Is re-signing RB DeAngelo Williams smart move for the Carolina Panthers?

I'm sorry but DeAngelo is soft. A foot sprain? Are you kidding me? A foot sprain?

Look, I'm as big of a Carolina fan as anyone here but what is this guy thinking? I agree that this might be a good chance for J-Stewart to get rolling but D'Angelo certainly isn't rolling either, and he hasn't done much for awhile now. Yes, his 2008 season (the 2nd half of it was very, very good), but last year he wasn't dominant and then he got hurt and barley played for the final 5 games--now he's out with a foot sprain. Weird how Brett Favre plays with a broken ankle in Minnesota and our #1 RB skips the game and misses the flight due to a "foot sprain".

I have no clue why we didn't trade him before the deadline, everyone see's what Stewart can do when he gets the full share to himself and it probably helps having all the carries getting into a groove.

In my opinion DeAngelo is not only soft he's close to be very over-rated in my estimation. He's not a top-tier #1 RB, he's had a lot more bad games (ie costing us the game vs. New Olreans) than good games.

I'm not saying, just sayin

You should check out the YPC before you speak like you know what you're talking about. Here, I'll help you:

Williams has had the highest YPC ever since Stewart has arrived. Btw, Stewart hasn't looked good this year at all. 3 yards a carry? At least Williams has a little over 4.

It's laughable you are comparing Favre's injury to Williams'. A RB needs both ankles to be healthy in order to make cuts. A QB just needs his feet and ankles to be good enough so he can move around the poket.

Last year he played in 13 games, had 1117 yards, 5.2 YPC, and 7 TDs. Besides the touchdowns, his numbers are pretty close to what he did in 2008. So his season last year was just as good as his 08 season.

DeAngelo Williams is not a top-tier RB, I'm sorry. But when your 1-5 and your starting #1 RB has 1 TD and is averaging 4.1 yards per/carry.....your not very good.

The guy has 1 rushing TD in his last 14 games (FOURTEEN GAMES), he hasn't run for 100 yards in a single game since week 11 (in 2009). He's now missed his first game in 2010 after barley playing the final 5 in '09.

I'm sorry but what am I missing and what are you seeing, besides living off his monster 2008 season. I know a few other RB's who were good 2 years ago---what separates DeAngelo besides your perception?

Seriously, I want to know, what has this guy done in the last year?

    • I mean we had more of a defensive need in the 2025 draft than we may in the 2026 draft(so far). But we took a TE. We did it in the 5th round. Also he has overwhelmingly been our best TE to date. He and the FA pickup. I think you just have an extremely skewed view of TE's in the NFL. I would implore you to take a look at some draft history, depth charts and career progressions of a lot of those players. You are going to see ample examples of lower round guys being drafted and then immediately starting at TE. The reason it isn't rare is that there aren't many TE's taken in the 1st at all.  It's the same with other positions. You think that it's impossible to find a C outside the 1st? Well....most of them aren't 1st rounders because they rarely get taken there. How about OG? The NFL is mostly non-1st round OG's and the elite tier is almost all not former 1st round OG's. How about RB's? Pretty similar right? That's not just numbers, it's positional value historically. High value positions litter the first round. It's always been that way.
    • The "mob" was into a lot of things back in the day. They were fixing fights mostly but branched out into illegal gambling and booze during prohibition. Points shaving was mostly attributed to the coaches or players themselves but I'm sure the mob had a hand in it themselves. But they were making more money in the drug market than they could with gambling by the 1980s and gambling was getting legalized.
