I'm nervous.

Hopefully we'll beat them out for Davis like we did for Griffin. New owner though, so we'll see if he's as shy with the trigger as the last guy.

If Cleveland wants him they will get him, they have a lot of cap freedom and are poised to make some big moves.

I know it's early, but i don't like the THOUGHT of Trueblood, Pashos, or Compton starting at RT Wk. 1

Yup. If we lose Fred, its not the worst thing in the world. We had a potent offense without him for much of last year. Given all our other needs, TE is not a position worth breaking the bank for, especially not one coming of a major injury and one mistake away from a 1 year suspension.

We can get buy with paulsen and a cheaper, pass catching TE this year. Next year, we'll have plenty of money to splurge on"non-essential but "nice to have" guys like Davis.

Former second rounder who has had some shoulder problems but reported to play well when healthy.
I think this may be a decent signing.

I know he's (Fred Davis) from Ohio, but man, Brandon Weeden, or RG3??

You like them better or worse than Polumbus?

If I'm a TE, I'll take Weeden. That dude needs to dump off the ball a lot more. More catches. More stats.

When it comes down to it, it's mainly a money issue.

Wasn't Fred Davis leading the team in receptions when he got hurt.

Didn't we win 7 in a row without Fred? I want him, but can't overpay for a TE. Years 3-8 for RG3 is what the Skins should be preparing for. We can get by this year without him. Find some gems in the draft. And what the hell, Niles Paul? Step up!

It's Free Agency, the question is not Weeden or RG3. The question is more money or less money.

[donofriose]

If it costs to much to keep Fred Davis the Skins should let him go. The good thing about tight ends and receivers is you can find a lot of them outside the first round and they can do great for your teams. So he is replaceable to me, I do not want the Skins to let him go but in the NFL you have to set a value for a player (like the Patriots and Welker) and if they want more than that... goodbye.

Trueblood is a better pass blocker than Polumbus. It sucks that we don't have the money for Winston.

Let Fred walk if he wants a lot of money.
