Stew is a starter, but we would be unlikely to get his value in draft picks, and I doubt we'd get back what we used on him.

I do think that if D-Will stays healthy and Sutton continues to develop, we could part with him for the right deal, but I am glad we have him for now.

100 yards against a defense that hasnt given up a 100 yard day in 36 games (Nov. 07). I told people on this board STOP f**kING undervaluing Stew because you love D Will so much. The kid is a beast for us and without him our RB core is not nearly as potent.

Yep. Why should some folks hate on a guy who is just as good as DeWill? Looking at how Stewart did when DeWill got hurt early in the first half, we should be thankful Fox & Hurney made the right decision with getting Stewart. While I think Sutton would do ok, but Stewart is the one who can do it all that & more. If we never got Stewart, I don't think Sutton & Goodson could do enough to help us score and win compare to Double Trouble. We love Double Trouble & we hope they will be here for several more years. :sifone:

Trading a great player isn't necessarily a bad idea, if you can get good value in return and if you have another great player at his position (D-Will). The thing is, Stewart has been dynamite for us this year when D-Will has gone down to injury. RB's get dinged up all the time, and I think it's going to be to our benefit to keep the two of them here as long as possible.

I agree 110%. I've loved this kid since we drafted him and while he's not as good as DeAngelo he gives us so much flexibility in being able to keep our RB corps fresh during a game. But tonight he showed he can carry the load too, and he really did wear down that defensive line to the point that it just couldn't keep up with our patchwork OL.

leave the strengths alone unless you want to make them stronger. build around it. make everything else around it better. the team needs to find balance but it doesn't need to happen at the expense of the best part of it. find players that will help make the passing game every bit as good/dangerous as the running game.

We will lose him in free agency unless we decide to trade DWill and keep him long term.

Bottom line is one of them won't be a Panther soon come 2011. I for one would rather have something for him in return.

If you think they will both stay Panthers indefinitely....wake up.

Frank and Moose were discussing today how the Patriots are great at trading veterans for draft picks. They solve their weaknesses by drafting lots of players and playing the odds. One of them said trade Steve Smith but that just doesn't make sense given the chemistry between him and Newton.

Now that our defense is so bad and our Offense is great it may be time to consider it again.

Even if we get a 3rd or 4th for Stewart we may need to consider it. Could we even get a 2nd??

HOWEVER given Hurney's inability to find talent in the 3rd and 4th rounds maybe not.

      He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
