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.

Exactly...

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.

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

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      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 are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. 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?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
