McCaffrey RB

I like the kid as an athlete a great deal.  I think he is, without a doubt, the best receiving RB in the draft and that is a critical measure.  I just don't see him as the battering ram we need on short yardage and goal line situations. 

If he slipped to the 2nd round?  I would use him like how they started to use Sexy, and put him in a stable of 3 RBs.  However, I don't see that happening and I still see a great deal of talent in the draft that can help the Bengals before him.  

He had one of the best lines? False.  He struggled when they had turnover? False. People confuse draftable lineman with good lines. They run a pro style offense, so teams draft their lineman because they are more pro ready, similar to Wisconsin, but it doesn't mean they are good hence them not really doing much in the NFL besides DeCastro.

His yards per attempt were up this year and he scored more rushing TDs. The only decline for him this year was in usage not in production (253 carries to 337). I am going to say it since most people won't, if he was black he'd be a sure fire top 15 pick and no one would question it. The guy averaged 6.3 yards a carry this year in a power 5 conference! The same stigma black QBs had up until a couple years ago, white running backs still have. The only reason I am opposed to him for us is I don't think we will use him to his full potential, but the kid should be in the discussion with all the top backs, all he did was produce.
