Procus Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 Glad the Eagles didn't bring him here. https://www.nfl.com/news/panthers-trading-rb-christian-mccaffrey-to-49ers-in-exchange-for-host-of-draft-p Christian McCaffrey to 49ers in exchange for host of draft picks Published: Oct 20, 2022 Christian McCaffrey is heading back to the Bay Area. The San Francisco 49ers are acquiring the dynamic dual-threat running back from the Carolina Panthers in exchange for a host of draft picks, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported late Thursday night. In exchange for McCaffrey, the Panthers will receive a 2023 NFL Draft second-round pick, a 2023 third-rounder, a 2023 fourth-rounder and a 2024 fifth-round pick. The Panthers were also in deep talks with the Los Angeles Rams, Rapoport added. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawkins4prez Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 That's gonna be nasty to stop with Deebo, McCaffrey and Aiyuk all doing many of the same things in different directions. This is a dink n dunk offense Jimmy G can handle and that D might be their best ever when it gets healthy again. These guys have to be the most serious threat to Philly in the NFC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK_EaglesFan89 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 That's a lot of picks for a RB who's been hurt... Don't get me wrong he's a very very good player but that's a lot to give up. I'm not sure that's a good move for the Niners really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JournalistMic Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 Which is probably why if any feelers went out, an indication as to why the Eagles didn't pursue acquiring him. As good as he is it's just better to take a chance in the 2nd round draft with an HB in the upcoming draft. That being said Miles Sanders is freaking having a year this season, of course he is trying to get paid. I am worried about Miles Sanders getting injured though as he tends to do each season.

Eagles like to use a RB by committee. Better for the team to acquire a bruiser if you ask me - it's the missing piece for this team. Josh Jacobs would like mighty good wearing Midnight Green, and with his Hurts - 'Bama connection, maybe the Eagles have an inside track. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that is going to be potent for the 3 healthy games McCaffery gives them. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been bridesmaids for a few years now and they saw how the Rams went all in and got their ring. When your window is open because of defense, that window closes much faster than if you have the Elite Qb. McCaffrey puts even less pressure on Jimmy G to produce points he just has to dump off all day. I like the move for a team that should be going for broke.

LacesOut Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 Yeah I keep forgetting that the 49ers were in the NFCCG last season. So here is an opportunity to add to the Offense. Too many picks to give up though, for my blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikepargo Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 They're in "Win Now Mode." They must be. They're currently looking at almost no draft next year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently a good chunk of the compensation provided to the Panthers was awarded to Frisco by the NFL in the first place on account of losing assistants to head coaching positions with other teams. The pundits I saw trying to explain how the Niners were awarded these picks had difficulty explaining the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have two picks at the end of the 3rd, one in the 5th, and two in the 7th. That's not much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 49ers will be losing lots of players and will try to replace them with a Rams style F DEM PICKS draft. Never go F DEM PICKS. The Rams are hot garbage now.

The toughest game of the draw was a flawed Tampa that they have historically owned. They barely escaped. Then they beat frisco in a classic "can't beat same team thrice" scenario and then the SB against Cinderella Cincy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
