Good questions and you are probably goign to get opposing answers.
I would keep Stewart over Blount. I have been a huge fan of Stewart since coming into the league and believe he is a star and a player that can be a top 5 RB. Blount, while big, bruising as well as putting up a decent rookie campaign is just not as good as Stewart.
This one is even harder. Mike Williams could be a superstar. VIncent Jacksonn has been. In strictly a smaller keeper league I would give the edge to Jackson, in a dynasty league I would give the edge to Williams and take the risk that I have a superstar kid rostered.
Thanks, forgot to say it's a 10 team league with 5 keepers per year. ALSO whichever of the two I don't keep I'm going to try and trade for some draft picks....
To me the first one is harder. Blount will probably be the guy for a while in TB but I feel Stewart is a better back. If DWill goes elsewhere Stewarts value skyrockets. Id probably keep Stewart because I have always been high on him.
The second one I would keep Mike Williams. He has less baggage and proved to be very solid in his first year.

I favor Blount and Williams -- the big problem being your heavy reliance on TB's offense.
Carolina is an awful, terrible team in an awful, terrible situation. Thus, while J. Stewart maybe a better back, he's in a far, far worse situation.
V. Jax has put up awesome points, but I can't help but be upset with him last season. Williams is consistent, in a good spot, and is a very talented young WR. I'm a fan.
This. No problem with any of the possible combos you could come up with from this crop of 4 guys, but I think Stewart still has a bit more upside than Blount and I have a feeling what we've seen from Williams is just the tip of the iceberg. Like I said, a Blount/VJax combo wouldn't hurt you, but gun to the head I like the other two guys a tad better ...

Mike Williams has less baggage than who, Delta?
That being said, Williams has been a total professional since joining the league. But it's only been one year -- let's see if he has indeed matured since his Syracuse days. I still think that Williams has the higher upside due to his age, and would probably keep him over VJax, but his past has to be considered.
