Jeremy Igo]

Christian McCaffrey, RB: The Panthers didn't fully show off their shiny new toy against the Texans, but it's easy to see why team officials are excited about McCaffrey's potential after watching him pick up 33 rushing yards on seven carries. McCaffrey repeatedly found creases on inside runs, exhibiting exceptional balance, body control and pitter-pat between the tackles. With the diminutive McCaffrey (5-foot-11, 205 pounds) flashing potential as a power runner, he could see more playing time on early downs and make an even bigger impact than some might imagine. Grade: B+

Diminutive? Really? We have a petite, teensy-weensy, midget of a RB? SMH.

I'm more satisfied with seeing him run between the tackles. We know what he can do in the open field as a receiver. But the fact that he showed success running the ball inside against that defensive line is a GREAT sign.

He's not short, just vertically challenged.
