he seems to be a bit of a touchdown vulture judging from his highlights. almost all of his TDs are from within the 5 and there were only a handful of big runs in the open field.

As a swift fantasy owner, I would def agree haha

They guy averaged 4.1/carry - fewer big runs makes this more impressive.  The TD's are a nice bonus meaning tough at the GL, but he had 262 carries - that is a starter to pair with Chuba....love it.  For a decent price I take this all day.

What's with the hate for this guy? He had 3 more carries than Miles Sanders 200 less yards but 6 more scores. I'd be happy with adding either of them to our backfield.

I love it personally.  He's one of the best personalities in the league.  His teammates love the dude, tough hard-nosed runner. He was more than just the reliable short yardage back in a league top offense. 

Would be a fan of this.  

Regardless if it's him or Foreman, the draft tees up nicely for an all-around or pass catcher like Gibbs, Spears, Achane, McIntosh, Brown, Abanikanda.  I wouldn't say Charbonnet or Roschon Johnson are out but it's much more in favor of the all around, dual-threat, shiftier types.

I LOVE Williams' story and wouldn't be mad if he's our RB on a fair 2-3 yr deal. Foreman also has a pretty emotional backstory as well. 

I prefer Foreman, but hope we sign the cheaper/best value of Foreman, Williams, Sanders or Mattison. 

I think they will all produce similar numbers here with this OL, with Sanders & Mattison being younger.

If Foreman can do as well as he did last year at a reasonable price tag I would like to keep him. I understand you have to manage the cap, but when we can retain players who have performed well as a Panther I wish we could keep them. I know it is a business and sometimes we don’t know all the facts.

Per this tweet from a source who's personally connected with the RB in question, appears Panthers are part of the mix in aiming for Jamaal Williams of the Lions.

Unsure if this implies that Foreman is gone, or if it's just due dilligence, but interesting to note we're a part of this.

I'd be fine with both Foreman and Williams. With the RB market, we should be able to afford both.

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
