I think we should remind ourselves that we have the best RB's in football and the best RB core in the game!! We haven't drooled over them in a long while!:D:D

1. Deangelo Williams

2. Jonathan Stewart

3-32. EVERYONE ELSE

Yes...And I think we souldnt be letting any of these 2 guys go. They are the heart of our offense for sure.

Running backs are only as good as your OL. Our line has been in steady decline (just short of free-fall) since 2008.

In 2009 and 2010 they were able to improve dramatically at the end of the season. But they're getting older and we need a group who can put it together for the entire regular season (and playoffs, hopefully).

I never thought I would say this, but we should consider trading one of them IF we can get a solid QB. If we can't, then keep them. We can't compete in our conference with Matt Ryan and Drew Brees.

I'm confident that Rivera's schemes will handle those two. Its Freeman who scares me.

I think the relationship is about mutual. Deangelo wouldn't have had all those long runs in 08 if it wasn't for him being a badass. Our line isn't that old at all. Gross is the only one in his 30's if I'm not mistaken. Wharton will last a good while longer. We just need to shore up RG and draft or sign a tackle with some potential so that we can groom him in the event one of the tackle's goes down.

Schwartz can be a good RG and a suitable tackle. What we really need is for Duke Robinson to emerge and maul people with Otah. That will solve a lot of depth problems.

      Canales and Mike White

      I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks.
