look as a dumb fan id think it's cool to have CMC, looking at it logically our RBs aren't bad at all. We played with a JV defense last week and got down 14 quick. Running game is gone. We got a QB that doesn't allow for light boxes and plays out of the gun all game. It hurts the run game regardless of who's back there…CMC is much much better as a pass catcher and route runner so that's valuable. That also takes targets away from our other playmakers.

The fact that we outbid the Rams for him makes this trade all the sweeter.
Half this fanbase complaining about how Lynch sits on his hands and lets the Rams make "ballsy" move after "ballsy" move because they "want to win."
Well we just did so ourselves and blocked the Rams in the process. Happy?
And you know for a fact fans complaining about this move would be complaining twice as hard if the Rams got him lol
This x infinity
We blocked the Rams just like what they did to us last year with Stafford.
Do all you realize that if we didn't give up that draft capital the Rams would have him right now?
MOST IMPORTANTLY, since the Rams don't have good pass protection, all Stafford would have to do is dump it off to McCaffrey 10 or 15 times per game and our pass rush would be neutralized a lot more. It would've been worth two or three second round picks to cock block them from that. Think about that before claiming we gave up too much. This guy is a once in a decade and type of player
