A league source confirmed that multiple teams have inquired about a possible trade for Pro Bowl running back Christian McCaffrey.
Multiple league sources said the Carolinas would consider trading for a first-round pick and another player without a big salary-cap number.

The top back on the team would be a fourth-round pick. The former Oklahoma State star had 26 catches for 174 yards and a touchdown as a rookies and rushed for 612 yards and five touchdown.
