CJ Anderson may become a cancer?

[FakePlasticTrees]

If I am honest it does appear that his playing time has been extremely limited. It was also noticeable that he played after CAP with very limited reps before being replaced by Barner.

When he has played he has looked solid, which serves to make his limited reps that much more noticeable. I definitely feel like there is a missing piece to the puzzle.

Im honestly surprised he hasn't been integrated at all with the 1's yet this off-season, or did I miss that?  Guy coming off a 1k season its very odd how lightly we are using him.  

I think it is more that Norv is comfortable with what CJ brings and is test driving CMC as feature back and also wants to evaluate who RB3 will be.

Garbage post 

CMC, CAP & CJ are locked in

What do you suppose the Dallas coaching staff would do if at some point we lined up with both CMC and CJ in the backfield?

The answer is: Even they don't know because there's zero film of that.

That said, I don't know if that's Norv's strategy or not, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Maybe RR is limiting his carries in preseason because he is a proven, veteran back and he wants him healthy for the regular season?

Bingo and cj was the best pass blocking back in the league last season,mainly due to the putrid line the broncos had last season.

That's my feel on it too. We are load at RB right now, got to figure out who to keep.

I think we're trying to give CAP an opportunity to get on film and maybe be picked up by other teams.  We know what we have in CJ. The battle is CAP/Barner, and I think Barner has won that, with Hood making case for PS.

I do wonder why some of mcaffreys carries didn’t go to CJ. Mcaffrey got a lot of work this preseason. Almost too much

Ron Rivera interviews says otherwise. He is gonna get more snaps this season  so they are trying to figure out how to utilize him.

Common theme between all the back is they gotta run hard and still go out and catch the ball.

This is Rivera’s team and running the ball is one of the foundation for this team. If you have doubts just ask the defense when they got their extended rest.

I worry that CJ may become a distraction on this team.  It is obvious he has a huge chip on his shoulder and it appears he came to the Panther's believing he would become the lead back and step into the role vacated by JStew.  However - if his utilization seen so far in preseason continues - he will become very disgruntled.  I try not to read between the lines in player's tweets, especially when they are purposely vague  - but he seems to already be making noise.

RBs further down the depth chart are getting carries that they won't get in the reg season because its preseason. CAP and Hood in particular.
