Is Stewart Worth A 2Nd Round Pick?

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.

    • Yeah not taking that Burns trade was infinitely stupid. We seem to be finally righting the ship but, imo, our biggest issue since Tepper bought the team has been coaches and management having a poor understanding of where our own roster is at. Starting with that idiot Rhule drinking his own kool-aid and thinking he was going to come and take the NFL by storm with Teddy freaking Bridgewater. Could have just kept Cam on the last year of his contract and gone from there but noooo that fat slob had to feel like he was the big man on campus. First round wizard Marty Hurney who, for whatever his faults, has a freaking HOF track record with first round picks, wants to trade up for Hebert but fat fug Rhule says no. Then we kept Rhule for 3 years which is absolutely unbelievable to me and every single year he treated our roster like it was just one player away trading our draft picks for Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield who have proven since leaving that Matt Rhule was an even bigger idiot of a coach than we thought. We finally seem to understand we are a ways off and trade CMC, but then we don’t take the actual good trade for Brian Burns who was never better than a run of the mill situational pass rusher. Then we botch the self scout of our OL (and team) after Wilks, even though they were bad before Wilks simplified the scheme, thinking they can execute whatever the hell Reich and Brown were trying to do. So we win a couple meaningless games playing dummy ball and Fitterer thinks we’re a player away again. And nobody even considers that having the slowest receiving corps imaginable with Damiere freaking Byrd, who can’t even make it to the season before being injured and cut, as your only hope for speed, coupled with the worst pass blocking OL I’ve ever seen, might lead to titanic levels of disaster. The way Canales and Morgan have been adamant about constantly bringing competition at every position has been refreshing and made a huge difference. I was kind of worried that we had fallen into our old ways leading up to the draft with all the talk of defense only and worried that they might feel the offense was set. Very glad to see they were not complacent on that. My big thing now is I’m still wondering why Evero is still here. I can’t think of a single player who has gotten better under him, and the Broncos defense got better once he left. We’ll see.
    • really good interview that gives some insight into their decision making process in making up the schedules and the issues they run into with so many people broadcasting games now. also some interesting discussion on what they have going on and where they might be heading in the international games. vikings have 2 of them, btw. we might be seeing more of that.     
    • wow i absolutely LOVED watching that.   will watch again...and again...and again.
