BigDaddyBills Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3380976 ASHBURN, Va. -- Washington Redskins second-round draft pick Fred Davis did not show up for minicamp practice Sunday, prompting the team to send security officials to find the tight end. "Everybody was scouring," coach Jim Zorn said after practice. "Nobody heard from him, so there was one of two scenarios. Either there was some real trouble and we needed to find him, or he screwed up. I haven't even got to talk to him yet. I know he has been found. I believe it is more in the 'I screwed up' category." The team was expected to give more details on Davis' absence later Sunday. Davis was the 48th overall pick out of Southern California in last weekend's draft. He and the other rookies were staying in a local hotel during the three-day minicamp that ended Sunday.

DrDawkinstein Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 good thing we didn't draft him then Even though I would have supported it at the time. thats the good part of bringing rookies to Buffalo. no one goes AWOL just for Dave & Buster's
ax4782 Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Yet again it looks like our FO was right. Fine is working hard in the OTAs and is making a solid impression blocking and catching the ball. Looks like Davis is another typical Dan Snyder "Me" player.
DrDawkinstein Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 contract issues maybe? i think i heard Benson did the same thing in Chicago. edit: lol not quite the same thing, no Benson pepper-sprayed and arrested
In space no one can hear Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 contract issues maybe? i think i heard Benson did the same thing in Chicago. And- Benson turned out to be a complete "turd".
Steely Dan Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 contract issues maybe? i think i heard Benson did the same thing in Chicago. edit: lol not quite the same thing, no Benson pepper-sprayed and arrested When will these guys get a clue? The new Commissioner is cracking down hard on these mooks and you'd think the players would think before acting.
DrDawkinstein Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 i love this time of year when all the spoiled brat players have to return to work and some just cant make the transition back...
the_franchise Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 according to PFT he was found - he had overslept I bet he "overslept"
In space no one can hear Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 per Rotoworld: Rookie TE Fred Davis failed to show for the third day of Redskins minicamps Sunday because he overslept, according to team officials. Coach Jim Zorn said afterwards that the team was still gathering information on Davis' whereabouts, but they did track him down. "I'm very disappointed,"

BillsWatch Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 that is the question. Malcolm Kelly (the WR) was late and dogging it so that might explain part of it. They were reported out together partying night before in some blogs.
Búfalo Blanco Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 overslept with whom? Sounds like Jessica Simpson is making the rounds in the NFC East...
nucci Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 It sucks lately. As fans we get all excited for just a damn rookie mini-camp and most of these guys are going to take the money and just don't care.
