Ah ok. Hopefully just a case of buffalo playing good D then. Still hoping for more from a rb2 I guess.

No sorry, a 30 year old lifelong plodder shouldn't be getting more touches than an 8th overall draft pick

i am a fan of mccaffrey, but he is not going to be a bell cow. they way car is using both of them should give each better opportunities for their skill sets (and extend stewart's season)

I'm a huge fan of McCaffrey, but damn, the dude took SO many hits over the middle with Elway hanging him out to dry.

 

Dude really should take Rod Smith's lead.

McCaffery owners got screwed. Late in the 2nd half McCaffrey was WIDE OPEN for an easy TD.

 

Cam Newton over threw him by a mile.... it was a 5 yard screen pass. Lordy he sucks.

Newton hasn't regained his mediocre accuracy after the off-season surgery. But at this point I'm regretting spending an early round pick on "Run CMC" because he's not getting enough touches. Guy needs 15+ (8-10 runs, 8-10 catches) to really have an opportunity.

This is just a patently incorrect statement. Hell, JStew was the 13th overall pick in his draft, 2nd RB selected behind McFadden (who was of course, drafted WAY too early by the Raiders). He was somewhat unfortunate to get drafted by a team that had used a 1st round pick on DeAngelo Williams just 2 years before. But Stewart came into that draft as one of the most complete backs in recent history, comparable to Adrian Peterson, but with slightly less speed, but better hands and better blocking. Stewarts problems were his feet. He suffered through injuries that prompted Carolina to use a split with him and Williams for a long time then had TD's vultured from him by Newton later on. You've clearly never seen him at his peak and healthy (which admittedly wasn't very often, but the dude was never a plodder).

You can say that again :), but in all seriousness, I like the Run CMC moniker, he is going to be very dependent on screen plays and the like so has upside in PPR, but he is really going to vary week to week, I know he isn't "small" but he still just isn't big enough to be the bell cow

I guess this depends on the league.

 

In my league Hunt was first Fournette second and D Cook was third.

 

Mccaffery was picked fourth.
