I see him as jamaal charles meets leveon bell style of running and has the return game.

I'd be down on McCaff but he's got A+ ball security with a bazillion carries and excellent vision. Results. It's undeniable.

Yeah, he's got mileage, but his vision and style isn't plow into contact like a Montee Ball etc. He's fresh-ish.

IMO, he's more of a Percy Harvin kind of guy; he's dangerous when running, receiving, and returning. He's not quite as explosive, but is miles ahead in intangibles

He's never going to be a 30 touch per game guy (on a consistent basis that is) and we have seen a bit of a return to dominant running games. Pittsburgh, New England, Dallas, and Tennessee all come to mind.
On the other hand...if he lives up to being a solid slot guy he's the most versatile NFL player, at least on offense. Setting him in motion out of the backfield and into the slot...that's some style.

3 of the 10 picks are in round 7 dude.... Nobody is going to be beating down the door to get ahold of some 7th round picks. Broncos are.better off keeping them anyway and seeing if 1 of the 3 sticks.

I liked Jaded better when he wasn't here.

Seriously I wanted McCaffrey until the draft season started, he got ****** in the Heisman, but it's become neauseating. 1043 devotes 13 hours a day to discussing a RB nobody in this town would give a rats fat ass about if he wasn't a perfect and white legacy.

I feel you. I'm not sure I agree or disagree...but I feel you.

Although not as fast, I see McCaffrey as a Tyreek Hill type player. Where would KC's offense have been without that dude? Runs, catches, and returns. The guy is an offensive weapon. I'm not saying we need to trade up to get him but if McCaffrey falls to 20, I think we'd be stupid not to take him. Better him than reach for an OT who has a higher chance of being Ty Sambrailo than Joe Thomas.

Hmmm, I'm not sure his color matters to most people. I think his dynamic skill set is much more intriguing.
