djfarr00 Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 From KFFL Free-agent TE Fred Davis (Redskins), who is going to visit the Buffalo Bills Thursday, March 28, said he was impressed with head coach Doug Marrone after having dinner with him last week. "I think when you meet him, just talking to him, he seems like a player's coach, down to earth and real and that's something with a lot of coaches you don't get a chance to see," Davis said. "He was really cool and all the things he talked about you can tell he's a humble guy that doesn't make choices because of money. It's more about what he wants to do in life."

djfarr00 Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 It sounds like the visit has been moved to Thursday, possibly to accommodate the Bills Brass being at the USC Pro Day. http://blogs.buffalo...-liked-marrone/ You'd think, but we skipped it - at least Barkley's workout.

At 80% he's still better than anyone we've had in the last 5 years You may want to check your numbers one more time on that. Davis averages 2.5 rec/game, 31.8 yds/game, .19 td/game Chandler averages 2.48 rec/game, 29.3 yds/game, .36 td/game

Best Player Available Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Bills twitter confirms that Davis is in the building today Wondering who brought the blunts?
Kelly the Dog Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Starting to make a little more sense to me. Chris Brown's story today implied that he already took a physical. Frad said in that interview that he was coming to Buffalo on Wednesday to take a physical. They probably spent most of the day yesterday with him, and had all the doctors and trainers go through him as much as they could. The fact that he is meeting again with the Bills officials at the facility today can only be a decent sign. If he stays the night again, there is a good chance IMO that he signs, and he checked out pretty well. IF they sign him, and it's still a big if, I'd imagine it would be for 3-4 years, and will sound like they paid him way too much. But ultimately will be an incentive laden deal based on playing time, and protection against both injury and muttonheadedness, in case he's back on the chronic. http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-2/Free-agent-TE-Fred-Davis-visits-Bills/bfa3d033-0e18-40f3-92ea-19e291b4197f
NFLBighits Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I'd say throw him a few pounds of 420 and offer him 2.5 mil a year should get er done and throw in some synthetic urine too !
White Linen Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Have you heard of Chris Cooley? Pro Bowl TE? Yes. How does that prove Davis at 80% is better than anyone we've had the last 5 years?
The Big Cat Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Yes. How does that prove Davis at 80% is better than anyone we've had the last 5 years? Because he put up similar numbers as Chandler while playing second fiddle.
BillsfanAlberta Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Because he put up similar numbers as Chandler while playing second fiddle. Not only did he put up similar numbers while being second fiddle he also did it while smoking a ton of pot
Cash Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Because he put up similar numbers as Chandler while playing second fiddle. Seems like the obvious solution is to take Davis' numbers only as a starter, multiply them by 0.8, and call it a day.
The Big Cat Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Not only did he put up similar numbers while being second fiddle he also did it while smoking a ton of pot Ha, well, the league does list it as a performance enhancer... Seems like the obvious solution is to take Davis' numbers only as a starter, multiply them by 0.8, and call it a day. 1.8, but yes.
BuffBill Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Bottom line is it would be a high risk/high reward signing. There is a huge chance that with his disciplinary issues and injury history, the signing could blow up in the Bills faces. There is also a good chance, that if he could stay healthy and out of trouble, he could be a multiple Pro Bowl type of player-big "If" though.
