Official Redskins Free Agency Thread 2013 Part II

If we sign F. Davis great but if we don't I could care less. He & his agent is dragging this out way to long.

I prefer not to have people on our team with the attitude that he seems to possess. Grow up, stay out of the clubs & invest your time in your craft. Davis is the prime example of a player who will be broke shortly after being out of the NFL for a few years.

per Adam Schefter

Redskins free-agent TE Fred Davis is scheduled to visit Bills on Wednesday. Jets and Redskins also interested.


good luck with those teams Freddy

i smell a 1 year prove it deal right here

My understanding is that you can cut and designate a June 1st, but the salary cap space isn't freed up until the Jun 1st date. So that even if we cut someone early, we can't take advantage of any increase in cap space until Jun 1st. The designation is for the player's sake like you said, but the team still has to wait to use any freed space.

Gotcha.

If he does sign with the Bills or Jets it's definitely all about the money. And considering he's coming off an injury I don't see why either of them would give him a big money deal anyways, so he'd essentially be saying F the Redskins. Either that or he's using them as leverage in negotiations with us. If I were the Redskins though, I'd be asking him if he'd rather be playing with an unknown qb with the Bills, or whatever cluster**** will be starting at qb for the Jets, vs. playing with RG3. There's no way he thinks that either of those options are better than RG3.

I think Fred Davis has the potential to be a top 5 or even top 3 TE in this league. However, if he and his agent want to drag this out, possibly going to Buffalo nor the Jets...let him walk. Good luck with your career in those places. We are building something special here , if he is unwilling to stay...peace out. We basically won the division without him. This is more than just a team we are building, we are building a culture. Why would anyone choose to go to Buffalo or the sideshow Jets Oliver playing for a Super Bowl winning coach and with a stud QB AND leader in RG3? I'd rather ride with a dude like Paulsen.

Fred knows that if he is going to shine it is going to be here bc the Bills and Jets are a mess and so is the QB pool for the draft.

i agree with you all, Fred knows RG3 is his best option at qb by far from those teams, I also agree that he has the talent to be top 10, that being said I want him back but would not be heartbroken if he left. I think Griffin is good enough to make an athletic tight end that we could pick up in the draft look very good.

There is basically no market for Fred Davis. I mean zilch. He's stuck and he's knows it. Might as well sign a one year deal and hope for a bigger payday next year.

The Bills are a mess, but he could still put up numbers in their offense with F. Jackson, S.Johnson distracting defenses. He could go there, have a payday, put up some good stats, and then smoke his way out of the league.. Depends on what he wants to do.

Then again, if he wants to win games and play in a big market with $$ endorsement potential, he could sign with us, take a paycut x 1 year and then get paid big-time next year..
