I keep seeing Huddlers speculating on draft picks or roster positions for year 2017 with Jonathan Stewart still on the roster in Carolina filling a role. 

2017 will be the first year the Panthers could gain measurable relief from the 9.5 Million Dollar cap number Hurney left us with. 

So in your opinion, will JStew be a Panther next year?

My gut says yes but I would be thrilled if we got a young RB or two in his mold.

Releasing him seems like a Gettleman move, especially if we draft a back or some Uglies. Of course, it's quite possible that Stewart will be successful somewhere else for another one or two years and the Huddle will complain about it. Par for the course.

Two things would have to happen for him to not be a Panther. We'd need to draft a HB in the first round or two with a plan of him being the workhorse back. And we'd need to not trust any HB behind him as a CoP or in case of injury. I think it's unlikely both those things happen as the second would require we sign a HB in FA that's much cheaper than Stew and is trustworthy since what we have now wouldn't cut it. And even if those two things happened I could still see Stew staying, with or without a pay cut.

If CAP can't be trusted by year 3 cut his arse too.  Don't disagree they need someone they can trust, but Stew's cap hit is just too much to be a glorified baby sitter.  Hopefully a CJ level pay cut if he stays.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
