What's up with McCaffrey?

Does anybody know why gets so little playing time? With Noah out I thought he might pick up some playing time, especially since he has an 80% target to catch percentage. Instead he had 12 snaps in 78 offensive plays, and 1 reception on 1 target for 0 yds yesterday??

There must be something in his game that Kingsbury or Daniels doesn't like?

I'm assuming that he is still raw and needs more time to learn how to run routes effectively.

They were using him as the primary kick-returner and he did a god job. Constantly got past the 30-yard line. Maybe he was playing less snaps on O to play more special teams?

Re: What's up with McCaffrey?

He isn't better than Brown. Dyami can produce if they keep going to him. He's ready but needs more opportunities. Didn't really like the McCaffrey pick. He isn't explosive like Brown is. They seem to judge wr's on how well they can block first.. lol. Kinda of a joke but they put a heavy emphasis on it.

He had a lot of snaps early in the season and didn’t produce.
These PFT grades say he’s better than Moss and Rice so there’s that.

This is the most likely answer

Re: What's up with McCaffrey?

i really like to se Ben S step up at TE, Zack is probably out for awhile

Ben has been a disappointment

Re: What's up with McCaffrey?

Yes! I was expecting a pass catching TE.
I’m surprised he hasn’t beat out bates as the receiving TE.

Outside of Sainristril and obviously JD, the draft hasn’t been productive.

I think the coaches heavily favor Ertz for pass catching. Both McCaffrey and Sinnott have shown good flashes - hard to knock them as draft picks.

Yup. I thought we would see him more like a half back role and just more involved. 2nd round pick, right around 50 pick in the draft?

You need to be contributing more.

I’m not worried McC at WR. Needs more seasoning

I want to see him play more. Kind of worried about his ability to separate consistently. Not worried about his hands or toughness. Both are solid. Hope to see him more.

Re: What's up with McCaffrey?

Also, gotta keep in mind, outside of QB, WR is thee most difficult or very very close to the top of the list on most difficult for rookies to make a huge impact.

Gotta have a little patience before we assign him to join Bieniemy and Howell at the nearest JiffyLube.
