J-Stew - What do we do?


GotSwag?

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

Been pondering over what we should do with J-Stew and figured Id bring this thought to the Huddle. He is a FA after this coming season and with D-Wills contract, it got me thinking...Do we...

1) Re-sign J-Stew. Just wondering here if he is going to be looking for a D-Will type contract. If so, I dont know if we have the room. Maybe we can restructure D-Will and have the abilities to keep both.

2) Trade J-Stew this offseason. I dont like or want this option, but if a team is willing to give up a 1st for him, would you atleast consider it??

3) Just keep him around one more season and let it play itself out. You never know whos going to have to be released or restructured or just how much money we will have then, so just hold onto him for one more season?

---I dont see this topic being discussed on here, but its something I have wondered about and just want to know what the Huddle thinks we should do with J-Stew. Discuss ---

let Stewart play out the last year of his contract. No need to rush into a deal w/ a RB. If he stays healthy.....resign him.

you don't trade a healthy Stewart...IF, IF you get rid of part of Double Trouble it is Williams that goes after the 2012 season.

A team isn't going to trade for a then 30 year old, going on 31, running back.

I didn't say anything about trading Williams. If your option is resigning a healthy Stewart after 2012 and cutting a 30 yr old DeAngelo.....you resign Stewart and cut DeAngleo.

What I was saying was that no team is going to trade for him, because cutting him shouldn't be an option. The cap hit, which is indicated in RocknRolla's thread, would be gigantic if we released him.

hopefully drafting 1st round RBs are a thing of the past and we grab one next year to start grooming a RB behind these guys.. Stew will be around for a while, we need a guy to replace DWill...

it would be nice to trade the guy before he starts trending down, anything is better than nothing.

    • Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?
    • Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
