Does Your Opinion of Thomas Davis Change?

Just because I am curious...

There isn't a soul here that doesn't respect TD. He is the epitome of who you want playing on your team. He passes the eye test with flying colors and seems like a genuine, all around great person. I respect him. I adore his attitude and the way he carries himself off the field.

But.

Lets imagine that this decision was made because he wanted an extension, wasn't being offered one and he reached out to JR to express his displeasure. Lets imagine we get a "yes" man for a GM. Let's imagine that this extension starts a string of bad deals for aging stars and lets imagine we fall back into cap hell, and have no better than a 7-9 record to show for it.

Still think he should get the second statue outside of the stadium.  All TD has done in your scenario is let JR know he was unhappy.  If he's THAT respected in the organization that JR would fire the GM over it, you should think about all he did to earn that respect and it hasn't changed.  All the doomsday stuff you write about is from other people's decisions anyway.

Depends a bit on what part he played, if any other than just being less than thrilled overall. If he (or any other played) actually went to JR and whined then yeah, hella lame. If JR took it upon himself to make the move based on some reactions then not necessarily his (or any other players') fault.

No one has any facts. The entire front page of this forum is filled with people speculating. Sports talk is 100% speculation during the months of June and July. This thread is no different. We're here to discuss scenarios.

    • You all make some great points.  I love the OT Trapilo pick but it is a round too soon.  Tells me someone is doing their homework.  He is a solid pass blocking RT and we need pass blockers to keep Bryce nice. About S--I want an early S too, but Richardson was not bad when he played.  Most players improve the most between years 1 and 2.  There are some decent safeties in this draft later, so maybe I have been looking at the Corvettes in the showroom when I should have been kicking tires in the used SUV lot. Regardless, with Moton's knee concerns, age, contract, etc.  I really would like to see us draft a legit starting-caliber, second tier OT now.  I watched Trapoli at the Sr Bowl and he has really strong pass pro form.  33" arms (OK) and he is 6'8".  There are others I like as well: Cam Williams, Texas Donovan Jackson, Ohio St. Charles Grant, W&M Anthony Belton, NC State Emory Jones, LSU Our coaching staff just showed us how they can develop young players.  Wait until the third or fourth and get one of these guys.  Take a year to prepare them.  Sign BC to another 1-year contract for insurance.  If our OL coaches are an asset and they have a year to work with one of these OTs above, let them do their jobs. In that second round pick slot, maybe we can get that Safety--might have to move up a bit--I would not be surprised to see a draft day trade of Zavala.  If other teams were scouting us properly, they should have seen a potential starter buried on the depth chart.
