1st and 3rd for Dwill


Lumps

Recommended Posts

I would have given it to Johnson, who better have a first round tender.

The Carolina Panthers placed restricted free-agent tenders on 14 players on Wednesday, including running back DeAngelo Williams, defensive end Charles Johnson and quarterback Matt Moore.

For a damn good record-setting running back

I am a huge DW fan and I hope he retires as a Panther, but still you have to admit that a 1st and 3rd is a lot to give up for a running back given their risk of injury and longevity.

Backs are cheap and for good reason. It's been a long time since a team with a bellcow back has won a Super Bowl. It's nice to have, but not all that important to have a stud back outside of fantasy football.

If Hurney got a first and third for Dwill, he should have the stadium named after him.

I suppose its a lot but we are talking

He set:

NCAA record 7,573 career all-purpose yards and 34 100-yard rushing games

Since he was drafted in 06 (1st round):

Selected for the Pro Bowl

Panthers Record for most rushing yards in a season

Panthers record for most rushing touchdowns and total touchdowns in a season

To me, he is worth at least a 1st rounder, but I guess that's just me.

    • I think Canales goes before Young in that scenario.
    • But that's the point, if the locker room feels that way, then you're going to upset them by still keeping Bryce around and playing him over the Top 10 pick, as opposed to bringing in a vet to start until the rookie is ready. Again, it goes one of 3 ways... 1. Bryce plays well enough to earn an extension 2. Bryce still sucks and we draft his replacement who starts Week 1 with a new QB as his backup 3. Bryce still sucks, we draft his replacement in the 1st, but they start the season backing up a new vet QB who was brought in to be his mentor. With an OUTSIDE chance at a 4th option where Bryce plays well enough to convince the team to let him play out the 5th year option and then make a decision.  Which I can't see it happening, but there is still a non zero chance of that happening I guess. The only way we draft a QB next year and still have Bryce on the roster, is if we're taking someone in the middle rounds hoping to develop them as a long term backup to Bryce.
    • I hear you. But I am not absolving Legette just because he is from my neck of the woods or anything else.  Tge comment was more about the fans uneven application of blame.  I do agree that there is a noticeable disconnect between him and the QB and that he might do better with a more polished and capable delivery man.  Abd don’t feel that they used XL right, or at least how I expected it to look.  And that could be a function of a reticent WB that shies away from that style of attack. I mean it was either him or Canales that pretty much eliminated downfield from the playbook - even while we see guys running free at times. It Could work if they commit to it.  Whoever isn’t committing.
