citigent Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 im not sure davis is the answer but looking at another rb isnt a bad idea, with cp's injury being a shoulder thats alittle worrisome that it could linger for awhile , and betts while i think hes a good back up he hasnt held up that well in the past. i like rock and he has had some bright spots but if it came down to him being the number one guy , id be worried a bit about that, so again some other option is a pretrty good idea imho.

docdru Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Davis contacted the skins not the other way around We are not interested Bram said that the skins like him very much but "it ain't happenin" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDMAN7 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Davis would be great in short yardage situations...I just pray he does not sign with Philly. That would be just plain gross! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCskins06 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Everyone is nuts about Lumsden. All he has done is scored a TD in a scrimmage. For the right price getting Davis would be low risk and high reward. He had alot of TD's last year and would save some pounding on CP at the goal line. Dude was a stud when he was here and I would welcome him back So far I would call Lumsden "injury prone" as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smurf85 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Wow i guess im lost here,but i thought we had CLINTON PORTIS.Why the hell would we get Davis.We would be stupid and i would be pretty mad.You want to pick some people up lets pickup some O-line depth.Unless someone found out that PORTIS is going to be out for the year.We should not be talking about this.:doh:I will be sick if we pick him up.

slackermike Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Davis isn't a Gibbs back simply because he fumbles too much. Wasn't that the knock on Earnest Byner? I might be wrong, so don't flame me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-O-G Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Looking like Davis is meeting Andy Reid to discuss a possible 2 year deal. front page on eagles website. This might happen if Davis passes the physical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passizle Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 For those interested in the full story: http://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/homeNewsDetail.jsp?id=53721 This should probably be moved to "Around the NFL" until/if something substantial says he is coming here.

SWFLSkins Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Stick a fork in him, he's done.......... I was thinking the same thing. Also I don't know if I could handle another one of his game changing fumbles. We have plenty of good backs on the roster already, I would not want to lose a Rock Cartwright to sign an over the hill Davis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Jones Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 And now the thread should die its just due death. Well, I mean, do you really think people will let this die? Human nature, and many posters on this board, indicate that they will ignore Andyman's statement of fact and continue to harbor hope that the skins will bring him in. Let's just wait and see.

MikeB Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 For what it's worth, if it hasn't been mentioned already 610 WIP mentioned the Eagles were taking a serious look at him. :eaglesuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
