Headline Tag: J-Stew Wants to Remain a Panther


Recommended Posts

I say that we sign Stew to a 4 year deal. That way, his contract comes due the same year as DeAngelo's and Cam's (rookie) contracts expire.

Pay Cam. Pay Stewart, again. Let Williams walk. All in 2016.

Williams will be cut before then

Williams will be a 33 yr old RB in 2016 they can find cheaper and better before then for his role.

Yeah, but a 33 year old running back who has been splitting carries for most of his career is probably about as fresh as a 30 year old one. Thirty is the age most people consider to be when backs lose a step. Figure it'll be a little bit longer with DeAngelo and 2016 when his contract is up might be the perfect time to let him go.

I think most teams didn't know that they essentially borrowed against the 2014 cap to keep this years cap from going down. By the time they let the teams know Hurney had already signed Williams. I am not sure it was his fault. Seems we are still finding out things about the CBA which are just now bring explained.

30 is 30. Age is age.

And again Williams was used more heading into the league than probably any RB in the NFL. He had an absurd college workload on him.

No doubt. Yes he split carries in the pro's so far, but the man leads the NCAA D1 in all purpose yardage. He probably had close to double the mileage on him than most RB's coming out.

I did not know he held that record. That's impressive.

I still think he'll have more left in the tank once he hits 30. It might just be homerism and generally liking DeAngelo as a person. I guess we'll just have to wait and see though.

Yeah that is a big deal, he was very successful and a true workhorse at Memphis. Just to be accurate I think some small school guys may have more yards, but for D1 "big boy" ball he is the record holder.
