Should Panthers pursue Murray?

[Day_One]

90% likely he wont be with the eagles next year.   Trade stew while you can still get something for him and pick up a guy 3 years younger who runs just as hard?  I think he wants to go back to Dallas though. 

 

Thoughts? (please.. spare us the doom and gloom talk about talking about trades during the season, its a business)

[Hotsauce]

Yeah let's bring in a player that is purposely trying to get cut/traded...

Why would we add a RB when we have 3 backs that are great and another waiting for his chance. 

[t96]

He'll be a Cowboy if he's not an Eagle.

[GhostP.]

Not everyone that has been a day_one fan knows about our stable of backs we have behind J. Stew ..

I'm looking forward to see Cap getting some playing time soon

Just wish we kept Ward

Well since you've instructed us how we're allowed to respond...

No they shouldn't.  Here are reasons why that don't involve player trades mid-season or "doom and gloom"

• He's a malcontent.  What happens when he's getting less red-zone touches than our QB?  Why seek out that sort of likely problem
• I'm pretty sure he's not 3 years younger than Stewart
• Running "just as hard" is not really valid.  Stewart fits our system and runs well within it.  Murray's stellar year in Dallas came as a "give him the ball and run him directly into the ass of a very good offensive line" back.  He didn't have to deal with a lot of the complexity our run game involves due to Cam being Cam.  He also didn't have to deal with a bad OL (which we do not currently have but our OL's performance is not at all what we expected and there's no guarantee he can survive without a good OL if it regresses)

In short: lolnowtf

Bill Murray?  He'd probably be great for team morale.

demarco murray is garbage. His great year with Dallas was a product of an amazing offensive line. 

Also, Murray is 27 ... Stewart is 28. 

makes no sense at all. 

Not that I want us to go out and sign Murray or anything, but he was a very good back long before the Cowboys offensive line got as good as it was/is.  He's definitely not garbage and is a victim of poor blocking and being a poor fit for Philly's running scheme.

ah..ah..ah..ah..ah.ah..ah..ah.........NO

Next question

[hepcat]

No.  But the Panthers will almost certainly draft a RB.

[Moose Hoover]

We don't need a diva running back.

[csx]

No.

[ncsfinest21]

NO NO NO NO. Why put ourselves in a cap situation when we got the guys on our team that we need to sign first

 

[Peppers90 NC]

Stewart is worth way more to us than what we could get in a trade
