If anything, I'd like to see Davis traded if a spot is needed. He'd bring more interest from other teams and I'd be surprised if he doesn't get another strike for weed within 2 years.

Davis is exactly the kind of player you don't want to trade. He's young, homegrown, and about to breakout in a big way with RGIII now at QB.

I share your concern about his being one strike away from being suspended for a full year. But what is Shanahan to do about him? The Skins must have talent to win and players like him don't grow on trees. As nervous as I am about a possible relapse by Davis, I think that keeping him is a risk that's worth taking.

Also, if Cooley can stay healthy (obviously, I don't believe that Chris is done in D.C.), we have some insurance for a year or two if Davis should be suspended again.
