Is DWill healthy?

No, but it would seem that way when the less paid man is outplaying him in every way since Chudz offense has been implemented. I think he may have some eye problems with as many holes he's been missing, however small the holes may be, they open him up to three and four yard runs but he jukes outside of the hole and there is a man waiting.

Either way, does it matter if he's hurt when you're throwing 40+ times a game. Of three good backs, everyones worried about the smallest who can't pick up a blitz and even if he does, gets run over.

Why do you keep saying DeAngelo went on the IR in 2009?... where are you getting this info.

my bad, my memory isn't perfect......he didn't go to IR. He was just injured for what was basically the last quarter of the season in 2009.

dang, CRA...you really hate DWill dont you?

Not at all, he has been one of my favorites. However, I am a Panther fan not just a DeAngelo Willliams fan.

Extending his contract for that money was just dumb. He was unable to play big chunks of his last 2 seasons b/c of injury and is now old as defined in terms of NFL RBs........Fox is gone and we have good and young RBs on the roster. No matter the spin....it was a move that made little sense.

    • Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
    • Crosby will garner a haul in a trade. I would be reluctant to make that trade because of the following: 1. Our overall roster is awful. We cannot afford to be trading away valuable draft capital. 2. He isn't the best fit(IMO) for the scheme that Evero runs.  I love the player but it would really need to be at a reasonable deal and I think he is likely to garner an unreasonable price if he gets traded.
    • In terms of need, EDGE is currently #1. Our pass rush is near league worst levels. However, I don't subscribe to "need" based drafting. BPA all day.  We do need to dramatically upgrade over Scourton, Jones, Wonnum and Umanmielen. That is likely in the running for the NFL's worst two deep. Not saying all those players are bad, but I am saying 100% of those players are 2nd or 3rd stringers.
