You never thought Slaton would have that good of a year though, be honest. :P IIRC before the draft, you were pretty skeptical of his ability to succeed in the NFL. That said, he was great. I liked watching him run. I think he fits well in Hou.

But your premise I can get behind, OL in the first, RB in the second. A lot of people thought that (esp w/Forte in 2nd). I wonder if they had had a first rounder this year, woud they have taken Brown with it?

I wonder also who would pick on Carolina for going RB and RB in the first with only a few years in between now that Indy just did pretty much the same thing.

Oh your right I thought for sure Slaton would be a bust but this is hindsight so I can say Slaton now. :lol:

Stewart is a speed guy as well... Dude can fly. Not sure what your point was. lol

however, to answer the question, Stewart all day long... It's rare to find a guy with his speed and size and character and talent...

i honestly think stewart is faster than williams, i don't know if he'll bulk up more this season but last season he looked faster

Jonathan Stewart got close to 1000 yards as a number two back. How is this even a question? Fox could put on a uni and play QB handing off the ball and it would still be a formidable offense... :lol:

which begs the question, why did we stop running the ball against AZ?! :frown2:

this would be a tough decision, if from day one flacco could have the same chemistry with smith that delhomme does...but going off the fact that no other panther QB has been able to do it, stewart hands down.

stewart had just as much or more of an impact with carolina as a #2 as all the other starting rookie RB that were drafted after him did with their respective teams.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth

      I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.

      We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
