RyanC883 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I would trade a 1st for him. It upgrades the RB room in a huge way, and he comes in under cap. 1st and Moss. The 1st is basically a 2nd. We can find a good OL in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. Bean does not waste picks in the late rounds, so losing a 1st is not the travesty it would be for most teams. With CMC this offense is ridiculous. He also may get injured less when he is not counted upon to be the main guy in an offense. 3 1 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Based on what I read from Greg Tompsett of Cover 1, which I linked above -- it would cost the Bills only $600,000 in 2022 money to bring McCaffrey in, and only $1m of his remaining salary is guaranteed -- I would be fully, completely, 100% on board with bringing him in. You either have him for 1 year for a Super Bowl push, or you re-structure and keep the Bills offense unstoppable for years. Remember, Devin Singletary is a free agent after this year. Moss is just a guy. McCaffrey is a game changer. 9 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Boo Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 So nobody wants Barkely, the better RB, but fawn over CMC? Interesting.

Regardless of anyone's thoughts on this player's level of talent, you'll never see ANY team give up a 1st for him. Never. ideally we only have to part with a 2nd or 3rd. For a team like Carolina, they need all the draft capital they can get. If someone offers a 2nd they should take it. Esp. with Moss thrown in.

Will CMC out way our bad run blocking. If the answer is yes then 100%. Yes. and TBH if the answer should be or maybe or it might then its a hard no. the One huge benefit that out ways ALL of this is Coopers practices to get better. He was rated the best route runner coming out in that draft…. Including receivers. Dude is a crazy YAC weapon who can be deployed so many ways. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Look, this isn't a Big Name I Want kind of thing. I want him. Singletary is servicable. And that's the nicest thing I will say about our current RB group. Maybe that's all we need when you have an MVP quarterback. But CMC has the talent level like Shady who can make the most even with an ok O-line. We only need maybe 10-15 handoffs a game, let's make them quality ones. Next year is a problem cap-wise, but we weren't going to pay Singletary any real money and Moss is a liability. Who else do we have? I trust Beane to be able to work salary cap magic if he really wants to get this done. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjt328 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I would like to get some clarification on his contract. This is what Spotrac says: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/carolina-panthers/christian-mccaffrey-21749/ There are some on Twitter stating that we would only be taking on a $600K cap hit in 2022, and then could cut him with no dead cap in 2023. Based on my understanding of contracts, I don't see where that is coming from. His long-term cap hit is probably a bigger deal to the Bills, even more than giving up a high draft pick.

I haven't watched two seconds of Panthers football this year, so I have no idea how McCaffrey looks. He hasn't popped off the highlights (unlike Barkley), but maybe someone in Carolina can shed some light? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
