Why Did We Draft Fred Davis?

Same goes for us, CC is the man and FD just can't get on the field..

If Cooley wasn't on the team, Davis would be shining right now.

I almost forgot creating this thread two years ago, but it's still very relevant. A backup TE was not a luxury we could afford with more pressing needs, especially O-line depth, or lack thereof, that still plagues us to this day. I'm not saying that Davis can't be a productive player, we saw what he can do when Cooley was injured, but as long as CC is healthy and producing, Fred Davis is about as useful to this roster as a backup punter.
