So...about Thomas Davis

[Baschski]

Anderson is better than Diggs ever was. Diggs was a quietly solid player, but not spectacular. Anderson makes plays. If TD can get/stay healthy, Anderson/Beason/Davis will be the best LB core in the league, bar none.

[PantherDude]

When Davis is healthy & come back, it should be Anderson Beason Davis as it always should've been. We should not get rid of Connor, 'cause what if Beason get hurt? Put Connor in for him. Unless he's willing to stay as Beason's backup here.

[SOJA]

If Davis is healthy he has to move back to the Will and our Pro Bowler has to move back to the Mike.....sorry Connor I love your hard work and your a great player, but TD is that good.

I remember prior to this season starting after the TD injury, I was pretty worried about our LB core but they have played pretty much played lights out given the situation they are in. Exceeding expectations and I think will continue to impress week by week.

How about we just play a 4-4 and leave all the lb's out there so no one sits. lol

[PhillyB]

either anderson, connor, or davis would make great trade bait to fill another position of need on the team. hate to let talent sit on the bench... and we've got a lot of it at the position.

[SmokeScreen]

yea me and my brother had the same conversation about Anderson, Beason, & TD as our starting LB corp when TD returns. I like connor, but something about beason that just says BEAST!

how many linebackers have come back from two torn acls? i'm too lazy to find out myself.....mr. scot? would it be risky to trade anyone already on the roster?

I think I remember Julian Peterson getting banged up a good bit before he went on produce the same as he always did. The injuries occurred at the time when Peterson was a very similar player to davis.

The fact that they happened so close to each other I think is a good thing.

Him playing this season is probably a bad thing. I really don't want to see him out there unless we're in the playoff hunt.

[SorthNarolina]

If we are able to move Beason back to the middle then Connor will just flat out not play.

He won't come in on the nickle packages and we seem to opt for a SS when we want to overload the box. He'll be a ST ace only.

I've thought this and said this for a long time. If he becomes unhappy then trading him to a 3-4 team that is looking to get rid of a 4-3 lineman makes perfect sense. Both teams and players would be better off. Connor's longevity in a 4-3 is limited IMO.

[PantherFanForLife]

I think Thomas Davis should take his time because the idea of possibly having a Devin Thomas and Thomas Davis playing on the same day this year, is going to give announcers a headache ;p

[Guild]

Connor for Haynesworth straight up baby.

lol

[Pantherman]

Honestly TD most likly want play this season. Why risk a top player like TD to get reinjuried for a possible 3time and end his carreer. Better for them to put him on the IR for the season. The season is pretty much over for use. TD will be ready for next year. Even if does come back. It would pretty much take him the rest of the season to even come close to been in game playing shape. I don't see him playing anymore this year.

[Pantherman]

I'm just wondering why we are even talking about Davis coming back. Has there even been any talk about him even been close come back and play?? If not I don't any reason for him to come back when our season is pretty much in the tank at this point.
