According to Spotrac
It’s really not at all
This is a guy who very likely would be out of the league.

Maybe he was signed as a mentor for Saquon Barkley :).
Could have signed a guy who isn't 30 for 1.5 million cap hit and develop him.
He's got a ton of wear and tear on him, he's been injured countless times, he's 30 years old, and he was shitty last year.
If we're spending money on players just because of our locker room, we're even more fucked than I thought.

His cap hit will probably be 1.5 million this year and next. Basically the vet minimum.

Dion Lewis has 300 less total yards and 7 less TDs over the last 2 years. He got paid as a top 10 RB in the NFL and he's 28.

...with a fraction of miles under his belt. This site has some of the dumbest comments
This is like a desperate move signing and we should not be desperate to sign old players. I would rather have Darkwa back than this. Maybe they signed him as a mentor for Barkley or a vet in the backfield to help a young QB.
He doesn't stay healthy tho.
I what Barkley and like Gallman and Darkwa
This move aggravates me. Stewart is old and was never even really good.
Brad Wing signed a 6.45 million dollar contract. He made 3.9 million.
This Stewart deal is very similar to what we paid a Punter. 1.3 million per year for 3 years for Wing. 1.475 million per year for 2 years for Stewart.

It's bad because he's really old, is not good any more, any snaps he takes are at the expense of younger players who need the reps, and if he's here to for his awesome attitude and to help install the offense he's 100s of % overpaid.

This is the only scenario I agree with...

and is actually a good rb in the league. so stupid

Lewis didn't miss a game last year and was the best NE RB. He had a very, very solid year and is a better player than Stewart.
About 500 less than Lesean McCoy
About 650 less than Marshawn Lynch
Only 470 more than Le'Veon Bell
1600 less than Frank Gore (jeez Gore has had a great career)
Still- this signing is confusing.
Darkwa (26 yo) - 171 attempts/751 yards, 4.4 ypc, 5 TDs
Stewart (31 yo) - 198 attempts/680 yards, 3.4ypc, 5 TDs
Yea - let's sig the older, less productive back, who ran behind a decent OL, while the younger guy ran behind 5 guys who couldn't block Betty White
I like Solder, as an upgrade for us at a crucially weak position, LT. But at a much lower level then a 1st team all pro guard. And like Lewis, ala, Vereen, I'm not excited about the track record of ex-Pats players after they leave the evil empire. Talib, yes, but how many others, and how many on offense.
Stewart is far from a bell cow. But he will convert crucial short yardage 1st downs. I saw a lot of Panther's games this year. Opposite of NE, I think Cam stifles the production of all the Panther's offensive weapons. Too many times, I saw McCaffrey, Stewart, Fozzy Whitaker. wide open on swings destined for 10 yards and one man to beat, and Cam just wanted to do it himself. I don't blame Shula, the guys were open.
I love Barkley, and my Giants Blue Blood, knows if we take the first QB off the board., the Giants will convince me, our future long term is set.
But I still think this in play: Browns take our QB choice. We take Barkley. When the Browns are on the clock at 4, we trade Barkley,(ala Rivers for Eli) for Nelson & picks 33, & 35. We get Nelson, Guice/Michel,Penny, BPA OL, and one wild card value pick , (our 34th).
End of the day if not QB, do you want Barkley, OR, Nelson, 2nd to 5 RB, and a top 5 G or OT?

Tuckrule, I think job #1 is get rid of players who
are not team players. You can't win with them.
My hope is that OBJ is not one of them.
Sorry for the rant. Lol.
And both helped strengthen the running game for their next team.
BBI knows nothing.
I like this signing.
