Now it's 2-4 weeks with Stewart

I just saw his interview, and while I'm frustrated with the whole thing, he did at least seem to be a little bummed out about the situation and still kept mentioning regardless of the hamstring injury (which he stated he's never had one before) he's still feels the best in a long time now that his ankles are finally fixed.

 

I wouldn't take the 2-4 weeks thing to heart.  He said in the same sentence he doesn't even know how long a the recovery on a hamstring injury is since he's never had one, he was just guessing and throwing numbers out there when asked.  He sounded confident that he's going to be ready by week 1.  It could all be BS, but just gonna try to keep an optimistic outlook about it.

 

The contract sucks, just hope for the best.  If he's really 100% this season, which he hasn't been in a long ass time, along with our beefed up interior o-line the run game could see a bit of a resurgence this year.

 

side note: apparently Mike Tolbert has lost like 15 lbs this offseason.  Not sure how I feel about that.  Says he can "run for days" now though.

I feel the weight lost might be a good thing for him, he still has the power & mass but will be able to hit gaps faster. IMO Tolbert usage will be a lot more this year in goal line and short yardage while Cam still recovers in the 1st quarter of the season. While Stewart will able to handle the 1-3 downs for us. This years run game is going to take a major leap and push us to the top.

Ive said it before, and I will say it again, Jstew is a waste of a roster spot and not trying to trade this guy was a mistake.

 

Jesus Christ how many times do we have to have this discussion?

 

The way his contract is structured makes it IMPOSSIBLE to trade or cut him without incurring massive dead money charges on the cap this year, charges we CANNOT afford.
