It seems every year around now there isn't too much to discuss and I always tend to realize how awesome Thomas Davis is. Behind Harris & Beason, TD is extremely important to our defensive chemistry, cohesiveness, and overall play. At times, he becomes a very under-appreciated aspect of our team.

Hard-hitter, multi-talented, now an extremely solid vet. And I hate to look at stats too much, but his best "on-paper" year was in fact last season:

113 Tackles

3.5 Sacks

2 Forced Fumbles

here's to TD :cheers2:

He's easily the most underrated player on the team, from a fan aspect and also where the media is concerned. He had a slow start due to a less than perfect transition from S to SLB to S to SLB to WLB but he's finally come into his own and I can't wait to see him again this year. He is the Lance Briggs to the Brian Urlacher if you will.

From a post of mine a couple weeks ago:

Let's face it, the guy is 26 years old, has escalated his impact every year, and is now playing next to an All-Pro 24 year old team leader."

And he really knows how to bring the wood.

I have met the guy. Solid character off the field, if you ask me. I met him during the foulness that was a couple of months ago, when the Peppers saga took a turn for the worst. The guy had nothing bad to say about the situation, he just praised Pep for his hard work and wished him the best.

I did joke with him at the time about how I held off on the #90 jersey, so I could buy the #34. He was like...man, why not the #58????

Easily one of my top five favorite Panthers

Not at all surprising. He's a keeper and I don't think he has come close to his potential. 26 years old.:)

      a look at our 19 udfas

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.

      Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
