The went full speed ahead on their rebuild with the trade of to the . A team in desperate need of stockpiling draft picks, the Panthers received a 2023 second-round pick, 2023 third-round pick, 2023 fourth-round pick, and a 2024 fifth-round pick from the San Francisco 49ers to take McCaffrey off their hands.Even more important, the Panthers got the remaining four seasons and $36.89 million on McCaffrey's contract off the books. , the Panthers will have just $1,737,111 available on their salary cap for 2023 as a result of the $18,352,250 in dead money from McCaffrey's contract (from his signing bonus). Carolina can easily clear up some cap space with a rebuilding roster and find a suitable replacement for McCaffrey for 2023 and beyond (plus the salary cap may increase in 2023 as well).The Panthers could wait until 2024 to get a running back with $143,162,836 in salary cap space available, but it will be hard to pa s up on a running back in the stacked free agent cla s this offseason. Here's a look at who's available for Carolina come March, as well as in the 2023 . NYG RB #26 Att119Yds616TD4FL0 Barkley's 2022 resurgence Evgenii Dadonov Women Jersey with the has made the 25-year old the prize of this free agent cla s. He leads the in carries (119) while having 616 rushing yards and four touchdowns (5.2 yards per carry). Barkley also leads the league in touches (140) and yards from scrimmage (771). A dual threat out of the backfield, Barkley's value should significantly increase as the year unfolds. CLE RB #27 Att61Yds259TD2FL0 Hunt has been a backup to since arriving with the , but he's been incredibly productive in the No. 2 role. He's ama sed 1,665 rushing yards (4.4 yards per carry) and 15 rushing touchdowns since playing his first game for Cleveland in 2019 while having 846 receiving yards and seven touchdowns (2,511 yards from scrimmage, 22 touchdowns).Hunt led the NFL in rushing his rookie season (2017) and he 27-year-old is looking for a starting role again. PHI RB #26 Att105Yds485TD4FL0 Sanders is having his best year with the , with 105 carries for 485 yards and four touchdowns (4.6 yards per carry) through six games. His receiving numbers aren't great (11 catches, 42 yards), but Sanders is constantly among the league leaders in yards per touch (5.5 career average trails only Nick Chubb, , and among players with 700 touches since 2019).The 25-year old has a value that is expected to increase as the year goes on. SEA RB #20 Att57Yds346TD2FL0 Penny has been Frank Vatrano Men Jersey the most productive running back since he became the starter in December of the 2021 season. Penny finished his 2021 season with 119 carries for 749 yards and six touchdowns -- leading the NFL with 6.3 yards per carry. In the final five games, Penny had 92 carries for 671 yards and six touchdowns -- an incredible 7.3 yards per carry.In 2022, Penny had 57 Mike Hoffman Men Jersey carries for 346 yards and two touchdowns (6.1 yards per carry) before going down with a fractured tibia -- and being lost for the season. In Penny's last 10 games, he has 149 carries for 1,017 yards and eight touchdowns -- an astonishing 6.8 yards per carry. When Penny actually plays, he's incredibly productive. The 26-year-old back just has to stay healthy. CHI RB #32 Att62Yds246TD1FL0 The 25-year old has been a victim of the offensive ineptitude, yet still has put up 3,054 rushing yards and 22 rushing touchdowns in his 49 career games. The 3.9 yards per carry hurts Montgomery, who has fallen out of favor in Chicago as a result of the explosivene s of .Montgomery has 62 carries for 246 yards and two touchdowns in five games (4.0 yards per carry). Interesting to think what he could do in another offense. LV RB #28 Att91Yds490TD3FL0 Jacobs should be a good get in this free agent cla s, especially since the are using his skill set wisely this year. Jacobs has 91 carries for 490 yards and three touchdowns on the season, averaging a career-high 5.4 yards per carry.The more carries Jacobs gets, the more productive he is. The 24-year-old is one of the NFL's most productive runners in 2022, as his 98 rushing yards per game is also a career high. BUF RB #26 Att57Yds256TD0FL1 Singletary may be in a running back-by-committee situation, but he's productive for the when he actually gets the ball. He has 57 carries for 256 yards and zero touchdowns on the year (4.5 yards per carry), averaging a career-low 42.7 yards per game. While the yards per carry is a career low, the yards per touch is a career high. Singletary has 423 yards from scrimmage and 5.4 yards per touch this year. He's a dual threat out of the backfield. NE RB #37 Att57Yds257TD3FL0 Harris may eventually be unseated by with the , but he has 18 rushing touchdowns over the last two years. He has 57 carries for 257 yards and three touchdowns on the year (4.5 yards per carry), one year after rushing for 929 yards and 15 touchdowns (4.6 yards per carry).The 25-year-old is set to be a featured back again, either for New England or another team. DAL RB #20 Att55Yds292TD2FL0 Pollard has been a better running back than over the past several years, yet hasn't been given an opportunity to be a featured back given Elliott's big contract. Pollard has 1,901 rushing yards and has averaged 5.1 yards per carry in his career, while also having Michael Matheson Men Jersey 91 catches for 716 yards and two touchdowns.Pollard has averaged 5.7 yards per touch since entering the league. A No. 1 running back job is certainly on the table. NYJ RB #23 Att81Yds340TD3FL0 Robinson has been a productive player in the league since signing with the as an undrafted free agent in 2020. He has 2,177 rushing yards and 18 rushing touchdowns over the last three years, averaging 4.5 yards per carry. Robinson has 81 carries for 340 yards and three touchdowns this season, averaging a career-low 4.2 yards per carry. He can be a bell-cow option in a good offense going forward. DET Serron Noel Women Jersey RB #30 Att77Yds332TD6FL0 Williams has been a touchdown machine for the in 2022 as the No. 2 running back behind . He has 332 rushing yards and six touchdowns, averaging 4.3 yards per carry. Not much of a receiving threat out of the backfield, Williams is an excellent complimentary back.The 27-year-old has put up 933 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns (4.1 yards per carry) over the last two seasons. Melvin Gordon RB Att55Yds201TD1FL2 Gordon is one of the most productive touchdown runners in the NFL, rushing for eight-plus touchdowns in each of the last six seasons. This season hasn't been great for Gordon, who has 55 carries for 201 yards and just one touchdown (3.7 yards per carry) in six games.The 29-year-old seems to have fallen out of favor in the ' inept offense. MIA RB #31 Att71Yds309TD1FL0 A career 5.4 ya
