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.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
