McCaffrey is a far better receiver than Gurley ever was. He could start at wideout for some teams. So when you look at the roster and the value placed in him with that contract you get some spill over from that wideout side of things since he contributes in that different role and with Matt Rhule as their head coach I think they expect the receiving side responsibilities to grow.
So yeah it's a mistake I agree. But less of a mistake than us paying Gurley.
Agree with all of that. McCaffrey is definitely a different breed of cat. Might be the modern day version of Marshall Faulk and Roger Craig.
