Just to clarify, im all for Reed returning. Easily his best season last year. He is a much needed leader. I like him on special teams and in certain packages than put him in the box. But we need a starter to step up at the SS position.

Fred Davis sure looked pissed that no teams are pushing for him on NFL AM this morning. I think he is going to settle for a 1 year prove it deal.

I dont know what type of scrilla he expected, but the 1 year "prove deal" is en vogue ala Flacco. Davis needs to sign our offer in get in camp. Once we get done with the penalty, he will get paid.

I'm with you there. If he stays healthy, plays well this year, and becomes one of RGIIIs prime targets, he'd get a nice contract from the skins next offseason when we have money - not just to sign FAs, but to lock up our own guys to long-term deals.

After seeing that footage from the nightclub it's hard to muster up any enthusiasm for bringing him back, even if it's only for a one year deal. The guy is a scumbag and we don't need him in our locker room.

I was thinking you were going to use the term dirtbag there….

Lol, the funny thing is when I was typing that I thought something similar about 2 seconds afterwards. Most likely around the time I was typing "don't need him." Either way when Matty offered to let me modify my name a year or two ago I should have gone with Bag fan because the truth is I just love bags.

With his track record off the field and injury history...that is all he deserves.

Earn your keep, Fred. We know you can...just prove it.

artmonkforhallofamein07 · 03-22-2013, 10:48 AM

Yeah I gotta agree with you guys. Fred just has to many question marks to warrant a decent long term deal. He should just sign a one year deal and prove that he is healthy. I am sure that is what is holding up a long term deal more than the off field stuff. Teams want to make sure that achilles is good to go before they give him 5-6 mil in guarentees and a 4-5 mil/yr contract.

^ I disagree. Not every player is going to be a chior boy in the locker room and that incident happened 2 years ago. People make mistakes. Would you think it fair to not be hired because of something that happened two years ago and it wasn't characterized criminal ( no arrest). These are football players, not politicans, teacher, etc.

Bad example!

Well if it's between us and the Browns for Fred Davis, maybe Cleveland is moving on?

I don't think Cleveland was ever serious about him to begin with.

If they were, they would have had no problem paying him. They're in good shape.

Speaking of Cleveland...Cribbs was supposed to be traded to the Cardinals but they won't finalize the deal until his knee is 100%.
