Can we dispense with the notion

[TN05]

that we don't need and/or should trade Jonathan Stewart? This guy, aside from Cam and Olsen, is perhaps the most important guy in our offense. Few runners in the league are as powerful as he is, and he is extremely reliable in short-yardage situations. I like Cameron Artis-Payne - a lot - but the burst Stewart has is not something you can get from any back in the league.

No one with a lick of sense has suggested as much. Stew is a 30 year old injury prone RB. As such, his trade value is essentially zero.

That has zero impact on his trade value and it's exactly why it would be an incredibly dumb idea to take whatever peanuts he'd bring in a potential trade.

I'll buy. He is, in my opinion, the most powerful back in the league. When he is healthy, he is nearly unstoppable. JS is so close to breaking every time he touches the ball his power and speed combo is the best I've seen, though I have only ever been a Panthers fan. 

 

I'll take him (healthy) over anyone else in the league.

The Panthers are a different team when J Stew is healthy, I hope we can extend his career by adding another capable RB alongside him

[ThPantherFan]

All, you all, make good sense.

Packers may trade for him but obviously we aren't trading him and he wouldn't yield more than a late day 3 pick.

[PantherPhann89]

No we should not trade Stew but we should get his replacement now!

We had the ultimate chance this past draft to do that.

[Davidson Deac II]

he is actually not as injury prone as some people think.  He plays an injury prone position, but he doesn't miss that many games, at least in comparison to most of the backs in the league.

We sort of man handled AZ in the trenches, so Stew looked especially good out there. It's going to be rough when he retires or leaves.

I have a signed pic of Stew. 

Edit. I also made stew today. Delish.

Alright, I'll bite. What is a pic Stew? And who signed it? Inquiring minds and all.
