Running Back Rank: #32
Overall: #67
Stewart played second fiddle to DeAngelo Williams his rookie season, but still had a productive first season in the NFL. He scored an impressive 10 touchdowns and had just over 800-rushing yards. The Panthers are a run-first team, so Stewart will get plenty of chances in the offense. Williams started last year, but Stewart still had double-digit carries in nine games. Stewart is a big back, but has plus speed and the ability to break a big play at any time. He needs to work on his blocking a bit, though, which could land him on the field a little more. Expect Stewart to have a similar role in the Panthers offense this season.

Having Williams around is a concern, but Stewart still produced for fantasy teams in a split role last season. He can get closer to 1,000 yards this year and once again near double-digit scores in the Panthers run-heavy offense. Consider Stewart a low-end No. 2 fantasy back. |
