Neither can block worth a damn (though Winslow, at times, looks like he understands the concept of blocking) and neither is worth anything in the running game. Davis has the better receiver skill set but Winslow is better running pure TE routes. I'd go with Winslow, maybe.

You are a complete idiot for that statment. Davis is a great blocking tight end. The 49ers coaching staff is always raving about his blocking skills as do many nfl analysts. Make sure you do some research about a player before you criticize them so harshly next time

No, he's not really a "great" blocking TE, he's average blocking TE with lots of potential as a great blocker.

I cheerfully rescind my comments...partially. I guess my opinion of his blocking is mostly from his ability coming out of college and the smattering of games I saw last season.

I've seen a little bit more of his blocking since and while I still don't think he's one of the better-blocking tight ends in the league he's definitely better than I gave him credit for.
