Why can't the Panthers have nice things? Cam, Luke, now likely CMC just in recent years. All generational type talents. All derailed by injury.

NFL = Not For Long. 

That's what it meant 50 years ago, it still means the same today. Stop blaming the franchise that it is part of the most brutal sport of modern day. 

In another 50 years, the league won't even exist because our society won't even let people voluntarily sign up.

Which they will most likely do.

    There is an opt out on any contract, every year. It’s just deciding if it is worth it. And this isn’t even valid information as his restructure isn’t on there. The correct one is below.  12.8M dead cap after a 14M hit for 2022. 
 

Current Contract

Christian McCaffrey signed a 4 year, $64,063,500 contract with the Carolina Panthers, including a $21,500,000 signing bonus, $38,162,500 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $16,015,875. In 2021, McCaffrey will earn a base salary of $990,000, a restructure bonus of $7,047,500 and a workout bonus of $200,000, while carrying a cap hit of $6,899,500 and a dead cap value of $33,537,500.

It has come to this.  Yes they need to opt out 

What will they do with all the CMC items in the team store 

What is his  coming off IR probability to play against NE ? 

 

He’s definitely not playing immediately the week he comes off IR. Probably the week after that. Really, who the hell knows ? I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t play another down this season.

The dude will still be worth a 1st at that point. 

Nobody is trading a first for cmc regardless if he comes back next year and plays 17 games. We are one of the few nfl teams that still drafts rbs in the top 10. The other team off the top of my head is the giants and look at Barkley. We are a poorly run franchise. Nfl teams do not value rbs like that. Add in injury history and we would be  lucky to get a 2nd from a team.

      Tetairoa McMillan - Your 2025 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year - (Welp... Guess I Was Right)

      By cranky · Posted

      Just chasing targets is a fools game. Chase averaged 85 yrds and .76 TDs per game his first year and 87.16 yrds, and .75 TD's per game his second year. Statistically the same. NOT an improvement. Puka saw no increase either. Yes, Waddle's went down because he had to share targets with another receiver - just like TMac will have to share targets with Coker next year so you have actually just made my point concerning Coker. Olave saw an increase in targets but Carr replaced Dalton and even with the increase in targets, his production was pretty flat (83 extra yards and 1 more TD for the entire year). And Wilson's number did increase but the Jets replaced the other two receivers and their contribution was significantly down from Davis's and Moore's. Again, nothing in those numbers should lead anyone to believe there will be a big leap for Tmac next year.

      See my previous post. You're also leaving out that T-Mac was likely hitting a rookie wall, like 95% of rookies do late in their first season, combined with the added attention on him by defenses, which in turn would be why Bryce looked Coker's way down the stretch.  With Coker playing like that to start next year, defenses will have to pay attention to it, which will then also make things easier for T-Mac. All of which is also ignoring that T-Mac will just be a better player next year than he was this year, assuming he works on his game this offseason, which we all know he will be.  If a player who was already your clear cut #1 comes back even better his next season, you're going to make sure you're throwing it his way more often, no matter who else you have. Again, Coker's added targets won't be at the expense of T-Mac's, they will BOTH be taking targets from the rest of the team.  Not to mention, we should be passing it more next year to begin with, seeing as we'll have both of them hopefully ready to go full speed Week 1, which again, will help both their target totals increase. Coker looks like a really good player, but even the most optimistic person can't say he looks like he has #1 potential, he has very solid to maybe even high end #2 potential.  You're not taking targets away from the reigning OROY who looks like a true Top 15 WR already to get your #2 targets, you increase both of them by taking from the others.

      Need to crush the hawks tonight. A lose would really damage momentum
