If this were 5 years ago, I'd say sure. Davis has been more of a liability to the Panthers than an asset and he wouldn't make a miracle comeback with us.
We have RB depth. We could use the roster spot better in SO many other ways.

Lets not forget that until last year he held our rushing record, and the last time we made the playoffs it was pretty much on his back. Like others have said I would let him on for the VET min, get one more year and let him get a piece of that SB dream.

screw it, bring him in for vet minimum and let him retire a skin
I live in NC know, Davis will tell anyone with a mic that he preferred NC and had his best years there.

12 Rushing TDs last year and zero fumbles lost? A liabillity?
1444 yards rushing; 14 TDs; and zero fumbles lost in 2003? A liability?
Not sure I see any support for that statement.

I think the answer is fairly simple ... he does not want to play here.

Except he (allegedly) approached our FO about a meeting.
I'm not sure the offensive philosophy of Al Saunders requires a bruising back who has gotten progressively slower in the past few years.

From what I saw Saturday, we already have a great short yardage alternative in Mike Sellars. Much as I love Davis, this is not an area of need.

Just no need. Too many other options that can bring the same or better to the table. Sellers can bang. Nemo can bang. Hell Rock can bang probably as good as Davis at this point. He doesn't catch the ball very well out of the backfield and he'd probably break a hip if he tried.
