FO says not entertaining D-Will, but...


top dawg

Recommended Posts

I don't really believe our FO would pull the trigger either, but you never know. Ultimately, I brought it up for the main purpose of interesting discussion. I believe that D-Will is a beast, and I would have thought that after last season J-Stew would have put any arguments about his talent, toughness, and status as a top back (even if you only believe he is a top-back-in-waiting) to bed. That argument is dead, rotten and forgotten. Stew is a beast. With Williams' coming contract situation on the horizon, I just don't know how realistic it is to believe that we will keep them both, and, that being said, I would decide to go with youth (not saying that Williams is ancient). Can we lock both these guys up until a time that we can make a realistic run to the big Dance? The probable answer makes me a bit anxious.

In regards to Goodson, I could easily argue that he has been as productive as some backs in the league who are much better well known or hyped. His minutes have been relatively few, but very productive. I don't see how anyone couldn't see him being an able back-up, and Sutton is just added insurance to support that notion, because even he helped move the chains last year.

Ultimately, I will be good either way. I just started watering at the mouth a little over another rusher like Clay Matthews, but the Packers probably wouldn't deal him. But I do believe that they will make a move before the deadline, and D-Will would be invaluable to them going forward (and would make Ryan Grant expendable). Their dreams of a championship isn't going to happen this year without a top back, so this may make them desperate enough to consider doing things they wouldn't normally do, and we all know that they could do worse than Williams, and not a whole lot better. To me he's worth a Clay Matthews and a second or third, particularly when I look through their eyes.

No way in HELL the Packers will deal Clay Matthews...c'mon guys...

We'll get a 2nd rounder at best probably. Since this season is all about business anyway, dealing D-Will would be the best bet while he is still a hot commodity.

The fan in me would HATE that move just for the sheer fact of how I feel about D-Will though...

It's very amusing that Panthers fans cite Stewarts injury history and the fact that it would hurt our depth as reasons to not trade Williams, then turn right around and suggest that IF we trade a back it should be Stewart, even though between the two Williams is the one who has ACTUALLY missed games in his career. So basically people don't have a problem with us hurting our depth at rb to help the team, just as long as we dont trade their favorite rb between the two. Fans.

Finally! I totally agree with you! Stewart has never missed a game, Williams has... So what he misses offseason training and preseason... Who had more yards last year? With around the same amount of carries... He can last a full season because they'll use Goodson or Sutton to split the carries.

I love how people use the "were a run 1st team" as an excuse not to trade one of our RB's. Do any of you honestly think Fox will be the HC next year? I do however think that the other side of this argument is also flawed. How much do you honestly beleive a 27 yo RB will fetch in a trade? We would be lucky to get a 2nd.

I would trade him for a 1st because it would allow the new HC to have 2 1st with which to start building the team in his image. Otherwise Dwill is far more valuable to us. Either way don't see him getting traded. Stewart is even more unlikely to be traded due to his injury history.

We screwed the pouch drafting him in the 1st to begin with. RB's can be found all over the Draft. While Stewart probably has as much talent as anyone of them he also tends to be oft injured.
