Anyone wish we had Fournette instead of CMC

[Jackofalltrades]

I’d rather have Bo Jackson.

You keep beating this drum lol. Take away two 70+ yard runs away and his average isn't that good? I don't understand the hate here lol.

That was straight Alice poo that ECU was pulling right there lol

[Bartin]

Pull up any Bama-LSU highlights

Thats what Fournette would look like on this team. It wouldn’t matter.

I do. 

Was pissed when the Jags got him. Fournette is going to have an amazing career

Did they ever say what Gettleman offered to try to trade up for him? I wonder what it would have taken

[electro's horse]

lol is there anyone that doesn't?

Yet...CMC leads all rookies in receptions and receiving yards. 

Teams literally have devoted more defensive game plans to limiting him than anyone other player on our roster not including Cam.  You could argue he has been the most gameplannee against player given how teams viewed  Cam the first few weeks. 

Yet we arnt getting the benefits from that attention. Sometimes but for the most part we are out thinking our own game plans. If he's being given so much attention then other parts should be wide open. I haven't seen enough of us using those openings to our advantage vs just going to CMC anyway. 6 games in we should be seeing alot more hay from this extra attention. 

Barnette on the other hand made the Eagles so much stronger and is commanding double teams. Their D is so much like ours except no young powerful DE to get after the QB allowing us to run more 4 rushes than all these crazy blitz's giving big holes in the pass plays.

We are taking Nick Chubbs in 2018

It ain’t CMC’s fault Olsen is hurt....it ain’t CMC’s fault our O which has always been built on the vertical pass attack doesn’t have a single vertical threat. 

We are benefiting from it.  Look at the defensive coverages we are seeing.  We just can’t take advantage of it because we lack the WR to expose the coverage.....and as TNF showed lacked the OL play (but I don’t expect that to be a consistent issue)

Its the teams fault for drafting a great talent to a team that doesn't know how to use him. 6 games is more than enough time to see something and we still haven't. Injuries are never an excuse for poor personnel choices. We chose to let Ginn go without a replacement. We chose to run these tricky dumb plays that go no where. We chose to not sign or use a guy in Ginns role. We chose to run CMC with weird blocking assignments. We chose this and it was a bad choice. We don't use him right. It's so unfair to him too.

Stat-wise, we drafted the best receiver in the draft at 8.

He just happens to be able to run the ball too.

He leads all rookies in receptions and receiving yards....so how do they not know how to use him?  You act like he isn’t producing. 

We are only 6 games into a season and his career.  Total overreaction.  Tons of all pros and HOFers have less impressive 6 game starts.  Way too early for all this talk. 

Hell, Ron, Cam and Carolina tradionally don’t even get started rolling until Nov historically.  Don’t be shocked when he is busting off 150 total yard games with a couple scores in Nov/Dec.

ultimately it's an exercise in pointlessness like every other "anyone else think we should have drafted/signed x" thread

so you're asking if anyone else wishes the panther roster was some kind of hellish chimera of the best players to come out of the draft for several years in a row?  uh, yes?
