Suppose CMC is part of the deal for Watson

Cmac is the only player we have that has the ability to score on any play he touches the ball.

 

Have you forgotten all the times he's broken 40 plus yd tds?

I am not sure what answer you expected to this question but it is 5 times in 1014 touches(this includes the playoffs). 

2017: 0 TD's of 40+ yds.

2018: 1 TD's of 40+ yds.

2019: 4 TD's of 40+ yds.

2020: 0 TD's of 40+ yds. 

DJ Moore, Robby Anderson and Curtis Samuel also all have the ability to score anytime they touch the ball.

Can we stop throwing his name around in a deal. If we trade cmc we take an automatic cap hit of 21 million. That is almost IMPOSSIBLE .That makes watson salary hard to even carry over here.

Yep.  This.

 

Can someone remind me why in the hell we gave him a ridiculous contract extension 2 years early?   That has to be one of the dumbest moves in recent history.

Yeah, I would love to be able to move CMC's contract but that probably can't happen for another offseason or two with the dead cap hit it entails. We are essentially talking about what Houston is staring down the barrel of, a massive contract that was just signed and taking the maximum amount of dead cap hit possible for that contract.

No they don't. The 3 of them combined barely exceed his value.

Just like all our recievers in 2015 didn't add up to one Steve Smith.

I don't think you really have any concept of player evaluation nor positional value in the modern NFL.

I am very much against trading CMC and Houston has indicated they want defensive players but for conversation.

What if we ended up trading CMC to get Watson.  Do you think Reggie Bonnafan could fill the role of CMC?  I know he's not as electric but has shown he can make big plays from the same position.

If CMC were put in the package I would have to believe that Fitterer and Rhule might believe that Reggie could be a CMC-light. 

I think if we trade CMC then resigning Samuel becomes a priority. Bringing back Mike Davis would be a plus.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
