Time to cut DeAngelo Williams.

[AKPantherFan]

At least Fox sports says so;

In his brief time as general manager of the Carolina Panthers, Dave Gettleman has left no doubt that running an NFL team should be based on business, not emotion.

He even said as much.

"If you're emotional about your decision, you're going to really do something stupid," Gettleman said.

That attitude has helped Gettleman get the Panthers out of salary cap puirgatory from the previous regime by making players restructure their contracts. Or cut them altogether.

For example: Gettleman played hardball with linebacker Jon Beason, who wound up taking a huge pay cut before ultimately getting traded to the Giants.

Gettleman cut the franchise's all-time leading receiver last year in Steve Smith, and now he needs to do the same to DeAngelo Williams, the club's all-time leading rusher.

I love Williams, but it's ridiculous to pay him that much money at this point.

The sky is blue and the grass is green genius.

I don't think theres any doubt that this is waiting on the horizon.

I would be surprised if he is on the team next year.

so tired of watching DeAngelo run into an offensive lineman's backside and immediately fall in any direction besides forward.

every back in the league could duplicate that performance.

bye bye smash and dash.

Yeah, when your 4th best RB has a top 10 league wide cap hit...it is past time

I'm hoping in the coming weeks we see TD, Olsen and CJ extended bringing their cap hits significantly down, D-Will cut, Amini cut, and Hardy brought back.

It's been real D-Will but our time together has run it's course.

He's not wrong

Yes, let's finally start correcting how this team is built only to turn around and immediately use a first round pick on a huge RB coming off a ACL injury

[Kuech the Sneak]

He should be gone this offseason

I think it is just a formality at this point.

In your opinion based off what you have heard, is there any chance he restructures or takes a big pay cut, or is he just done?
