Sooooo.... DeAngelo Williams......

[GotSwag?]

I still dont see the Panthers trading him.

 

Once JStew and/or Barney get back, we will see our running game dominate like this a lot.

I wouldn't call what occurred yesterday a dominating performance by Williams.....

He was consistent. Nothing really impressive. We need that consistent play though which we didn't get last year

 I am a DW fan boy from day one to today.

NO TRADE !

This is the CRA I have come to love..

Deangelo looks great. He hasn't lost a step at all, he's just finally be used like he should. Best of all he's healthy and he looks to be running smarter than before.

 

I'm really excited to get Barner back so we can have a competent core to back him up. Stewart will be icing on the cake for week 7.

Well, it wasn't a dominating performance....

He has run consistent for us and that is a every good thing. Dominating is over the top and not realistic. He did have a lot of yards when the game was basically over. After we went up 24-0 in the 3rd.....he racked up a lot

I guess you can't please everyone.  Sure, we over paid for Deangelo, but there's not a whole lot to be done with that right now.

 

You can look at the stat lines, look at when he accumulated his yards, ect; but what it comes down to is the Panthers won.  He could have run for 200 yards in a loss, and folks would still call for his trade.

 

While you don't need a $100 million tied up in running backs, it's really nice that at 30, Deangelo is still able to play at a high level.  I'll take that.  I like him a lot, he's got a great sense of humor, he's humble, he's a team player.  I don't begrudge him that he got a great deal from our former GM.

 

My apologies for my terrible use of commas.  Its far too hot in here, and there's no AC...

he needs to cut his hair. i liked the 2008 bowl-cut dreads thing he had going on.

[Jmac]

Now if Cam can stop throwing the ball three feet over his head or behind him, he can be even more effective.

i'd say he definitely lost a step. look at his highlights from 2006-2009 and you will see the difference.

 

i'm not saying he's bad, but he isn't as elusive/explosive as he was.

The thing is that Williams ran well because he got enough carries.  From the time he was at Memphis, he is going to get 1 yard, then 2, then 10.  He will never flourish in a system where he gets a handful of carries. He is like a homerun hitter.  He might strike out a lot but hits the big one.  

 

This year Williams is making 5 million in cash and counts 5 million against the cap after the restructure.  You are telling me he is not worth 5 million when the vet minimum for a player with his years in the league is over 1 million.  The 100 million figure is highly incorrect and doesn't factor in the restructures that Gettleman did.

So running for first downs and eating up the clock in the second half isn''t important or failing to do so wasn't a major reason we lost the past 2 weeks????

That cap figure is so incorrect.  Williams counts 5 million against the cap this year and is receiving 5 million.  As far as backs go he is a good value.

I will gladly defer to someone like you who knows.

 

If he can keep it up and keep healthy the whole year for $5 million, dude, that's a deal!  I think everyone was just totaling up Stewarts and Williams contracts plus Tolbert.
