Draft analyst: Safest RB in draft for Panthers isn’t Leonard Fournette or Dalvin Cook
In this week’s “Three and Out” podcast, I’m joined by NBC Sports/Rotoworld Draft Analyst Josh Norris to break down the NFL combine – including an eye-opening realization about the draft’s most complete back.
No, it’s not fan-favorite Leonard Fournette. And no, it’s not even Dalvin Cook, with his troubling background.
Instead, it’s Stanford’s do-it-all athlete Christian McCaffrey, who Norris believes is “the safest pick” at running back in this year’s draft, and a possible move for the Panthers.
The only problem?
They might miss him.
