Panthers tried signing a RB...

but skins said psychhhh

Redskins practice squad RB James Davis indicated on Twitter that the Panthers tried to sign him to their active roster Monday, but that Washington blocked the move.

Tweeted Davis, "I thought stayin' here could be a good fit plus the Skins took care of me." Teams can increase practice squad salaries in order to "block" players from signing with active rosters elsewhere. It also sounds like Davis is confident he could get a look on Washington's 53-man roster before the season is through. Davis is someone to keep a close eye on with Ryan Torain (hamstring) and Clinton Portis (groin) banged up.

So guys are passing on an active NFL roster spot to stay on the PS. Wow. HC search will be about the same based on the tune Fox is singing right now. Low point in Panthers history is right now.

Everyone gets healthy and he is gone. Prolly made a good decision since the Skins obviously like him.

eh, Davis is just thinking long term. Carolina has Williams, Stewart, Sutton and Goodson. He would be a one week or two week fill in and gone. Redskins don't have that kind of depth at RB. I think what Davis said makes sense....he has a better shot of being a legitimate player for Washington.

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
