Is Stewart Worth A 2Nd Round Pick?

Recommended Posts

This may have been posted. ....I know it has been debated According to Elva Silva He believes he will be traded for a 2nd round pick.

"Carolina's combined $52 million investments in DeAngelo Williams and Mike Tolbert don't make Stewart the odd man out, per se, but they certainly raise the question of whether Stewart will be a Panther beyond 2013. (He may not make it that long.) Stewart's rookie contract is up after this season, and Carolina isn't going to be able to keep paying all three backs. With Stewart coming off an impressive year (career-high 5.36 YPC, 47 catches) it's time to strike while the iron is hot.

Though he's in a contract season, an acquiring team won't have to commit top dollar to Stewart because it can slap him with the franchise tag in 2013. Based on 2012 tender numbers, a team could get Stewart's age-25 and 26 seasons for what essentially amounts to a two-year, $9.053 million commitment. As a premium talent, Stewart is well worth that money in a keep-and-tag scenario."

It depends who you ask. Taken objectively probably if he's to be a primary back and not split the backfield.

Are we likely to get a 2nd for him if we were to try to move him? No. The prevalence of the split backfield and the rise of the passing league pretty much dictate that we won't.

I love Dwill but even Dwill might agree Stewart is the better back and we need Stewart here dude is a fuging beast...I have came to terms that Stewie might leave us and it upsets me but I will live. I believe we should let Stewie play this season and franchise him next year if we cant get a long term deal done.

Well Fox would know what he is getting coupled with they want the super bowl now.I could see a Denver trade happening.

If this happened (and I stress if because I'm not in the camp that believes we will move Stewart this season) I wouldn't expect more than a 3rd.

Whatever happened to Denver being the 1000-yard rusher factory? Since when do they value RBs so highly?

they have a whole new coaching staff and whole new front office so it's a different factory than it used to be

After zone blocking left.

That said, no Stew is not worth a 2nd to anyone at the moment. During training camp when a no. 1 back goes down on a "contender" then yes, he may very well be.

We should have kicked DWill to the curb last season, and extended Stew this season.....we are so dumb....fo real.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
