Interesting. Can he do KR or PR? Get Tramon off of PR.

I would welcome him in for sure, he is definitely capable of being an impact player in this league when healthy. My concern is just that, his health. If we evaluate him and he is good to go, I would give it a whirl.

Another concern of mine would be the learning curve that comes with being a part of our offense. Would it be anywhere near as extreme the wait has been with Nance? If so, maybe just stick with what we've got. Jackson has been solid as of late and now we have Starks to start grooming. Idk.

If true, a small move that could pay huge dividends. Also, good luck to Nance, we hardly knew ye.

Disappointed we didn't pick him up. A lot more talented than Nance, who is never going to be a factor on this team. I liked Davis out of Clemson.

Who knows if he has more talent than Nance? How many times have you even seen Nance run the ball in the NFL? :P

I think you are overrating him a bit, considering he ended up on someones practice squad. If he had a lot more talent than anyone who is on an NFL roster at RB, I think he would be capable of making a team instead of a PS. ;)

I'm basing it on what the two looked like in college. Davis' main issues have been injuries, but yes, I believe him to be more talented than Nance.

No loss. Not a tough runner, not overly fast, can't pass block. He should have come out as a junior when he might have gone in the top three rounds.

Really? I find that Interesting because I heard Nance actually ran well behind one of the worst o-lines in D-1 last year....besides Davis is on a PRACTICE SQUAD....anyone can have him anytime they want...
