Hate not getting a first,but that's not a bad haul.

It's about as good as you could expect for a RB that has been pretty injury prone.

Can CMC outplay that haul? Without any question whatsoever. Can we get more for him? Extremely unlikely. 

This is ultimately how it goes when you invest that kind of capital in a RB in the modern NFL era. 

It sucks overall but it was probably the right decision.  I wish CMC the best, he has been the consumate professional here.

This... To add in 40 years I can't think of a team getting a better haul for a Rb since H Walker..

Yeah, we are just one of those franchises that didn't get the memo on building around a RB. And CMC is probably the best in the NFL but even then it just doesn’t jibe with modern football to give out those kind of contracts.

And this is Shanahan's attempt to add so many weapons it will offset how injury plagued the 49ers are and make up for having Jimmy G.

2023 2nd,3rd,4th round picks. 2024 5th round pick 

Since those are 49er picks you may as well think of those as high 3rd high 4th and high 5th 

I would've liked this more if the 49ers were actually a bad team and those picks were higher

They just lost to the Falcons by 14 and still have multiple injuries.. 

It not like they are the Bills..

Well, are they a good team? Jimmy G already has a wealth of weapons and they have struggled offensively. Not to mention they are very banged up. Finally, they have lost to the Bears, Broncos and Falcons who are a combined 7-11 so far.

I don't know that I buy that is a team that is going to make a late run in the playoffs, or win a lot of games.

There is no reason to be hysterical about this. The thoughts of getting a first round pick for CMC were ludicrous. His contract and injury history removed that from being a possibility. As did the overall value of RB's.

Let it play out and see what those draft picks net. If they all end up being squandered, let everyone bitch until they are blue in the face.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      By strato · Posted

      Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade.

      Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
