Cmac should be untouchable.

Burns Brown Chinn Moton are the rest of my untouchables.

Imagine a RB being untouchable for a franchise QB.

If Verge wasn’t saying these things, I’d be right there with you, but she is dependable with her sources.

Don’t pay running backs second contracts. Especially ones used at the volume that cmc is used. What we saw this year with missing all these games will more than likely be the norm for him going forward. It’s just the way it is with rbs. This franchise overvalues positions like rb and linebacker. That contract is terrible. And we signed him way too early.
 

we have plenty of weapons around for deshaun to be effective. We can also draft more.

A) CMC isn’t just a rb

B) there’s no way of knowing if this year was going to be the new norm for him. We paid him early precisely so by the end of his second contract would be when he carries start catching up with him, not at the beginning of his second contract.  And if we had waited and gave him a second contract a year or two later it would have been even bigger due to contract inflation

C) I’m not completely against trading CMC, but not along with three 1sts. If we were to trade CMC for picks we’d easily get more than a 1st. Maybe two. Four or five firsts value is a bit too much. I’m all for going big for Watson but not THAT gd big

i'd give up four, if the new GM is good he can make do with 2nds and 3rds and free agents with the defensive core we have already.  With DeShaun behind center we own this division for most of the decade

He's a HOF caliber player and one of the best weapons in the NFL. 

I don't like getting rid of the best players at their position in the league.

I love CMC, but if parting with him brings us a proven franchise QB, make it happen.

TB, CMC #8, 2022 1st, 2023 1st. If you don’t make that deal you are misinformed on what it takes to win a Super Bowl.

We could draft Michael Carter out of UNC, resign Davis and may be the favorites out of the South in 2021. That’s how big of a deal Watson is....

Throw in Shaq and I could get behind that deal.

Even back when the league was run heavy, look at how many teams  won whose RB ate one of the top 3 salaries of their cap space...  For as long as I can remember the teams that win it have a budget back and/or run by committee.  I love CMC, and yes, he is more than just a RB, but he is primarily a RB, and that cannot be the player you build an offense around, period.  Teddy had 3 receivers eclipse 1k total yards this year, and that still wasn't enough for our offense to win, because those players had to do it themselves.  9 times out of 10, if your best player on offense isn't your QB, you're not going to win a Superbowl.  Period.  So, if it takes CMC to get Watson, so be it.
