Long shot Panthers RB Vaughan trying to run past odds

I like what I've seen of Vaughan, but there's no way he makes our roster. Maybe the practice squad, but I doubt it.
Probably true and he will get picked up by someone else. I am going to stay off the Vaughan bandwagon as it is bad luck for him. I was on the Jason Carter and Taye Biddle Bandwagons and look what happened to them:eek:.

(By Scott Fowler, [email protected]) The Carolina Panthers' leading rusher so far this preseason spent most of last fall tutoring middle-schoolers and driving elderly people to their doctor appointments.p/Such is the flighty nature of the NFL exhibition season.

If we don't,or can't stash him on the practice squad,another team may decide to pick him up.

I am on record here as having had personal reasons at SC for tauting him, but then game #1 came. He was no blazing crazy horse, but he held onto the ball, picked up some 1st D's, expressed a strong desire to be here and was never slammed by the TB'ers.

I believe the idea we'll not keep 5 RB's, but we ain't killing anyone by putting him on PS! He's got a wonderful family, and if you could just meet him..you'd know...he WAS a player well spoken of in Bleacher Report and in a conversation on xm I heard someone state he was a positive aspect of our offense.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
