Fred Davis Will Make Teams ‘Regret’ Not Signing Him, Including Redskins « CBS DC

“I really feel like since I’ve been in the league I haven’t been recognized to the likening that I would like to be,” Davis told NFL AM recently. In fact, he says the only tight end that really gets any respect is Tony Gonzalez.

- Yes Fred you deserve the same respect as Gonzalez.
Getting a little tired of this guy... if he goes elsewhere I won't lose any sleep.

The longer this goes, the more I remember FDavis was picked in between 2 other Cerrato Stars. Now, he certainly has at least produced on the field, when he has been on, but the level of immaturity, and lack of character - imo - are far more reminiscent of VC guys than anyone here now, and I wonder if that factor's into the Skins decision too. This quote from the linked article makes me want him just a little less:

I definitely feel like whatever team signed any tight ends right now, I’m gonna make them regret anything that they do – AND the Redskins, too, as well – because I know I’m gonna go out here and I’m gonna do what I have to do.

Bolded part is my highlights. I think that quote, while the Redskins are talking to him, is enough for me to be ok with him going. We got him in the 2nd, there will be TE's the 2nd and 3rd, or next year if need be.

Yep. Given the size/reach advantage Lunch Pale has the undeniable success of that TE type ala Graham, Gronkowski I don't mind waiving goodbye to Davis. Logan will be a poor man's Graham/Gronk and I'm fine with that given the talent spread throughout our offense at the skill positions.

Honestly, I'd rather have an upgrade at RT over Davis at this point.
