Panthers signed WR Rashad Ross.

A 2013 undrafted free agent, Ross bounced around the back end of NFL rosters before shining for the "Arizona Hotshots" in the AAF. He posted a robust 36 catches 583 yards 7TD's 16.2 ave line across eight games. No spring chicken — Ross turned 29 in February — he will need to light up padless practices before having a strong preseason to crack the Panthers' 53-man roster.

Interesting sign. 29 year old WR whos bounced around from camp to camp.  7 total career college TDs 6 coming last year.  8 NFL teams in 6 years.  in 8 games with AAF was 1st with 7 TD grabs. 2nd guy was Charles Johnson with 5 Tds.

Camp body?

The guy dominated the AAF and while that’s not saying much, there were several fringe NFL caliber players in the league so he’s got a better chance than most day 3 picks or UDFAs from the upcoming draft. Not a bad move.

    • I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.
    • overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.     
    • Im really curious to see how the defense is going to look once its playing with some leads.
