Jonathan Stewart was drafted by the Carolina Panthers in this years 2008 draft. Stewart went 13th overall, and looks to have huge fantasy value this season. The former Oregon Duck is built like a bus at 5-11 235 lb’s. Stewart has great hands and can pick up the block in pass protection, which is key in Carolina’s offense. The “get the ball in Steve Smith’s hands” play sometimes takes a second or two for him to shake off his double coverage. I can see J.Stewart being a goal line favorite and even a full time starter by wk 6. Some are worried about the toe surgery he had done in March, while others know Stewart has been quick in recovery from other minor injuries. With J. Otah (the other 1st rounder) added to the O-line, Carolina looks to surprise many in the 2008 season. RB D. Williams is the starter as of now, but keep an eye on Stewart through the preseason.
