Panthers Listening To Trade Offers For Christian McCaffrey
3 years agoThe Carolina Panthers have been receiving trade offers for star running back Christian McCaffrey, according to ESPN's David Newton. The report from Newton also states that the Panthers would consider moving the former Stanford star if both a first rounder and a player without a high salary cap number were on the table. Newton clarifies in his report that the Panthers aren't specifically shopping McCaffrey. They are just listening to what's available. McCaffrey was the consensus first round pick in all fantasy leagues last fall, but he struggled to stay on the field last year and wound up playing just seven games while rushing for 442 yards and adding 343 receiving yards. If the Panthers were to trade McCaffrey, Chuba Hubbard would be in line for the team's lead back role, though we'd likely see the Panthers add some backfield depth prior to training camp.
