Why Did We Draft Fred Davis?

[SBXVII]

How about Kelly's analysis.....

Negatives: Lacks the short steps and quick feet, but does get good depth in his route progression with his long stride...Perhaps a product of the team's reliance on its ground game, he will disappear for long stretches

...A good blocker, he is basically a non-factor without the ball in his hands...Will usually run crisp routes but he will glide out of his breaks,

...Keeps his head on a swivel to locate the ball, but is more effective as a receiver in the open field, as he does not show the same burst as smaller receivers when catching in the short area

...Not really an explosive player, but does use his body lean and initial contact strike to create separation.


Those were just the negatives of both. They had a lot of positives. We are just not seeing them for whatever reason.
