CMC, Elite RB who will start!

I don't think CMC is asking for more. I think he wants more money guaranteed. If he gets a serious injury the Niners could cut him and he gets nothing. So if it's just about the guaranteed money I don't blame him. He gets over 350 touches a year from a position that takes alot of abuse and yet none of his money remaining on his contract is guaranteed. So if this CMC's issue, just give him guaranteed money. Niners are never cutting him anyways unless he has some career altering injury.
How do you get more guaranteed money without asking for more?

All NFL contracts (outside of Watsons) have a lot of money that basically isn't guaranteed, usually money that's added to the end of a contract. They can restructure his contract to give him more guaranteed money while also not affecting our cap. It sucks for CMC bc he definitely deserves more, but RB money just isn't great anymore. He can make an argument that he's not just a RB which would be correct. I hope we can get him back in camp quickly and give him an extra 5-6 mil over the next 2 years.

CMC is going to get the money for his final years no matter what so restructuring only speeds up his the process, but it doesn't create more money. To get more, he would need a new contract
Just saw him in some commercial, still can't look at him without seeing him blow that play and fumble the freakin ball!! Fk we needed that TD!!

Dude deserves every penny!
Reigning Offensive Player of the Year Christian McCaffrey once again has reset the RB market, signing a two-year extension with the 49ers, averaging $19 million per year, sources tell ESPN's Adam Schefter.McCaffrey will receive an additional $8 million over what he was scheduled to make in the first two years while adding $24 million in guarantees. The deal was negotiated and confirmed by WME Football.

I think things will work out with Aiyuk but for some reason the Steelers media thinks they're getting Aiyuk or Deebo.
19m / yr is cheap compared to WRs. his agent should list him as WR he'd get $35m. #tactics
