[quote=SunnySide;1247507]It’s unclear whether or not Davis will factor into the starting equation with the Redskins, but he has the athletic upside to do so. At 6-foot-1, 203, Davis has 4.46 speed and a 37.5-inch vertical, encapsulating very good athletic range and explosiveness. Julie Donaldson of NBC Sports, who has good tie-ins with the Redskins, stated on Twitter that the team “wanted someone to play opposite Landon Collins”. It appears as though Davis could be that player. He’ll likely compete with Montae Nicholson, a player in a relatively similar situation.

Davis will have to be more consistent in D.C., as well as stay healthy, but he has a very exciting athletic profile, as well as an intriguing mix of experience and youth; he’s only 26 years old, but he’s already started 41 career games. It’ll be up to the Redskins coaching staff to glean production from his potential, and if they can, Davis could outplay his contract value.

I havent seen a lot of Sean Davis in the NFL (watched him alot w the terps) but it appears he is a more center field deep-ball safety and should match up nicely with Collins .. at least on paper.

5 M, 1 year ... I like the addition. Hopefully he can be an above average starter for us.[/quote]

If he can make fewer boneheaded decisions on and off the filed, he'd be an upgrade from Nicholson.

[quote=Warthog;1247467]I’m still butt hurt that we didn’t get Hooper. I think Rivera was really focused on Cooper and thought if they just out-bid Dallas that we could get him. But there are no taxes in Texas and it’s not like Washington or Snyder has a good reputation in the NFL. The Redskins could not get both Cooper and Hooper so their money was there for Amari and Cleveland wanted Hooper badly and Hooper wanted to go there .

The rest of FA has been pretty much a non-event for the Redskins. It’m glad to see Fuller come back and I think he will shine here.

I was pretty sure that Trent was gone, but an unintentional benefit of the Cooper non-signing was that he could stay here if Trent would drop his price. A possibility, although if it happens it will be much closer to the draft. If we get the second round pick, it will go toward a TE.

Glad we didn't sign him. It would be the type of signing like so many we've had around here. It's great when the deal is done, then in 2 years when he has 50 catches for 550 yards and 4 td's everyone would be pissed off and call it another FA bust. We can easily find someone in the draft that is as good or better than Hooper and pay that person on a rookie deal.

100% agreed. Let's stop acting like Ebron and Hooper are Gronk and Kelce already.

That being said, TE is the only spot that I'm worried about, so I hope they have a legit plan in FA.

Compared what the Redskins have paid the last couple years for the production at the tight end position those guys are Gronk and Kelce. It would take a major screw up not to improve that position.

Sucks that's a signing I would have loved us to get...

Definitely [I][U]not[/U][/I] joining the "it's a catastrophic FA, Rivera has no plan" bandwagon, but it's not exactly the FA we were hoping for either.

But I'll tell you what, I was curious to see what our former roster would be worth under a true coaching staff, I guess we'll kinda find out.

We will get our TE in the draft and he’ll be good, Kyle will find someone.

We are in same boat.. It's obvious that Riveria and the FO are going with long-term plans

Can't remember his name to save my life but Cooley was pretty high on a TE coming out of this draft on Sheehan's podcast the other day.

Also believe Ron wants to see exactly how the players he has fits in the team/scheme this coming year.

But the sense within the building is this team isn’t in a long rebuild..that Ron, Kyle and lil danny believe this could be a quick turnaround with the young pieces they have.

I sure hope the draft is way more exciting than free agency.

Yeah...Cooley had a bunch of guys he worked with at some event and has said while not elite prospects this year, there is a decent group of talent.

As we get closer they will come into focus. I know one guy who is a sleeper is a guy from Georgia. He said as we get closer he will climb. Charlie Woerner...H-back-type tight end.

Check out some film on Harrison Bryant, Cole Kmet, and Adam Trautman. Let me know what you think.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings 2020
 
Bryant is my favorite of that bunch but it's also very rare to rely on a rookie TE to be that guy

Frankly, I am pretty disgusted with our FA so far, particularly at TE and wide out.
