Re: Fred Davis Bye Bye

This is a dumb question but is it a done deal that Davis is gone? Have the skins released him??

He was on a one year deal so he's due to be a FA.

Re: Fred Davis Bye Bye

it's still banned under the cba, so they won't, or they won't have any traction. when they redo the cba though, i wouldn't be surprised if it's brought up.

Re: Fred Davis Bye Bye

It doesn't matter if the entire US makes weed legal. It's within the rights of the NFL to ban its usage. Many of the drugs on their PED list are over the counter stuff that is legal and yet it is still banned.

Legality of the drug is really irrelevant.

Yea it's the same thing with freedom speech and people that think your employer can't do anything when you say something that makes the company look bad.

People seem to confuse the role of businesses and law.

Re: Fred Davis Bye Bye

I'm on record calling Davis a lousy pick in 2008, and I've been a frequent critic since then. Good riddance.

Over the past few years, I have to believe that we have one of the worst draft history's in the NFL.

Which begs the question: If the majority of these misses were recommendations from Scott Campbell, how does he still have a job? The story that Vinny was overruled on Jamaal Charles with the Malcolm Kelly pick would seem to indicate that Kelly was the choice of Snyder, with possible advice from others.

The issue is front office guys like Campbell haven't been listened to enough over the years, something that is supposed to change now.

Re: Fred Davis Bye Bye

The problem is the Redskins are not patient with young players.

We draft players to let them go. we have focused on the next free agent that we brought in instead of development and depth.

This.

Belichick wins every year with no-names because he develops talent. We need to follow suit.
