RB/WR/DB Demario McCall (Official Thread)

I'm cool with Dobbins getting 70% of the carries and McCall being used in a similar manner to Samuels in '16. Or just mismatches on crossing routes and out of the backfield.

I always thought he was heir aparent to the Curtis Samuels roll in the offense it really surprised me when he disappeared

Can I just say, Samuel. Curtis Samuel. And for completely unrelated good measure, it was Joe Burrow. Carry on.

McCall can't stay healthy. He won't be a factor this year. Guys like Gill could get his reps.

Miss dings.

 

[Taosman]

Miss tolerance.

 

[BayBuck]

Still taos=fail

 

[Taosman]

Boring..again.

 

[RugbyBuck]

When was there ever tolerance?

DeMario is a playmaker. If he can stay healthy we have got to get him on the field imho.

Especially on 3rd down I think... very versatile player.

Fully agree, but where??? We are absolutely stacked at skill positions

Here's how I see McCall's role...

Put him in the backfield on 3rd down and motion him out of the backfield. It's now 5 wide and the defense has a LB lined up on Demario. The potential is endless.

Or we keep him in and we run a wheel route for a big gain.

This dude, if he stays healthy is Kamara 2.0

That Sounds good, but Dobbins can do all of that(though I'd like to see a nice 3rd down rotation)... I can see Dobbins being used in every type of way, like a mini-Zeke, and being left in, especially in big games(Nebraska, Ped St, Mich St, Wiscy and The Game). Guys like McCall and Teague will see most of their touches in blowouts, IMO
