A failure to trade Christian McCaffrey will cost us Trevor or Fields

Another waste of thread space with this nonsense.

The only way for Tepper to save any face right now is to ship CMC away for everything we can get.

[ForJimmy]

CMC is young and proven to be elite. Lawrence and Fields are not proven yet.

We've all seen what McCaffrey can do, he can break games open, and will win even the worst team in the NFL to a couple of wins.

You don't think if CMC was on the Bengals last year they eke out 2 extra wins?  There will be a few 200 yard CMC games that we unfortunately win if we don't trade him.

On the other hand, by the time Lawrence is in his 2nd season, CMC will be an old and broken down running back on a maximum salary.

So there's no reason to hang on to CMC.  He costs us draft position this year, and won't be in his prime by the time our new QB is ready.

The only reason to keep him at this point would be to sell tickets and merch.  So this is a test of how bad Tepper wants to win versus make money.

 

The 2010 team had Steve Smith, Deangelo Williams, and Jonathan Stewart. CMC is 0-5 at the goal line with the game on the line in 2019, that is not necessarily true. 

I sort of felt bad for KA for that reason, how can he win games when the 4 times he has the team there he doesn't get the ball but once in 4 downs.

[WOW!!]

Top 5 pick isn't good enough.

We need a top 2 pick, and probably top 1 (Fields is risky).

 

There is more then 1 franchise QB in next years draft thoe.. Lawrence isn't the only target.. Fields, Newman, Trey Lance are also probably coming out next year..  A top 5 pick next year secures you a QB ..

[bobowilson]

Not only are we paying a running back 64 million

We're paying him 64 million dollars to prevent us from finding a franchise quarterback in next year's draft

One of the worst moves in franchise history

If you liked this extension, enjoy watching your perpetually 5-11 or 6-10 Panthers for the next half decade.

We’re not trading CMC because maybe we’re not trying to tank for Trevor or Fields. Maybe we are trying to win with CMC and the best QB in this year’s draft “Tua Tagovailoa”.

I don’t think we go offense in the first. I think it will be Simmons IMO. But based off of players and others comments, we are trying to win now.

I know that Rodrigue has come out and say it herself that Rhule will go heavily on defense. End of the day, she doesn’t know much more than we do. She gets paid to ask questions and report on it. She doesn’t get paid to be inside the war room. If a qb like Tua is there at 7, I’ll bet my money that Rhule takes him over anyone else. I’m sure Rhule and co. have done their jobs and are still doing more for all possibilities. Even, trading up for Burrow, Tua or Chase. I think that we have done more to fix the defensive side of the ball compare to the offense during this offseason.

You know who tried to tank for a QB? Miami, and look at where that has left them.

[LinvilleGorge]

Our D might just be terrible enough to land a top two pick anyway. Teddy and his 14 TDs ain't gonna overcome this historically bad defense we're going to field.

[AggieLean]

Yea, I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Teddy and the offense will be involved in a couple offensive shootouts to begin the year (with us on the losing end), and by week 9 or 10 the team will have damn near given up with us finishing the year on another long losing streak.

This defense will be bad.
