Idk I was telling someone the other day it’s weird how quiet they have been about him. His first couple years u would see a video everyday at camp of him doing something crazy. Idk but the Panthers have been weird about the reports coming from camp, so secretive. Kinda weird imo!

Yes, he should be back to his old dominating self this year.  Considering that his injuries last year were not serious, did not require surgery, and that he likely would have been playing had we been in contention, I think all systems are go.  Expect a gigantic season from him:

2200 total yards

1200 rushing

1000 receiving

105 catches

23 total TDs.

If we're smart he's getting light work anyway.

 

Can you explain what you mean? I don't believe your best player should be beat into the ground. We should spread it around, spell McCaffrey more than we have in the past, but he shouldn't be getting "light work".

Light work in training camp? Yeah he should. RBs have a short enough shelf life as it is.

If McCaffrey has 100 plus catches it will sadly be to the detriment of the offense. That is more than either Robby or DJ had last year. The best value 22 has for us is the attention he commands. We have many weapons now. Put them all to use and make Sam's life easier.

And he ain't exactly fighting for a roster spot. Seriously, I shiver to think of him picking up a blitz from some on-the-fringe LB in camp.

We have a rookie who needs the snaps a lot more right now. We know what we have in CMC and we'll let him get his feet wet in the preseason. I hope we'll let Hubbard ease up the burden of his workload a little, but I expect him to be getting a ton of work when the games start counting.

I haven't seen anything about CMC lately - Is he back to pre-injury form? I finally get to pick #1 in my FF league, and plan to pick CMC, unless there are any red flags - How does he look?

Your mouse cursor should be on his name and as soon as your draft starts and you hear the jingle - you should just be clicking on cmc

    • What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.
    • With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking. 
    • We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
