Fantasy Man: Carolina’s DeAngelo Williams

Cold, Hard Football Facts for August 16, 2010

Did you see DeAngelo Williams Thursday night, in Carolina’s 17-12 loss at Baltimore in the first exhibition contest for both teams?

He got only a handful of touches, but the results were sharp and quick and explosive, and a great portent of things to come – once again – for the Panthers running back.

Williams carried the ball five times, but turned those limited carries into 33 yards – an impressive 6.6 average per attempt against a club that consistently fields the toughest run defense in football (Baltimore was No. 1 last year in run defense, allowing 3.43 YPA).

Fantasy fans – those of you inclined to participate in imaginary fake football – should take notice. So should all fans around the NFL. After all, Williams is poised to do things in 2010 that only two of the elite ball carriers in history have ever accomplished. (Fantasy fans should also check out our new league this year, too.)

To be honest i thought he was a bust after his 1st two seasons. Foster was the #1 back and I liked him except for his fumble problems. DWill has exploded the last two years and I see no reason for him to slow down. Having Stewart only helps him stay healthy longer

I agree he is one of the top backs in the NFL, but I don't see him breaking that record this year. I hope he does because I drafted him in my fantasy league, but Stewart has shown major improvement and will get a bunch of carries; especially in the 2nd half once the defense is tired. He will be the Marion Barber from a couple of years ago that gets the majority of the carries in the 4th qtr., when the defense is tired and will crush people.

I hope Stewart doesnt take away his goaline carries, and Dwill still gets about 15-20 carries a game. Fox has a tendenacy to want to throw when we should run. Just look at the Buffalo game last year, and the Arizona playoff game

      Rasheed Walker for Kris Jenkins Jr.

      No poo tho you might could Jenkins for Legette. They got nothing at WR after the big 2 in Cincy. I don’t think you trade away OL depth. Could get a quality player in cuts. Really that 3-4 end spot what you should be looking for is someone who is stout with long arms and can push back the OL in both the run and pass game for others to make plays…. But we signed Wharton, sometimes I think Evero is a fraud ass nerd who should be an analyst at best.

      you would honestly probably do Monroe Freeling more of a disservice by putting him in a position where is not yet ready to succeed. .we all knew Monroe Freeling struggled at the NFL combine in drills because of technique related issues & would need time to develop  & now all of a sudden before they even put the pads on Monroe Freeling is somehow a starting LT in the NFL ? if he struggled at the NFL scouting combine what do you actually think is going to happen in a live NFL game at LT ? .even our best LT of all time was not ready to start at LT when he was a rookie & he turned out to be a pretty good darn LT by the name of Jordan Gross ...just saying be patient Young Jedis

      well i could go on & on but i will just highlight it by saying big difference trust me from the SEC & NFL.it's honestly like comparing apples & oranges especially when you are talking about a  LT. in the NFL you are going up against the most athletic freaks of nature the world has to offer . .the NFL also has much more exotic & complicated defensive schemes than what they are used to seeing at Georgis &  finally but most importantly you have to learn how to master complex bio mechanics where the body kick steps instantly as a reaction to these world class athletes rush without really making a conscious effort it's more of a learned muscle memory  & it can take thousands upon thousands of reps to master rproper technique for a LT in the NFL especially if you are still very raw like Monroe Freeling is    ...just saying
