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.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
