If McCaffrey is still there I actually wouldn't be opposed to that. He could potentially have an even bigger impact on our offense than Cooks did.

Said about him the other day
I really think this offense needs a 3rd down back
Heard a podcast the other day and they were saying move him from a pass catching RB to a slot receiver who plays snaps at RB and receives out of the backfield

I cant not see Payton taking one toy with 5 picks in the first three rounds
I do wonder if they are thinking of Mixon for a similar role having spoke to him.
Mixon has Sproles speed in a 6'1 220lb frame. That is a mismatch if ever i have seen one

Or

Curtis Samuel*, RB/WR, Ohio State
Height: 5-11. Weight: 197.
Projected 40 Time: 4.44.
Projected Round (2017): 1-2.
2/25/17: Sources have compared Samuel to Percy Harvin in terms of being a fast, explosive play-maker who is a hybrid wide receiver/running back. In 2016, Samuel had 74 receptions for 865 yards with seven touchdowns. On the ground, he averaged 7.9 yards per carry for 771 yards and eight scores.

Samuel has play-making upside for the NFL. As a pro, he will be more of a receiver than a running back. Samuel runs quality routes with the speed and suddenness to get separation. He can stretch teams vertically and is a dangerous run-after-the-catch receiver. With his speed and bulk, Samuel could line up as a slot or outside receiver to produce mismatches. He also could operate out of the backfield at times. If Samuel goes to a creative offensive coordinator, he could be a real weapon.

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!
