A conversation with DeShaun Foster.

[raz]

he used to go to billingville or billingsley elementary all the time when my mom was the audio visual (librarian) there.  she said he was an absolutely lovely person thru and thru.

Yep he's still one of my favorites to wear the black and blue!

4th best panther runningback all time

From a talent perspective the Panthers have had a really strong stable of running backs. Hard to say which one had the most talent. A lot of them got bit by the injury bug.

Deangelo Williams, Stewart, Deshaun Foster, Biakabatuka, Stephen Davis, Fred Lane. 
 

CMC appears to be a class above these guys but prime Deangelo was the best in the NFL for a time.  And it might just be my childhood memory but Tim B. was a freakishly talented dude who caught fumblitis and a knee injury.

Prime Deangelo had one great year and two other good years, one of which wasn't on the Panthers.

Would have had better years if he didn’t have to split carries.

lol foster was nowhere near as good as Stewart or DW. Foster has more career fumbles than TDs. He was serviceable. No doubt some memorable runs though - Philly, NE, Indianapolis.

Maybe. But after he got paid he got fat and complacent and didn't do that hot until we cut him and he lost weight for the Steelers.

No he wasn't but he might have been. I just meant from a talent stand point. Foster started losing speed in his second and 3rd season after injury. First it was a knee and then ankle, then he was never the same.
