Stewart owners (1 Viewer)

This DeAngelo signing was a HUGE blow to Stewart dynasty owners. His value sitting on the bench to this point was under the assumption he'd be the man now. Well, he's not.

Are you just going to hold and wait the 2 more years?

Are you going to sell low?

Wait for the season and see if things change or injury happens?

 
the plan may be to hope the poison kicks in before the noose tightens after you kick the chair out from under yourself. Yuck...

LOL..I dunno. The ultimate payoff is gone now. He's either a frustrating "never know when to play him/can't play him with confidence all the time" player or he's the guy that you keep holding on to and then someday he gets a chance but by then he is 26-27 and who knows what the situation will be.

I would say JSTEW owners are just beside themselves wondering WHY...?

 
He's screwed until he can get out of Carolina or DeAngelo gets hurt.

I'd sell him for a Ryan Williams type if possible, but doubt he can bring in that kind of value now as he's at best a flex play instead of a rb1/2 which he would have been with DeAngelo gone.

 
He's another Michael Turner, except he'll get enough carries to be a viable option before he gets a true starting gig. You have to hold on and hope for the best. Tough blow, though. I have him in one league where I was already thin at RB and this hurts.

 
I was as high on JStew as anyone before the DWill resigning, luckily I was unable to obtain him in any of my league. The optimist in me says maybe we'll see a JStew trade.

 
I reluctantly drafted Steward despite owning DeAngelo. It wound up working out as it's a nice handcuff situation (which has been used at very opportune times)...but I still wanted to see Williams move on so they both could get a solo shot. I'll shop them both around, but will likely stay put. I doubt I would get much for either. Total > sum of parts kind of a thing.

 
I have had Jstew for 3 yrs. He just doesn't make the cut for my 5 keepers this year. If I can pick him as a late round back, I will. I would have thought hard about dropping VJax if he was the main back in Carolina.

Current Keepers

ADP

MJD

Megatron

Nicks

VJax

 
I'll shop him, but doubt I'll see much of a return and will likely just stand pat. Maybe for a late 1st round pick? A WR breakout candidate? His potential is equal to either of those, IMO, but doubt you'll see that kind of trade value.

I was offered Roy Helu by a circling vulture in my league. At that price, I hold.

I think you only have two options. One is the above. Wait for injury and sell him high. The other is to try to move him to the DWill owner. He is worth much more to him than anyone else. It was like owning Ricky and Ronnie 2 years ago. They were both startable, but after Ronnie got hurt week 10 (?), Ricky became a top 3 RB. That's a comforting feeling and with their injury history, it should be an easy sell.

I would happily give you a late 1st for him. ;)
 
ever consider he was going to be in a RBBC regardless if dwill stayed or went?

imo the time to sell has passed. i sold high in the off season while owners like this bunch thought he was going to be handed over the reins with no one else in carolina getting any touches.

Oh man oh man, would trade a 2012 1st for him in a heartbeat. If you believe in the talent, it's the perfect time to buy (or hold).

This is almost as bad as Sid Rice signing with SEA (if that happens).I honestly dont know what I'm going to do with him. His value just dropped through the floor, but he has so much talent, I think you have to hold him for a bit to recover some value.
 
Another guy who saw his value plummet is Mike Goodson, who with Williams gone could have been a decent spot start in PPR, and a great handcuff to Stewart.

This is my situation too as owner of both. Was really hoping to eventually wind up with 2 starters from the moment I drafted Stewart. This signing was devestating for Stewart owners, pending unforeseen injury to Deangelo. There's no other way to paint Stewrat being rostered with another RB who is making that much money for that many years. Gotta think they didn't pay that much money to use Deangelo as a stuational back. Probably nothing good can come to Stewart owners until his contract is up.

Goodson was a guy I was holding/stashing, but may now get cut to make room for rookies.

I'm talking 2011 rookie draft...haven't had ours yet.
 
Own DW and JS in dynasty - pissed it happened but nothing can be done about it. Would rather hold to secure the backfield in case of injury.

I actually traded Gerhart for Goodson this off season in the expectation that Goodson would handcuff Stewart for me. Now, I will probably cut him too.
 
I plan on going around to all the DeAngello Williams threads complaining about what a horrible signing this was by the Panthers.

 
Obviously I'd hoped for solo jobs for each but I'm not that worried about a 28 year old rb who hasn't played a full season since 2008. His YPC dropped over a yard between 2008 and 2009 too. Stewart will get his chance. I'm holding, no question.

 
I am just glad the Broncos didn't sign him. He is on the wrong side with age catching up. I think Stewart starts this year when Williams gets hurt.

Stewart still worth keeping. Williams will get hurt this year just watch. Defenses will stack the line and Williams won't hold up.

 
I think Carolina knows what they have in Stewart. He's clearly the team's most talented/second most talented offensive threat once and if Steve Smith leaves. Behind him, you have a rookie QB, Brandon LaFell, David Gettis, and Jeremy Shockey. Perhaps we'll see either Williams or Stewart become more of a receiver this season. Who knows? Either way, I doubt Stewart will finish as a RB3/Flex as some are saying.

 
I'm hearing that the organization would be willing to move Stewy. But I won't hold my breath.. 2013 is the next potential breakout date if they hold both RB's for the season..

 
traded him+Deji Karim+2013 2nd for Jimmy Graham+2012 1st+2013 3rd (both teams likely in playoffs). Curious to see what kind of value other people are getting. Everything about this situation screams perfect time to buy low if you can afford to wait, but the return was good enough (and my team weak enough at TE and strong enough at RB) I figured why not pull the trigger

 
If you believe in his talent, you have to think he overtakes Williams in the next year or two. Fact is, if he can't push a 29 year old running back into a backup role, he may not be as talented as his believers have thought him. I believe Stewart is more talented than Turner and while Williams is a good running back, he isnt LT.

I have held him for a bit and I think that Stewart assumes the #1 job sometime before he becomes a UFA. I've believed in his talent since 2008, I can't see him staying as a backup.
