CMC extension was a great move

[WarPanthers89]

We have a future hall of fame caliber player on our team at 23 years old, who just produced over 1k receiving and 1k running the ball with no other weapons to take the coverage off, a terrible turnover machine at QB, and a historically bad defense. 
 

**No way he played his 4th year under that rookie pay scale. Now you lock in your team leader, and prepare to compete next season after we have one full year to rebuild that defense. Our offense is ready to compete right now with one solid Guard. Everyone loves signing Robby Anderson to 10 million a year (who produced just over 750 yards last season and the one before) but some flip out over CMC at 16 million? 
 

Get over it haters...the Panthers made the right decision and we will be in the playoff hunt next year. Now we get the honor of watching him absolutely dominate defenses the next 5 years with our new look offense that actually has other playmakers and innovative play calling.

Are we going to re-sign Moton?

Our offense can compete this year, and with a rookie draft coming up (one which I assume we will draft 80 percent defense) another year of free agents, and another rookie class? Oh absolutely we can. Our team is going to run through the offense.

Not sure why everyone is upset with this move. CMC is obviously way more than “just a RB” and this franchise has no household names left.

Let’s be real, it’s pretty obvious two people upset:

 1. He’s white

2. Cam was let go and cmc wasn’t traded (aka butthurt)

 

 

lol wut?

All I have to say is:

 

Julio Jones makes an average of 22 million a season...

 

CMC impacts a game MORE than Jones does. His 16 million per year is not going to kill this team.

He is a top Running back and Wide receiver in the league

He needs to be next

there's also not going to be nfl this year so he won't have that wear and tear

I think it's stupid to extend a RB.  That being said, he is young and will just be 28 when this deal expires.  By the end of the contract he will be switched to reciever and will be an ok contract.

If no season,  then he will be under contract till 2026.  It's the same amount of wear and tear

a.) depends on if it's an accrued season

b.) you're also following his 2019 campaign with 20 months off instead of 8.

Can't accrue a season without playing games, 6 to be exact.  Unless the NFLPA gets the teams to agree with it, it won't be accrued

Agree 100%.  Christian is the best RB in the game and is still so young.  I love the deal, personally.
