Stewbo Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Theres no question, hes easily the best player in the draft. People read too much in to players wanting to play for a specific team. They are allowed to be fans as well y'know. Plenty of players have said the same thing, even on draft day and its forgotten about almost immediately.

Stewbo Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Running backs on show at the combine today. Keen to see how Samaje Perine follows up his crazy bench press results with the speed drills. Could give him a mega boost if he doesnt post a slow 40/3 cone time. Expecting to see good things from the usual Cook and Fournette, but the rest of the class is a bit of a mystery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 They did the bench press yesterday. McCaffrey managed 10 while lowest went to San Diego States Donell Pumphery with 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising considering McCaffery is a glorified shane vereen and Pumphrey weighs about the same as my right arse cheek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerSaint Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 McCaffrey is my favourite RB in this draft. Not as powerful or explosive as Fournette, but he has great vision and patience to set up his blockers and is an excellent receiver. He can do it all.

1320Lichtie Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Said it a few times but for some reason I just can't take to mccaffrey. Fournette is a fucking beast but don't think he's got too long a career in him, pretty injury prone is he not? Wish I could remember players better must've watched nearly every college game on BT last year and struggling putting names to players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_A Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I'm with GingerSaint here I love McCaffrey as well, He won't be the best RB in this Draft but if he ends up on a team that will use him properly he'll be excellent, Patriots or the Bucs would be a decent fit for him. If he goes to the Broncos I'll be gutted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just cant get on board with him, I dont see the vision as a runner and between the tackles he's mediocre at best. If Im wrong then I'll hold my hands up, but i dont think hes anything special. So many more talented guys in the class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many more talented guys in the class McCaffrey had a lot more decisions to make behind the line of scrimmage than Fournette for example. The stretch zone running scheme of Stanford relied on him creating his own plays and that's something I value, especially having to watch the Jets terrible OL every week. Also love that he returns punts/kicks and is willing to work out as a WR. Great attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antiochas III Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Eagles have won the coin toss over the Colts so will pick 14th. Came about as the Eagles held the Vikings 1st round pick - who's record was tied with the Colts. The Colts will have the 15th pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much of his rushing production came to the outside in space though, i just dont think he'll get that opportunity in the pros. Id probably like him a lot more as a receiver tbh, hes a really good pass catcher and route runner. I know no back is perfect in this class, but i like the role of about 8 of them over McCafferys. I just dont like betting on receiving backs after Duke Johnson let me down a couple years back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
