He is the best kick returner in the NFL. We enjoyed great field position all day yesterday. Need to find a way to get the ball in his hands more. Jayden missed him twice yesterday. Once that turned into an interception. Those would have been big chunk plays.

He definitely brings value to the team. Kid is tough as nails and has hands. Think he has a future long term rule on this team.

Re: What's up with McCaffrey?

I hate to say this because I like the player's potential but IMO our fans are overrating him a touch. He was very effective in returning kicks, he sees the hole well. But I believed that was more the blocking, he certainly does not have the twitch, accelation or top end speed to ever be a threat as a returner. He may develop into a reliable receiver but that's still to be determined. IMO if this team wants to win a ring they will need weapons a bit above where I believe McCaffery will land.

He does have value and he could very well develop into a legit WR2. But I think that is still in question.

I think his consistent lack of separation prevent him from being a definite #2 but still wouldn't be shocked if ultimately gets that. Love everything else about him and with his work ethic and bloodlines, he definitely has talent and a lot of potential. His hands, route running, and toughness are top notch. Happy to have him on the team.

Yes he is. The kid clearly has great vision and fearlessness. This and wr are definitely his future with this team. Love the bloodlines.

I noticed that too. He read the holes correctly, but doesn't look to have the second gear to take it to the house.

I don't expect him to take one back....as long as he puts the offense in great field position....

It would almost require a perfect play for him to take one to the house considering his speed level. I like his ball protection and modest gains on returns though.

He's definitely fast enough to take one to the house. He's faster than his brother...

Well, being able to see the hole is damn good ability to have and I'd rank it higher than having top end speed.

He runs a sub 4.5 40, he’s got enough speed

Hope you're right. I rarely see him run without a lot of defenders on him or wide open on completions so haven't seen the speed dynamic. He's been solid on returns though.
