Just because it now seems fitting with Manning signing in Denver.

What say you?

[detlef]

That they could be pretty nice.  Their D kept them in a bunch of games and now they have a real NFL QB.  Old man Willis put up nice numbers in that offense, so why not Stew?

[tazinib1]

I wouldn't mind that at all!

Neither would most JStew and DWill owners

[KOKIDKOKID]

I hope they move JStew...Jebus that Carolina backfield is now overloaded to the max with Tolbert signing their.

KO'd

I think the Tolbert signing means that either JStew gets traded or that DWill gets cut.

Cincy or green bay should trade a second round pick for jstew immediately

I think this.

Any thoughts on where DWill goes if he gets cut?

In a freaking New York minute!!!

[flemingd]

I don't see them trading the younger, lower-mileage RB. Deangelo's got $17.2 mill cap dollars on him still so cutting him is out.  A trade for a late round pick is the only thing that makes sense IMO.

Wrut wroe wraggy!

Jonathan Stewart - RB - Panthers

"Multiple team sources" tell the Charlotte Observer that Jonathan Stewart is "unlikely" to be traded despite the Panthers' addition of Mike Tolbert.
The Panthers will face a tough decision when Stewart enters 2013 free agency, but for now they're poised to keep him along with DeAngelo Williams and Tolbert. Tolbert will likely shoulder some of the load on passing downs, and cover kicks on special teams. Stewart and Williams will be the primary backs. The Panthers could consider cutting Williams and re-signing Stewart next offseason, although releasing DeAngelo would cause a roughly $5 million cap hit in 2013.

With Cam stealing so much of the fantasy value rushing I'm not sure it matters. But at least one of the two could have gone to a better situation, and that would add some value to the other. Yep clusterSNICKERS for sure.

Stupid.  Just plain dumb IMO.  Those are valuable assets they can use to shore up other areas of the team.  Why the he11 keep all three, not to mention that they have a RB playing QB also?  

Makes no sense to me.

I also didn't see them throwing that much money at Williams when they had Stewart and Goodson just came off a season where had 60+ catches in limited work, but the Panthers seem to have an identity crisis at RB like a socially akward 13 year old girl.

I guess if they think Tolbert can handle a good portion of the work, then they could easily let Stewart go to fill other holes, and have Tolbert, Williams, Goodson (and of course Cam vultures all the TDs anyway) in sort of a RBBC.

[Azazello1313]

I'd put more money on DWill coming here (after being cut).

[tazinib1]

Just a damned shame. So many years wasted.

This.

[efi4eye]

Why would D Will get cut?  He played great last year, 5.4 YPC, 850 yds rushing, 8 TDs on only 155 carries.  It's not like he underperformed, they just didn't use him.  Stupid of Carolina to give that much money to a guy they barely ran the ball with.  If he does get cut, it's bad business IMO.  Stewart is an FA next year, trading him is a much better move IMO.  

There's no reason they sign Tolbert unless they are planning to be without either J Stew or D Will in the near future

If the Packers gave up a second rounder for more offense with their defensive needs I would have to return to the area to shoot the GM's dog.  (Any GM whose first and lst name initials are the same should be aware that there is precedence for this type of senseless, cruel, ignorant violence)

[piratesownninjas]

I think we may be jumping the gun.  Tolbert is one of the best special teams players in the league.  I think he's going to be all over special teams, play fullback, and be an emergency ball carrier.  I like TOlbert a lot, but lets not act like he's the same skillset/talent of DeAngelo Williams or Jonathan Stewart.
