Email from Bradlee: With the Kelvin Benajmin trade, which rookie will be MORE IMPORTANT to the overall offensive success? Continued usage of Christian McCaffrey or Curtis Samuel’s ability to spread the field?
We may as well pick up where we left off.
The continued expansion of McCaffrey’s role is obviously a vital part of the Panthers’ future. So is the wait for the big play(s). But it’s not like he’s wasting away. The rookie leads the NFC in receptions and is the only player in the NFL this season with at least 150 rushing yards (183) and 50 catches (54).
