What could we get for CMC?

Hot take, unrealistic, pointless conversation? Yea maybe.

Most people assume we are keeping CMC. There’s been no indication we wouldn’t. For ticket sales alone, I think he’ll be a Panther. I know this isn’t Madden, but anything could happen. 
 

Not advocating we trade CMC at all. Simply curious. What kind of package do you think we could get for him?

He is the one player that will sell tickets next season I don’t think the panthers will trade him 

Giants traded OBJ

Raiders traded Mack.

Football is a team sport and the big money is in long term fan interest, not just short burst ticket sales.

OP has a point. CMC is a HB and those are hard to pay and have a short shelf life.

I wouldn't do it, even if I wouldn't want to run him he's still a top 5 route runner and receiver.

But it all depends on how this team values him vs a rebuild.

With all that's going on now it's probably unwise to move CMC unless it is a trade up to draft our future franchise quarterback.

Despite the impression that a number of slightly deranged fans here are under, no one in the NFL is building around a single running back anymore.

    • Trying to help those 3 folks who hate this move.    In 2025 2.75 million is basically the new "vet" minimum.    They still need #3 RB and returner, draft could/should be the lane for that.    There's no downside to this move, they could cut with little effect and replace with your chosen rookie.   
    • Is it though? Even looking at just this past year, DK played 3 more games and had 81 more yards than Higgins had, but he also did it on less catches, with DK averaging 15 yards per catch and Higgins with 12.5. Yes, Higgins had 10 TDs to DK's 5, but I'd say that was far less about the WRs than the QBs, seeing as Burrow had 43 TDs (and only 9 INTs) to Geno's 21 TDs (and 15 INTs).  Swap the two of them last year and DK puts up better stats with Burrow as his QB than Higgins did, no doubt about it in my mind. DK has also only missed 3 games in his career, Higgins has missed 5 in each of the last 2 seasons. People here complain about our WR speed (and it's many people's biggest issue with T-Mac in the draft), but Higgins ran a 4.59 40 and DK ran a 4.33. DK has only played one more season than Higgins but he has 1,730 yards and 14 TDs more than Higgins, despite playing with the ghost of Russell Wilson and Geno Smith, while Higgins has had Burrow. To me, there is no debate, DK is a significantly better WR than Higgins.  Give him Burrow as his QB during his career and his numbers would dwarf what Higgins has put up.
