Carolina doesn't seem like a mismanaged franchise to me. As such, I don't anticipate them trading one of their best players, especially when he's only 23 and still on his rookie contract.
Or trade it for a 2012 1st rounder.
Hey Mr. Sass, Calvin Johnson isn't on the the Raiders now it's my turn to roll my eyes.
Does anyone think that Carolina would start selling off pieces if they realized before the trading deadline that they aren't going to compete for a few years?
Do you think Jonathan Stewart (I assume they'd trade him before Williams) is worth a 1st? how about a 2nd?
Would it even be worth it since the team seems to prefer running plays out of the shotgun?
Just a passing thought.
I was going to write assmough since we had a ****load of threads here and forgot to change it after I chose Calvin Johnson, my point remains the same
The return of Patrick Pass perhaps???
Even if you had gotten the player's team right, still not sure you made your point. What's wrong with picking up a good running back from a team which has a solid RB as a starter? Teams do it with QB's all the time. The Patriots have a bevy of draft picks, and instead of (lets say) using the #2 with drafting a back, they send it to Carolina for a back. Seems like the compensation would be the issue, rather then the thought.

The NFL is a two back league, do you think Carolina drafted Stewart with their first pick for the hell of it? No, the drafted Stewart to complement and relive DeAngelo. They got exactly what they wanted in 2 1000+ yard rushers why would the go and trade on of them away when they are one of the few bright spots on the team.
I don't think the league is a two back league......... A couple of teams have two good backs, but thats a luxury, and if I was fighting to be 500 I'd trade that luxury.
You're right, a 7-9 team was really drafted for luxury.
Dude, your not making your case. It's a two back league? Start there.
I have no problem if the Patriots want to trade a high pick on a good back who is a back-up.
