^^Big fan of DD. Really think he will emerge as a weapon this year. They have a whole off season to design creative ways to get him the ball. Last year it was not even clear he would make the team and the focus was solely as a returner. This year, he will be better utilized as a overall playmaker.

We have a team that will run better, play action better, and protect the QB better.
Seems like the right recipe for a DD breakout season.

I certainly hope so. It would be a shame to waste his 4.35 speed.

NO NO NO - MORE is MORE!”

Davis will get plenty of reps in the O this season. Too dangerous not to.

If the new staff sees anything( and I do mean ANYTHING!) resembling a future NFL player, he'll make the OD roster. If not, then we'll know why.
TT was horrible......

Woods obviously got by on athleticism during college. His lack of football awareness really stood out every time he took the field with us. And as we can all agree, the last staff wasn't coaching anyone up.

If he asks for too much $$$, let him go for a comp pick...Trader Joe is a master at this...
