We will have two wide backs. Now let's keep them healthy

I think we gave up a bit much for him, but it is what it is. If this is a sign that we are going all in, then sometimes you give up more. BUT, if we are going all in - then now is also the time to give up on Kinlaw and go get DA'RON PAYNE!!!!!

really rams? Really? I mean, you're not wrong… but you just spent three years doing the same thing 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wouldn't call trading a 2nd, 3rd and 4th round pick next year mortgaging the future. It's on e season. What are the chances that they would get a player as good as CMC in any of those rounds. Probably zero. They're going to have at least two 3rd round compensatory picks so that covers the 3rd and the 4th rounder that they traded.
We have multiple 3rd and 4th round picks as comps for losing Saleh and McD. I think we still have two 3rds and two 4ths. We won't have a 2nd.
I just read in the Athletic that the Panthers take a $26M dead cap hit. Seems like they needed enough picks to offset that loss as it's going to hurt their ability to bring on and sign FAs. They're in rebuilt for at least 2 years.

Runceiver. That's more accurate

Ladanian Tomlinson, Marshall Faulk? Barry Sanders maybe? Ok I'm out!!!!

This trade does 3 things in the Bay Area. It gives the 49ers a lift at a time they needed one and it takes the spotlight off of JG for awhile. Now he can just play.
It also puts pressure on the S F Giants to make a big splashy move in the off season.

I know, just messing. I'd take Jonathan Taylor or Nick Chubb for pure runners, but factoring in receiving work it's CMC all day.
Only issue is injury history but that can change for any RB at any time.
