2010 Season Outlook

The fact that D-Willy finished "only" 13th among fantasy rushers last year -- a season after being fantasy football's MVP -- is misleading. He barely played in the final five games of 2009, and had seven touchdowns in eight games before getting shut out in the season's second half. We love the guy's explosiveness and particularly his vision, which may be the best of any NFL running back. He's a great player. The fact is, though, that Jonathan Stewart stole double-digit carries even when Williams was healthy, and was a fantasy superstar while Williams sat late. We're assuming Carolina will split carries relatively evenly between the two in '10, which will hurt the value of each. Williams is coming off ankle surgery and is headed toward a contract year in '11, and if the Panthers struggle, there's a chance they could deal him. It's likelier that both guys exceed 1,000 yards rushing and split between 15 and 20 scores.

How did you guys not know there were any problems with his ankle when he missed a couple of games last season because of it?

Maybe because it didn't seem like an issue that would carry over into this year (thats why I didn't remember it).

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
