Trading Jonathan Stewart?

Question

Would it be fair and smart trade to Jonathan Stewart for Earnest Graham? Johnathan Stewart would be my #2 RB

Answer 1

I would definitely trade for Earnest Graham. I'm a Panthers fan and I can say from watching the preseason that DeAngelo Williams is the clear starter. Stewart may get 10-15 touches a game, but he won't be the primary back. I think Graham will get more touches than people think because I don't believe Cadillac will come back strong from his injury.

Answer 2

Stewart is that unknown. Unless Williams just screws up, Stewart will be more of the change of pace, in the mold of a Michael Turner. Graham, I feel, will get more carries than we think. Cadillac is just sooooo iffy. Its a 6 of one / half a dozen of the other when it comes to this trade. I don't see Stewart as your #2 back. I see him more on the bench until he gets some carries. YOu'll have to catch lightning in a bottle with him.

Answer 3

Stewart is a starter, and Earnest has cadillac on his team. Though, i think stewart's edge isn't that big.

Answer 4

I wouldn't do it.  Graham is a proven performer while Stewart, although hyped in the rankings, may not even start since DeAngelo Williams has really looked good.
