Sure why not.

[Camp Fodder]

We Need an rb3 as well unless we are drafting one 

[Basbear]

So long its NON-guaranteed.  

[Move the Panthers to Raleigh]

I was scared this meant Ian Thomas was coming back

Rather see a new face on returns personally or a bruiser RB otherwise

If we do it would be basically league minimum I assume. At this point I would rather just draft an RB in the later rounds or scoop up one of the undrafted backs that will assuredly be available and have potential.

I totally agree just get a late rounder who has return ability.  Put him back there with XL

He has interest elsewhere, so I doubt league min would do it.  Unless he just really buys into what we are doing here, but he has to know he isn't irreplaceable going forward.  I would think he would just use us as leverage.

Hopefully we are doing him a solid and helping with that.  I doubt we see him back here under the circumstances.

Let's test drive someone else.

There probably should have been quotations around "interest".

There's probably a front office position waiting for him after he retires.
