  • Well let me put it this way. Everytime someone ran for a TD against us I would see andra davis laying on his back in the endzone.

  • Could pad the tackle stat line - DQJ? - but wasn't a playmaker and DQJ is better. Not much mind you but one had a contract up. Great guy.

  • That's cool, thanks guys. He's been an excellent run stopper so far.

  • Andra Davis in the 4-3 as a MLB would be a solid player. In the 3-4, he will eventually show you his weaknesses. He seemed to get considerably worse each year he was here. If the 2008 Andra Davis were here instead of Eric Barton, Peterson would have ended up with 220 instead of 180.

    i'm not so sure about that statement az. Barton still has a LOT yet to prove.

    Dman, he's one of the best LB's in the league in the snow>>>for certain. he keeps his footing and has great balance and quickness in it, it's uncanny. so if you get a few inches of the white stuff that's where you'll really see him shine and have his best games. he's also a phenomenal teammate and will never throw anyone under the bus either. a real pro.

    we'll certainly miss you as a person Andra. good luck against your former NFL alma mater this weekend.

  • All of Andra's tackles were 5-7 yards after the LOS. He also made weak tackles

    The road to .500...

  • Bottom line --- you have a good, young, smart, aggressive, average LB that should serve your team well.

    He makes plays underneath when he can, but don't expect much behind the LOS. Sure tackler, good in run support, and once in awhile can surprise in pass capabilities. Big and strong, we always wondered how he got beat at the point of attack, but damn if that didn't happen all the time.

    My take: I hope he finds a way to make some plays at the LOS.....but not against us, which I really doubt will happen with Andra.

  • He was TOO SLOW! Like molasses, and he cant wrap up, just hit

  • Exactly Davis's glaring weakness has and always will be his speed and the fact that he isn't very physical, which is crucial for a 3-4 MLB. At this point in his career he's a solid back up. Great character guy but nothing to write home about.

    Slow Ur Role Jabroni!

    Hey guys, thought I'd talk some football with the opposition this week.

    What is your guys' opinion on our LB we picked up, Davis. So far I've seen an excellent leader and run stopper on first and second downs. He is everything we did not have last year in our LBs, he wraps up, can tackle, and is a great run stopper.

    What's the reasoning he was let go? A liability in the pass game?

    He was mediocre on, arguably, the worse team - and Defense - in the NFL.

    30 is young? Hell if he was a RB he'd be in the junk pile
