Needs to be moved to slot and relegated to rb3 carries. Give him all of juices routes he ran and some wr routes. Give him only rb3 outside zone runs because he's not that good inside anyway. this should get him 3-5 carries and game and 3-5 intentional route targets + security blanket checkdowns for Brock.
He's really only average up the middle and gurrendo and Mason are both better up the gut. He's better in space and is smart enough to pick up wr routes.
This still gets him 7-10 touches a game which should be enough to keep him fresh and extend his career.

We all know Kyle will run him into the ground likely he will get 20 carries in week1 be out of service by the end of September. Hoping Kyle evolves in his usage otherwise we will seeing Patrick Taylor as our starting RB by Thanksgiving

He had no big runs last year. And he is frequently stopped on 3rd and 4th and short. He doesnt get as low or hit the hole as hard as Mason or gurrendo.
Not sure we are watching the same games. He's much better in space than between the tackles.
His best plays were the swing passes outside where he could get 1 on 1 with dbs. He frequently had huge gains in those.

Therefore, if it always does, might as well use him while the using is good.

CMC fumbling in the superbowl reminds me of the squirrel on the field scene in Hot Tub Time Machine

Trade him... I know its not a popular choice but, we're not a real contender this year. Get some value for him and build for 2026 and beyond.

Also don't read too much into betting odds, especially when the team you're interested in is one of the most heavily juiced teams out there. There is rarely value in betting on SF to do better than their odds.

.I thought we were just a few players away until we decided to gut the team and it's depth.

Nothing has changed since then really looking at fanduel. Vegas knows super bowls aren't won day 1 of free agency.
