Give Jonathan Stewart just one full season as a full-time starter and there’s no doubt what you’d see emerge is a Top-5 fantasy RB for years to come. In the three games DeAngelo Williams missed in 2009, Stewart averaged 23.3 carries/game, and with those carries, Johnny put up 150.3 yards/game, one TD/game, and an average of 21.8 fantasy points per game. Multiply that out over a full 16-game season and you’re looking at some absolutely mind-boggling numbers. However, the reality of the situation is that the Panthers use both Stewart and Williams as a platoon, and even though both came out of 2009 with close to fantasy starter numbers, neither will crack the Top-5 like they would if they were used on a full-time basis.
