Omar Kelly: Panthers Willing to Outbid Any Offer for DWill

D-Will should be our top priority. He is the most underrated RB in the NFL.

We have a stacked backfield w/o Williams. DWill is older w/ lots of overall mileage....and missed a lot of time the past 2 years w/ injury.

DWill being a Panther shouldn't be a top priority....especially if it means lots of money that could be used to bring in an impact player at an actual weak position.

D-Will, Smitty, Beason, & Davis are the guys I want retiring Panthers...so I hope this report is true. Cheers.

I disagree.....you generally don't want tons of your favorite guys to retire with the team........unless they comeback to retire. Most guys if they can play longer than they legitimately should.

Look at the greats of the game. There is a reason Jerry Rice, Emmitt Smith, etc. played for different teams. Eventually, players staying become a liability......very few like to walkaway before regressing.

I think Stewart's influence on Williams coming back is underestimated. Those two seem attached at the hip during OTA's, training camp, pre-season, season, post-season(lol), and everywhere in between. I may be reading too much into but they seem to be really close and genuinely enjoy watching each other do well.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
