Davis is a good special teams player, but most years due to his availability you could totally make the argument his roster spot would've been better used elsewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except I forgot who it was. Otherwise, I would definitely tag them right now. I cant help you as I dont hang on to such observations. My take? Until somebody replaces Davis for ST's....he's on my team. He came into last season having to "step up" in the WR department. That didnt happen and he faces the same challenge this TC. Regardless, he's been the most productive ST guy (outside Janis's gunner skills) for awhile now - and I value that production. Somebody beats him out - somebody beats him out - but IMO - till somebody does that, he's on my roster. Our ST's last year stunk w/o him.

All just a hunch, but Kumerow will finish no worse than 3rd in TDs this year among WRs, but I think he'll push or pass MVS in TDs. I think MVS more as a guy who will definitely have more yards and probably more receptions, but Kumerow will/should get a lot of redzone looks and more short-area TD opportunities.

He was third in the NFL returning punts with the worst special teams coordinator in the NFL and all of you sit there acting like that means nothing and I'm sick of the stupidity in that argument. Literally everybody here was screaming for every frickin year we need to fire Ron Zook because he sucks and yet Davis was third in the NFL in punt return average and you're all trying to act like that's nothing because Davis isn't a good wide receiver and it's that kind of stupidity that, if fans had gotten their way, would have cut Jarrett Bush and we would not have won the Super Bowl. You're gonna respond with some, "Average means nothing" by citing some stupid convoluted nothingness that means nothing when the reality is that Davis is not only very good at returning punts, he is also very good at covering punts and you're gonna act like it's stupid to keep special teams only performers while neglecting that literally every team in the NFL keeps plus special teams performers solely for their ability on special teams, and you're going to do this purely because you don't like Davis just like everybody else here, except you're going to use some misguided appeal to authority to suggest I'm the one who doesn't know what he's talking about because I get more animated than most people here. The vanity involved in hating on Davis and suggesting that he's not worth a spot when year after year he has gained that spot is just... It's hubris to another level that not even I can comprehend. Suggesting that it's stupid, suggesting like the very fact that Davis HAS MADE THE TEAM isn't proof in my point is just... It's juvenile, it's egregious, it's outrageous, it's preposterous and...

AND HOW DOES THIS EVEN MAKE SENSE? IT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE ANY SENSE! He was on injured reserve from September to November last year and then placed on injured reserve a week later you do know don't you that players on injured reserve do not count against how many players you can have on your roster, right?

Sure Davis is a good return man, as a gunner he's good too. Is that role valuable on the team? Absolutely. His most valuable aspect on ST is that he is a sucky WR. I'm pretty confident Jaire is easily a better return man than Davis, but who wants to risk a potential star DB back there? Davis will always have a good chance at the roster until we bring in a backup WR/RB/DB that can be as good of a returner as he is, unless GB feels comfortable rolling Alexander back there, then his roster spot could certainly be used on a better overall football player.
