The San Francisco 49ers were traded for the Carolina Panthers who brought Christian McCaffrey back in for a great late night movie.
Christian McCaffrey was undoubtedly the best player available on the market before the NFL trade deadline. Rather than wait and find a suitor over the next few weeks, the Panthers found one—and more importantly the return of their admiration—in the San Francisco 49ers.
By trading for McCaffrey, the 49 players have now added elite return to their attack. Tre Lance will miss the season, but Kyle Shanahan’s squad still has an outstanding defense and a solid offensive streak. Jimmy Garoppolo is a solid game manager, and he can make a throw or two when the situation calls for it.
McCaffrey, however, will become the hub of their offense.
