Vernon Davis?

We need a second WR and a DE over another TE

Daseal · 02-20-2006, 06:53 AM

If we're moving up I definitely wouldn't look for a TE. While Davis is a great player, I think Robert Royal, even though he's had some bad games, and even that undrafted Auburn TE (who we may have cut, I don't remember) are serviceable at that position. As for the pick, I'd take the best DE/WR on the board, unless there was a CB on the board that seemed to drop far too far.

This draft is all about trying to give the Redskins depth in the future. I don't think we really need another WR with Patten around, and if we get one get a big boy. Rod Gardner minus drops.

Why is everyone so high on Patten...he's mediocre at best and he doesn't complement Santana. We need a big, physical possession WR.

Sure he complements Moss. Anyone who can keep defenses from doubling Santana 100% of the time complements him very well!

patten in the lineup = 80+ more passing yards per game believe it or not.

Davis is insane. The guy just ran a 4.38 at the combine. Guy should play Wideout. Heres his lifting stats at Maryland

Bench - 460
Squat - 650
Power Clean - 350
Verticle - 40 Inches

What a speciman

I saw that on NFL.com and thought that it must have been a misprint. His stock might have shot up into the top 15 of the draft. Jesus, a tight end who can run a 4.38? He is faster than little Moss. A 40-inch vertical? What is this guy on?

That Guy · 02-27-2006, 01:37 PM

why isn't he rated as high as KWII was? I mean, its not like davis is a soldier going out and injuring himelf on curbssides... If i needed a WR though, I think i'd take him over Santonio holmes.

I think a lot of it with KWII was, to take nothing away from him, hype. You had people making comparisons to him and his dad, who revolutionized the position. Also, the fact that he came from the much heraled "U" I think added to how many rated him as an NFL prospect.

Davis ran a sub 4.4 40. that's insane. he should be a top ten pick and will have an immediate impact. MD players are well coached and have excelled at the next level. Merriman, Foxworth, even Novak. We should look at moving up to get Davis and Dqwell Jackson in the 2nd. what about trading ramsey and our second rounder for the jets first rounder?

um, ramsey is worth a 4th or a 5th, our 2nd rounder is #52, the jets have the #4 pick. that's NEVER happening. We'd have to give basically every pick this year and a starter to get into the first round. Not to mention, how do you trade your 2nd round pick and ALSO use it to take D'Qwell?

sounds like UMD homerism :P

i was just kidding

That Guy · 02-27-2006, 02:00 PM

I just can't believe more hype wasn't given to his character issues. the dude's an idiot.

I think davis is a better TE and can almost guarantee his first two years will be better than KWII's :P

That Guy · 02-27-2006, 05:50 PM

if you look at him as a freakish WR he looks much better (since TEs are generally taller with better ups).

offiss · 02-28-2006, 01:05 AM

I tell you what Davis could be a WR he's that good, I would love to see a CB try to match up with him on the outside, near impossible, this guy would carry both the football and a CB into the end zone, may be second coming of John Mackey, only faster. 4.37 at 6'3" and 255lbs I would love to get this guy but I know it wont happen, but this guy is going to be devastating!
