Wow. That’s gotta hurt for Akers. But Foreman of the Panthers beasted out yesterday so Akers was probably not what Panthers needed.

That tells me Akers value is pretty low out there.

Yeah I wasn't expecting them to get much of anything for him. I'd say a round 6 pick would be optimistic but I doubt even that. A trade like this one for CMC made the most sense as it'd basically just be us dumping him to someone else but if that happens for another like Chubb I doubt it effects the compensation otherwise. There just hasn't been enough performance from Akers to make him valuable for a RB with an achilles injury.

Comments earlier in this thread about CMC taking too many hits…

In his limited carries yesterday… I thought on 2 occasions, particularly 1 of them, he got taken down awkwardly.

I would have been excited to get him, but I don’t trust him to hold up.

I think it was his second carry he got hit low and his leg bent at the knee awkwardly and I thought he wasn't going to get up from that... actually said "oh no" when it happened but he hopped right back up. But yeah, he does a lot of elusive type moves that are just asking for a leg injury if he misjudges or doesn't see someone coming from another angle.

I did the same.

I was like “holy geez… 2 carries into his 49’ers career… injured”.

McCaffrey is injury prone so if it happens, I'm going to laugh my ass off at the Whiners for the rest of the season. Trading a shit ton of picks for a hurt QB and RB would be enough to make them never try to out do Snead lol

His problem is he runs too upright and takes a lot of big shots. I noticed that in the Rams game. He doesn't avoid contact.

But he ran that way his first three years too and didn't miss large chunks of time...

Maybe that pounding is cumulative?

I wanted your opinion. I just didn’t see the Rams scoring a TD in that game after the pass to Cooks in the end zone was broken up. Sorry if t was a shitty question.

Guess I took it as a challenge on a game long gone.

What‘s missed about that game is the throttling of Brady by the Rams defense. Sacked, fumbled and picked.

Rams D played a great game as I recall it. With a lead, that D could have made it stick.

Oh well, it’s in the past now.
