Panthers taking offers for Cmac in the off-season

It was always going to end this way after the contract we gave him. RBs never see the end of their big paydays, we will likely not get an offer that suits our needs due to his cap hit and then we'll have to release him at some point. Friggin sucks, I'd rather keep the guy and hope it works itself out but he suddenly can't stay healthy now either.

Is there an article stating this?  Seems like its just someone's opinion.

That being said, we probably will listen to offers. 

From Person's roster analysis in The Athletic...

Stays or goes? Stays

The Panthers would listen to offers for McCaffrey, who’s one of the league’s most versatile players. But it’s hard to imagine teams would give up much for a player who’s missed 23 of the past 33 games and still has $44 million left on his contract.

So it sounds like the person who made that IG post just took that first sentence and ran with it, implying that it was likely that CMC would be traded. Not technically dishonest, but misleading without full context.

CMC is a 26 million dead cap hit next year.   We ain't trading him next year.  Maybe in 2023 we can look to part with him. 

Nevermind, maybe we will.  Because Matt Rhule is in charge.  And Matt Rhule does Matt Rhule things.  Because Matt Rhule is the worst. 

It's crazy nobody understands this

Yeah, they were fishing for clicks.

The title of this thread is kind of inaccurate too. That's not what was being reported.

It's just another sign of a dysfunctional organization.

The concept of trading CMC isn't terrible, except that it is.

Every team in the NFL can look back and see that the dude has played 10 games in the last 32.  That's a HUGE hit to any trade value he might have.  No one is going to give us anything remotely resembling value for him.

If the Panthers think the guy can be healthy, there is literally ZERO reason to trade him.  The only reason they would consider it is because they DON'T have that belief.  Every other team can figure that out.

It's just dumb, dysfunctional Panthers again if the report is true.

Huh.

McCaffrey has played in as many games as Rhule has won in that same timeframe, and we're actively looking to get rid of CMC...

And CMC is actually good.

thats a crazy number.

never ever give a RB a 2nd contract.  just draft another one in round 3.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
