No he didn’t. He had less than 500 yds rushing, on 3.7 yds per carry and most here were saying that he was a wasted top 10 pick, we should have drafted someone else or that’ Kamara was better

Sounds familiar? We will here more of it after Sunday about Brooks 

He had another 600 yards receiving and showed dynamic playmaking ability... Over 1k from scrimmage as a rookie is pretty good. The concern was he was a RB that couldn't run between the tackles so he couldn't be an every down back.

To the point of limited production on the ground specifically, definitely.

As a rookie CMC had 1058 rush AND receiving yards.   That's not a struggling a rookie.  What was evident, is he needed to gain muscle to be able to run between the tackles as a rookie.  Which I commented on in that post.  He made that correction and 2 years later was a 2k RB with 1000k rushing and 1000k receiving and the hands down best RB in the game.  He did get a lot better, quickly.   

and rookie CMC still managed a better ypc than Jonathan Stewart that year.   We were run heavy.   Running into teams playing the run. 

and Alvin Kamara probably was a better value pick.  He was a half step behind CMC for a 3rd round value.  That's more acknowledging what what a steal Kamara was.
