Question about Stewart


Paa Langfart

Recommended Posts

Given his time missed in the past couple of seasons and now with the possibility of missing this preseason, if he returns for the regular season how well can we expect him to play?  You hear about developing the chemistry of the o line,  chemistry between Cam and his receiver.  How much chemistry will Stew have with the rest of the offense,  assuming he is healthy enough to play?

If he's healthy, it'll be a huge boon, and not just because carries will be split three ways instead of two. He's a great receiving option and is a good enough power back to make defenses think twice about assuming Tolbert or Cam will get all the goal line carries.

If he gets healthy in time for game 1, the real question is how long will he stay healthy? If he pulled a hamstring just by simple training... how will he hold up in actual games?

 

Little bit of luck hopefully this is the end of the injury bug like it has been for TD. If he recovers faster he will get a chance to play in the last 2 pre-season game to get his feet wet. Having Stewart along with the young interior OL will move our run game from average to top.

I don't mean to sound like a broken record, but after his appearance on This Is Gross I came away with a very poor outlook on his hunger to produce in football. He seems more concerned with taking his sweet time to be "100%"

At this rate I think he's good for one half and 35 yds on 6 carriers before he hits IR.

I'm beginning to suspect that these light injures are made up. Let's be clear, I'm not calling him a liar but he always manages to skip camp. Seriously. He's living life and gettin' paid by hardly working. I think it's obvious that he doesn't really care about career stats or progression.

Stewart, unfortunately, is an injury just waiting to happen. Trust me I'm a huge jstew fan. He just cannot stay healthy. In his career, he rarely participates in camp...it's always a foot or ankle problem that keeps him out. BUT --- when healthy is a freaking beast, deceiving speed and quickness with POWER. I hate to admit it, but I'm now convinced that I want jstew to play more than jstew wants to play himself. I expect more from jstew than he expects from himself. We will never see jstew self actualize. Self actualize means "be all you can be". We cannot and should not depend on #28 going forward, he has proven to us time and time again he cannot be counted on to play/contribute. If he surprises us and makes any contribution it will be ver much needed and appreciated but consider it a gift. Our 2014 RB focus is again on deangelo and the lovable Tolbert, I feel good about that. Sprinkle in some barner, if he can make that step, and we should be serviceable.

Bottom line I just don't think jstew's heart or interest is in football...it hasn't been for several years.

Can you honestly blame him for that? After a succession of injuries I'd be hacked off if I'm touch-and-go for a game but still go out and set my recovery back a few months.

No matter how many opinions and pages this thread collects, it's gonna take Stewart hitting the field and the defense to find out what he's got left.

For me, a huge fan has some faith. Count me as a medium size fan.

That wasn't the tone of his response at all.

    • Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?
    • Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
