Panthers sign Alliance league player

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.

    • He rushed for 74 more yards than Chuba did last year. He also played in all 17 games versus 15 for Chuba.
    • He's played like an average starter in maybe a third of his career games. Below average to bad in the rest. My point is that if you put a 200 yard RB behind pretty much any NFL roster caliber QB he's going to be able to play like an average starter leaning on that running game. But we're talking about a third year #1 overall pick with 30+ starts under his belt and we're still having to grade on a massive curve like we're playing some young mid-round pick who was drafted to be a backup. If that was the type of guy we were playing yeah, everyone could be happy about it but it's not. It's a guy we mortgaged the franchise on because the organization thought they were getting a franchise QB who could carry a team and we're still having to try to find ways to carry him.
    • Miles Sanders rushed for damn near 1300 yards in Philly. More than any season for Chuba. And I didn't "poo" on Chuba. That's your interpretation. I think he's a gritty between the tackles running back, but he isn't a homerun threat. Never has been. He's a consistent get you positive yards back.
