Akers seems like a dude to stay away from.  He was given such a prime opportunity in the Rams offense and couldn't pass Henderson.  And I can see McVay turning a corner with Stafford more than Shanahan with Jimmy.  That 2nd rounder is pick 43 right now which is nice.

Why in the world would we take a player that was benched.  They were figuring they could get the super talented CMC and dump their problem child in our laps.  I hated to see CMC go because I hate the 49ers.  That hatred goes all the way back to our time in the NFCW before the change in 2002. 

Most believe that we got the better end of the trade.  SF believes they are on the cusp of a Super Bowl and CMC might be their ticket.   I'm not so sure.  Jimmy G is hot or cold, nothing inbetween.  Shanihan may scheme plays for CMC but he'll be taking food off the table for others on that team.  

That might not go so well.

I will pull for 49er loses each we.  The more loses the more valuable our picks become.

      The Cavalry is Coming

      I'll be honest.  I'm not sure I want to see any those guys returning right now given what others are presently doing.... minus Coker.  Hubbard returning likely messes the run game up (I mean, it's going to come down regardless but he still), Tremble and Evans actually are doing well, Corbett seems to make us worse up front, and the D has made some strides.  I'd like to just keep that whole lot on the shelf this week.

      Ikem Ekwonu is slated to GET PAID

      By Basbear · Posted

      I don't think people know that Icky is still only 25 years old. Panthers signed UDFAs older this year and drafted DJ Johnson. Heres a fact, a deep fact.... Its easier(much) to find a good-great QB than good-great LT. Another fact there's only 12-15 true LTs and the others are larping as LT.  SO....(I'm not a fan btw)......you nearly must resign him at all cost even with him being around the 12th best at times. Its the hardest spot to fill and he's still awful young with 4 years as a pro. Carolina already got 4 years of "cheap" service as well, that's invested time and effort.  The fan-side of me hopes he signs some top 5 at best top 3 big money deal. Just the cap keeps growing and LTs, young LT with experience are rrrrrrare and unique. Tag him if needed and tag him again, then trade him. I think he enjoys being/living in NC.  I hope he's stays on a team friendly deal, but those are soooo rare these days.  Only two options- pay him whatever, even if it's top $$$$$(uggggghhhh..) or tag him for 2027 and keep trying to pay. Worst outcome is trading him for couple 1s, 3s, and 5th maybe a player too.

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By CRA · Posted

      I always loved DJ Moore.  I don't see him wanting to comeback here.  He seems to be tired of inconsistent QB play and you finally see that bubbling over in Chicago.  or maybe he just doesn't like the people.  He actually seemed fine with Fields.....and lobbied for them not to draft Caleb.  So maybe it's just a Caleb issue (and I think Caleb might have tons of baggage/issues that rub folks wrong)
