pnies20 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Really liked Carl Davis coming out of Iowa. Had a great senior bowl if my memory serves me correctly. Big strong run stuffer type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant argue the value, but it just seems odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It be great to see what he can do when he is asked to be a 1gap DT instead of a 2gap DT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be @Mind Character has watched every snap of his since middle school 6-8 times though, right buddy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buno67 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I haven’t watched him play singles nap. Just went back and looked at the combine Numbers. All the numbers that say quickness an explosion. Point to david over Shelton. Also helps that A lot of NFL guys like this move because it’s giving Davis a chance. Got played by the numbers game with the ravens. They say He would of made the ravens if they were a 4-3 team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mind Character Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 @LETSGOBROWNIES Indeed good sir...... I watched All22 of Carl Davis' pop warner league snaps... everyone of them multiple times... the pop warner QB play was atrocious... the helmets were the size of their bodies... Even then... I knew Carl Davis was destined for greatness... in fact my B.I.L.. was in the stands scouting his middle school games... from All22 binoculars.... It wall came true... what a time to be alive... --------------------------------------------------------------- Seriously though... I liked but didn't love Carl Davis coming out of Iowa... his motor was just too inconsistent for me... and really bad at times.. I thought without such concerns he was 34 NT that deserved to be a top 25 pick... He has more pass rush explosion than Shelton, but coming out of college (I haven't watched Davis' development in the pros) he did not use his hands well consistently... A couple of years of pro coaching but unfortunately the techniques required to plug stuff up in 34... we'll see how it shakes out.... a lot of upside though based on his raw skills...

I’d argue motor for fat men can commonly be attributed to conditioning, which is alleviated as a pro with limited snaps as opposed to the outrageous snaps some college DL play. If his role is to fill shelton’s presence on run downs and rotate out, he may very well be able to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkronsWitness Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Would like to know what Breeland and/or Dansby is doing right now to take the spots of Carrie/Kendricks (if thats possible) Why isnt Breeland signed yet again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwibrown Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Dansby sucks way to old now. Couldnt run defend when he was here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant argue the value, but it just seems odd. Makes perfect sense to me. Shelton must have done something that didn't sit well with Dorsey. Since he was a Sashi guy, he gone. Davis, his replacement, is a Dorsey guy. Not saying it is fair, but you and I both know that is the way it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If sachi was here I dont think he would of used the 5th year option on Danny. His performance didn't warrant the initial or further investment. Exclusive run defense is old hat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg has never used DTs the size or skill set really of Shelton. Pretty sure the biggest DT he has ever had outside of Shelton was Brocker with the rams who is 6’5 325-330, where Shelton was 6’2 345. You look at Carl Davis being 6’5 315. Davis fits the mold of DTs Williams likes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
