Julie Donaldson of NBC Sports, who has good tie-ins with the Redskins, stated on Twitter that the team “wanted someone to play opposite Landon Collins”. It appears as though Davis could be that player. He’ll likely compete with Montae Nicholson, a player in a relatively similar situation.

Davis will have to be more consistent in D.C., as well as stay healthy, but he has a very exciting athletic profile, as well as an intriguing mix of experience and youth; he’s only 26 years old, but he’s already started 41 career games. It’ll be up to the Redskins coaching staff to glean production from his potential, and if they can, Davis could outplay his contract value.

I havent seen a lot of Sean Davis in the NFL (watched him alot w the terps) but it appears he is a more center field deep-ball safety and should match up nicely with Collins .. at least on paper.

5 M, 1 year ... I like the addition. Hopefully he can be an above average starter for us.

If he can make fewer boneheaded decisions on and off the filed, he'd be an upgrade from Nicholson.
