Yeah I seem to remember stew being on a bike on the sidelines more than he was on the field 

Stew's ankle never fully healed...ever.  He could have been all time Panther, but his lower half just kept plaguing him.  Incredible skillset.

OK so I've got the 2nd pick in my fantasy draft this year and it's basically down to CMC, Jonathan Taylor or King Henry as my pick. The league winner had Taylor last year so I'm assuming he's the first pick. It's a PPR league, which is where CMC would feast. But I know I will get absolutely roasted by the rest of the league if I homer out and take him #2 given the injury history (none of that matters and a huge "I told you so" if he can make it a full season of course)

Vhat to do Vhat to do.... A lot rides on that pick. What say you, Huddle homer sages?

I would take him, but that's just me. He's so valuable in a PPR.

Hell, I think even with him missing almost all of last year he was still the 22nd ranked back fantasy wise....something like that.  He's a gamebreaker in FF.

I'm not convinced that CMC could not have played through most of those injuries.  I feel like the team shut him down because they knew we were not competing for anything and RBs have limited time to play at an elite level.

Dont ever draft running backs in the first.  ever.  full stop.  I would go with Kelce simply because there are like 5 tes that contribute consistently in fantasy and having the top dog means you are getting points basically every game.  There are plenty of running backs that emerge every year and the wideout depth is just getting crazier by the year.  At 2 I would go Kelce or Jefferson.

Can blame a lot of things on Rhule, but he is not the one that kept handing the ball off the McCaffrey when games were over that would be his predecessor.

100%. Two years ago he was good to go in early December.

I’m facing the same dilemma. I’ve got the #3 pick and it’ll probably be between CMC or Ekeler. I’ve had CMC the past couple of years and he’s absolutely killed me.

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By CRA · Posted

      my understanding is a big time throw, could be a 5-10 yard slant to Adam Thielen given AT isn't going to separate.

      It's a subjective stat that PFF made up. https://www.pff.com/news/pro-pff-qb-grading-most-effective-tool-there-is
