Why would THomas Davis risk coming out and causing further injury in a year that basically has been thrown in the shitter to begin with?

Smart thing for him to do is sit out until the next season whenever that is and be fully healed and ready to go.

I agree. There is no new for him to come back. He comes back for a meaningless season and end up being hurt would be a silly thing to do. He should just focus on conditioning and getting that knee back together. I had a knee injury a few year ago (patellar tendon). Knee injuries are tricky and should be watched carefully. I am still feeling the effects well I'm sure having top trainers help him more than me lol..but yeh..sit out the rest of the season.

Of course he is coming back and it is all about the money. Right now he is damaged goods and he won't get a big contract here or elsewhere. If he can come back and show he can play like he did before the surgeries, his stock goes way up here and elsewhere.

How the Panthers are doing right now won't factor into his decision much at all.

b/c if he doesn't play this year.....he might end up playing for chump change. He can go out and prove he is still the same player these last few games. I think Carolina owes him that. Remember he was one of those guys who got screwed and had to wait another year.

Otah should go to IR.

Or he may have another knee blowout from not being healed up enough and end his career all together. Making "chump change" of several hundred grand a year sure does beat flipping burgers.

If it were me, I wouldn't go back in. He made about 3 mil this year on the bench rehabbing. I would ask for a 1 year contract for next season for a low price to show that I was back, then go after the big bucks.

Athletes all believe that they are 10 feet tall and bullet proof. So yeah he will come back as soon as he can. guys who are cautious and worry about their health or getting hurt, don't play professional football.

They know the window to make money is small and with there no guarantee about football at all next year will want a big contract before the lockout, not in a year or two.

I hear all of you guys ideas. He could reinjure himself by coming back to soon again or he could come out and have a steller remaining season and increase his value. But hopefully his value with us (Panthers) is already set. Davis is great at LOLB in our scheme and I think that his love for the game and desire and competitiveness will bring him back.

      Very intrigued how Morgan and Canales handle the offseason

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      Dan tends to attack one specific position group per offseason and the sprinkle others throughout the roster. He extended Moton, signed Hunt, Lewis, Nijman one offseason and then extended Brown and signed Wharton and Hunt and drafted Jackson next offseason. My guess is he attacks LB and Edge this offseason.    1. What do you do with Icky? Likely a scratch for next season and due a massive contract (if healthy) They will bring back Nijman and Christensen and draft a guy on Day 2 is my guess and hope one of them can fill the hole. 2. Coker has the talent for 2nd WR, but do you pay a guy who gets hurt that premium? I think hes your number 3 simply due to risk. Will the Panthers seek another vet or go surprisingly high in the draft? They will probably sign him more and longer than the RFA Tender to keep him happy and not break the bank in the process. Can see them getting a Vet in FA like Tutu Atwell or Hollywood Brown. Somebody with speed but also isn’t overly expensive. I think Horn and Tremayne stick around and unfortunately Legette. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tremble released and a real TE in brought in, there is a good FA group this year. 3. Do you give X more feature time? Or cut bait now? I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded him but I’m willing to bet he gets one more year. Maybe Canales can find a role like Shenault had with McAdoo.  4. Planning the long term/short term on OL Like I said I think Christensen and Nijman are brought back for T with a Day 2 rookie and prayer something sticks. Moton, Hunt, Lewis return ofcourse. Probably resign Corbett as a safeguard at Center but I think they go C in the 1st or 2nd. Wouldn’t be shocked to see Morgan trade to the back end of the 1st to get a solid C and add picks. 5. How do you address LB? I think Rozeboom leaves. Hoping CJ Allen or Sonny Styles is still there is too big of a risk. They probably go get Kaden Elliss or Leo Chenal and pay good money for them. Maybe a guy on Day 3 for depth with Cherelus and Martin-Scott. Also think he takes a swing at Edge, wouldn’t be shocked to see Hendrickson or Oweh here.  6. Do you bank of Chuba bouncing back?    I think Chuba remains Chuba. There are some decent change of pace backs out there this year that will be cheap. Still developing Etienne and Brooks may be healthy. I think it’s Chuba and that crew maybe a veteran that’s not Dowdle. More like Deejay Dallas who was here already once.  I also think Dalton calls it and they get an upgrade at back up. Nobody that would endanger Bryce’s job but somebody that isn’t 55 years old either. Trubisky, Minshew, Pickett, Kyle Allen (yes same one).

      This is my answer. If I got board I would just do guest drop ins to obscure podcasts but would definitely collect the cash from Tepper.
