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

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.

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. 

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.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks seem to be Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team). Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
