Panthers restricted free agent WLB Thomas Davis said ideally he'd like to sign a long-term deal with Carolina. "It's definitely my preference," Davis said. "I'm from Georgia, so I'm close to home. I love Carolina and they have been good to me and my family. I'm excited about being here and I want to finish my career here."

This may have been quoted somewhere else, I apologize if it has. This has been assumed by a lot of people, but it's good to hear him say it.

Most folks prefer to play for the team that drafted them. That is until the money is involved. Players and agents know this is a business and that is the bottom line. As long as we pay him fairly he will stay here. He won't pull a Peppers on us.

i hope so, keeping him and beason around as long as possible will make our LB core one of the best in the league for a long time.

i know a lot of guys say this type of thing, but part of me thinks he really means it. I see him at almost every bobcats game that i attend.

I used to see Chris Harris at a lot of Bobcats Games :(

Just from reading his Twitter, Chris Harris seems like the kind of guy who supports the other professional teams in the city he plays for, since he's heavily rooting for the Chicago Blackhawks at the moment.

TD was at a benefit party at my best friend's parent's house - they couldn't believe how nice he was. Friend's dad was showing him around the house and in the office dad had a Panthers football. TD asked why it didn't have autographs and dad said that he was 64 years old and just didn't have the time nor inclination to get autographs. TD said that he'd take it to the stadium and get all the players to sign it.

Harris said on FNZ shortly after the trade back to Chicago that one of the things he would miss the most about Charlotte was attending Bobcats games.

Reading the title of this thread made me think it was talking about Hollis Thomas.

u r definately right about being one of the top lb corps for a long time. i hope TD retires as a panther becuz he has been nothing but great for us. he is def a top 5 WLB in the game.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking
