Bottom line. D.Will ain't going nowhere. Double Trouble can not break up. We don't need to trade for a freaking QB or anybody. I wouldn't even trade him to get Suh. Why trade the BEST RB in the NFL, yeah I said BEST, for some unproven player.

That would be the dumbest trade ever! and I mean fuging ever!

It would be one of the worst moves in Franchises history if we trade Dwill. Sorry but Dwill is gonna be a huge star if we keep giving him the ball.

Yep. I hope DeWill doesn't care about the money & stay here because of Stewart and loyalitiy to the team. Rather than wanting too much money, he should look at a Superbowl ring. Otherwise, what if he was to leave for more money & we just won the Superbowl without him? He might regret that & he will stay. Don't play for too much money, DeAngelo: play it for the ring!! :)

I can see it both ways for Deangelo. He could go to another team and take the full load but then he also leaves a complimenting RB and one of the best offensive lines in football. Deangelo does say all the right things and whether he means it or not it seems like he's indicated that he loves being a panther.

However I could see us being worse off if he we sign Williams long term and then have Stewart demanding a trade a few years down the road. Then we have Williams in the latter years of his prime with no true equal on the bench. Then Williams take's on a full load and risks possible injuries. But we do have Mike Goodson and Sutton to help out and they are talented players in their own right.

That was a fantastic post. As some of you may know I love DeAngelo Williams. Just like everybody else who lives in Memphis. It is really cool to see many fans get irate about the topic of trading him. That means many Panther fans have fell in love with him as a player and most importantly as a human. This day, or the day they will eventually trade Deangelo was coming a long time ago. When they drafted Jonathan Stewart with the 14th pick, Deangelo days were numbered. What threw a monkey wrench into the big scheme was Deangelo breaking out last year. Nobody in that orginization knew he could be this good. You don't draft a player who has Bo Jackson or Herchel Walker type gifts(Jonathan Stewart) if you believed that DeAngelo was a feature type of back. Unfortuanately Fox gave up on DeAngelo before he really ever got a chance to shine. I said it before, and I will say it again. The way Deangelo Wiliiams was handled his 2nd year in the league was criminal. It was a total waste of talent. Foster had no business being the workhorse that year. So instead of featuring Williams and seeing what he has to offer they drafted a special talent over him, without truly finding out what DeAngelo could do. The same thing has happened at qb this year. They may have a nice qb in Matt Moore, but he will never get a chance in Carolina, because they stuck with Dellhomme so long that that they don't have a good amount of games to judge Moore on. They will bring in another qb and Moore may possibly be the game manager Fox wanted. What if Moore goes out and play the same way the last 2 games the way he did last week? Then what? John Fox should be fired on that reason alone. But the one thing that many of you guys aren't realizing is that I truly believe that DeAngelo Williams doesn't want to re-sign there.

When he was at Memphis he was very competitive, and never wanted to come out of the game. I know it is eating him alive that he is splitting carries. I know it is eating him alive that he came into camp this year even better than he did last year, and still lost touches/carries to Stewart. DeAngelo says one thing, but his agent comes on a local radio show( http://www.sports56whbq.com/ )in Memphis saying another. When his agent(Jimmy Sexton) was asked earlier this year why DeAngelo didn't sign an extension ala M. Jones-Drew, his comment was something to the effect of "we want to see what his role will be on the team in the future." Lol, that comment told me all I needed to know. He doesn't want to be in Charlotte splitting carries. People assume that he will play next year on the final year of that contract. He will be traded this offseason, and it will be because he wanted to be traded. Stewart is too good to be sitting on the bench splitting carries, and so is DeAngelo.

Don't know the exact number of yards, but Stewart had 14 carries for like 30 something yards last week against Minnesotta. But he was featured and got the ball and eventually he found running lanes and started running over mothaf**ka's. Normally he wouldn't have gotten that amount of carries, but he got better as the game went along. DeAngelo is that same type of back. Although he doesn't use power, he gets better as the game goes if he is featured, and he hast never truly been featured in Carolina. There were games where he could have threatened 300 yards if he was featured... So both of their talents are being wasted. I know it has to bother Stewart to see a back that was drafted out of his class rush for 2000 yards and he has yet to see a 1000 yards. I know it eats at Deangelo he is the only starting back from his draft class that never have never been featured. To know that no matter how well he plays he will never be "the guy".

In Memphis we have a saying, or people who followed DeAngelo's college career. The only person that can stop Deangelo Williams is John Fox. DeAngelo had the same type of season last year Chris Johnson is having this year. The big difference is that he is the guy in Nashville and is being featured, and DeAngelo is just a bridge to Jonathan Stewart. So while many of you Deangelo fans in Charlotte believe that it is sacriligious to think of Deangelo in another uniform, many of his fans here in Memphis always thought that this was his last year in Charlotte anyway. This is Drew Brees and Phillip Rivers. Drew Brees was pretty good in San Diego, but he became a star and a hall of famer elsewhere. San Diego wasn't hurt because they had an all pro waiting in the wings. Deangelo was pretty good In Charlotte the past 2 years, but he hasn't scratched the surface. He will become a monster player on another team. If Marshall Faulk can be traded, so can DeAngelo. Stewart is a 1500 yard back and he is waiting in the wings. He is ready. It is time for him to play ball.

Number28(the biggest Deangelo hater of all) said on this topic that he is looking forward to seeing what Jonathan Stewart can do while carrying the full load. Yea, I kind of feel the same way about DeAngelo Williams... He is a 2000 yard back on another team. DeAngelo has to decide if he wants to be great or just another good back who splits carries. He is saying all the right things publicly, but he wants to be great and he can't do that coming out of the game half of the time and leaving plays on the field. When DeAngelo didn't want to sign a long term deal this offseason that should have told you all you needed to know about his intentions.

If his agent did say that.Then thats very telling IMO.

The talent declined compared to what? Akili Smith? Ryan Leaf? Tommy Maddox? Rick Mirer?

...but you just said the talent at QB has been declining the past six years so what is this just a huge surge coming through?

And yet the first round produces more productive and reliable QBs than any other round, and to expand, more reliable starters in general than any other round, which is partly why the top prospects are drafted there every year.

Maybe I'd take your advice seriously but since you claim Joe Flacco is on the decline, yet he has progressed in virtually every passing category you can imagine this year, and that less than a season into their careers Stafford and Sanchez have proven to be busts (yet you contradict that claim respective to Stafford in your next comment stating that the door is still open for him) and cherry picking the best situation to try to get your point across that top QBs can be found in the later rounds (if you can find one guy [Tom Brady] that worked out in the sixth I can find 100 others that didn't amount to poo) I'm skeptical to the point of examining the argument. I don't know, must be all those Lysergide capsules I'm ingesting that causes me to see these things at a most logical pragmatic level.

Some of you people really really really need to follow up on other players from other teams accurately and do your research before you make blind judgments.

You are really one to talk about cherry picking AND on following up. Keep harping on that Flacco pick you never were for to begin with, Raging Hindsight.

I would be pissed if we traded Williams for a 1st round pick and took a QB with it. The only 1st rounder I would want to trade Williams for would be Suh.

QB is not an important enough position on this team to blow a 1st round pick on. All this team needs is a QB that doesn't make mistakes. The Panthers should NEVER be an air it out team. Why spend a billion dollars on a QB?
