Only downside is if the WR they pick torches us for the next 10 years Any thoughts?

I really like Davis and hope he returns to Dallas. But the skinny on him is he has always wanted to be a starting safety and not strictly relief and special teams and that may be what he is shopping for.

He left Dallas because he knew that Roy Williams would always be ahead of him on the depth chart. So Davis signed a contract in Miami last summer to reunite with Sparano, Ireland and Parcells (Parcells absolutely loves this guy). But Davis got CUT and did not make the final-53 man roster in Miami. So he returned to Dallas and back to special teams.

He still wants a starting gig, and then Dallas releases Roy Williams and you would think that Davis would get his shot, right? Wrong, Dallas signs Gerald Sensabuagh.

Thing is Davis is a stand-out Special Teamer with EXCEPTIONAL leadership on the ST unit. But as eveidence by the Dolphins and Cowboys, he is not a starter.

I think Washington has a certifiable GEM in Doughty and they should not hinder his continued development by putting a career special teamer in the mix with him.
