Carolina has had a bad OL for years and a poor QB situation, and he's still been able to produce when healthy. McCaffrey is an ELITE talent. The only thing holding him back has been injuries, and he wouldn't have to be a focal point of our offense here. Plus we could get him involved in the pass game as another solution to the cover 2 defenses we're facing almost every week. Davis as a deep threat and McCaffrey as a short passing threat makes us basically immune to any kind of defensive scheme. It's a no brainer move assuming Carolina is willing to do it at a reasonable price. Quote

You're kind of prickly and inclined to take stuff personal, ain't ya? I'm laughing at the Panthers and the idea that they were savvy enough to include language that prevented him from double-dipping, but he can keep them on the hook by hitting the Barcalounger for a year-long nap. Oh, NOES, must be about YOU 😆 24 minutes ago, Boyst62 said: the contract still has 5+ years on it. 1 year ain't much. What's $834,000/month for 14 or 15 months, between friends? I mean, it's a point that relative to $40M, $10M or so ain't much, but for most of us 25% is a significant percentage, and $10M is a lot. 20 minutes ago, HappyDays said: Carolina has had a bad OL for years and a poor QB situation, and he's still been able to produce when healthy.

I don't see how we fit that in under the stated "draft-develop-resign" philosophy Beane has repeatedly stated. Edited October 10, 2022 by Beck Water Quote

I was told by someone in the know to expect the Panthers to chase a big name when the inevitable Rhule firing came. Watch Sean Payton and Jim Harbaugh. Sean Payton is obviously a name that keeps coming up with various fan bases unhappy with their coach. When you look at all the guys on the hot seat I guess this is Carolina just getting in early before the likes of Washington and Denver Quote

I don't understand all the details but several knowledgeable people on Twitter have said that we would only owe him $600K this season and could cut him in the offseasom without any dead cap for 2023. Carolina would retain most of his salary. Quote

I presume $600k reflects the fact that you would be paying 11/17 games worth of the $1m. 1 Quote

Carolina would retain most of his salary. Carolina wouldn't retain his salary, but your twitter sources seem to be correct that he has a low salary this season and no guarantees. Most of his money is in signing and restructure bonuses, which Carolina would have to eat to the tune of $27M or something like that. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/carolina-panthers/christian-mccaffery-21749/ So there are two issues: 1) Carolina isn't gonna want to eat that without getting a significant resource in return, like a couple high draft picks 2) if you take the viewpoint that he's a cheap 1 year rental and then we cut him and move on, does it make sense to give up a couple high draft picks for a 2/3 season rental? There are a couple of viewpoints on that, but I don't think that's the way Beane operates. Edited October 10, 2022 by Beck Water Quote
HomeskillitMoorman Posted October 10, 2022 Posted October 10, 2022 ***** I was late to this! I had this one in my back pocket saved for the day Rhule was going to fired and most people won't see it now... Quote
Big Turk Posted October 11, 2022 Posted October 11, 2022 (edited) This is hilarious! Skip STILL trying to defend Baker Mayfield...Shannon trashing him, calling him a coach killer, saying he got 5 coaches fired and that he is faking his ankle injury to have people feel sorry for him. Basically called him trash. Edited October 11, 2022 by Big Turk Quote
ghostwriter Posted October 11, 2022 Posted October 11, 2022 I know many fans want CMC, but are there any more players we could poach from? Quote
