Same here, I low key wanted him so bad but thought no way we would give up the draft capital to get him, glad I was wrong, also still can't believe we have Javon Hargrave too.

Lol I didn't pay attention to this thread when we made the trade but idk how anyone was upset. We traded a handful of picks for a player we KNEW was perfect for our system. Lol

i hope whoever was upset about this trade was equally or more upset about us trading more valuable picks for a player we had no idea if it was a fit or not. Lol
fun fact the 4 games CMC was with Jimmy our offense was 2nd in EPA per play, 2nd in yards per attempt, 2nd in offensive DVOA.

dude was the rocker star of our offense last yr and it was mainly because of the pass catching chops/miss matches he brought to the table there.

I'm praying Kyle doesn't run him into the ground. Thoughts on a good number or touches per game for him?

I didn't want to trade for him if it was about improving the running game. We didn't have issues there imo. What he brought as a pass catcher and the plays kyle could dial up from that stand point was what interested me.

I was more interested in him too, as an outlet and short game receiver. I remember Kyle spending all off season building an offense around Jerick McKinnon only to lose him permanently. It would have been huge for Kyle and Jimmy. We only got a snippet of it last year.
How many more elite seasons do you guys think we can get out of CMC?

Yeah I think CMC is even better than McKinnon as a WE too. But yeah that's totally why he got him.

I don't even hate his cap hit. Would you rather pay Corey Davis/Curtis Samuel or CMC? They're making the same cash this yr.

As a pass catcher..3 or 4. That's his bread and butter. Dude could be a slot WR.

Fully agreed.

He's so damn good that any coach will have to battle the urge of overusing him

I bet later in his career he will move to the slot and get a few carries a game

I was working graves and had no phone service. Around 1 am or so I decided to google him on my work computer, expecting to see Bills or Rams or something. I got so pumped by myself with nobody to celebrate with lol
I need some more damn CMC action. Christian Moves Chains..LFGGGGGGG
