Official re-sign Dwill thread


Lumps

Recommended Posts

The FO needs to resign this badass. He is in the prime of his career with low mileage and a seemingly desire to want to stay paired up with Jstew, now this is something special. As an organization, business wise and fan wise it is imperative to keep that going on. I hope JR realizes this. Especially with Smitty getting old this team needs to keep it's few stars.

Dwill can catch, run and is a perfect all-round back. Don't give me crap about needing something from a tag and trade like more picks or players, we have plenty of trading ammo in the RBs, LBs and elsewhere but I think it is essential to keep double trouble at least for another 4 years. They are young, they are competitive. Dwill is a high character guy who has the skills to back it up and it would be stupid to let him get away.

I say sign him and use the tag somewhere else if need be. No one can say he wouldn't be worth his money. JR, put that PSL money to good use! Pay him!

If he wants a reasonible contract why not sign him.WE are in a league that requires 2 or 3 rbs.I may be wrong but I see teams leaning torwards multiple rbs versus one super star.Defenses have learned how to slow down the running game if they want to.The stock of rbs in general is declining in my opinion.As Riveria noted if they give you the pass you have to be able to pass and the same is true for running the ball.Fox ball is a dying stadegy.

We will not be spending a lot of money to keep Deangelo Williams when we have Stewart and Goodson. I like the guy as much as anyone but its just not going to happen...it wouldn't be smart financially. Especially considering he probably has 4 good years left and we are rebuilding.

I agree that we want spend a fortune but I have no reason to believe a deal will not be worked out.Goodson is not an every down back and we need 2 backs if not 3.I would like to see us stay with what we have a rb.No need to screw that up too.

Contracts and paying players are where the rubber meets the road in the NFL when it comes to ownership and management philosophies.

Case #1: Peyton Manning is about to become the highest paid player in the history of the NFL as he and the Colts are talking right now. CBA be damned, the Colts are wanting to make this happen regardless of what the new salary cap may look like.

Case #2: Jerry Richardson refuses to negotiate, sign or otherwise deal with his team until a new CBA is in place. He is more than willing to watch one UFA after another decide they'll play elsewhere rather than pay the man for what he can bring to the table.

    • I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

    • We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
