JaWill Davis

how did you all think he looked? I saw him and Russell Shepard in place of Latimer. Davis seemed to get open a handful of times and looks pretty athletic in space. Anyone think we have something here?
Eh

Hard to say, we cranked out 31 points and he made a few grabs but that's his job. Although a UDFA making it into the game and doing his job in week 5 is pretty decent progress. Basically I have said nothing, but I have nothing to say and I'm off work today so I feel the need to type.

early to tell, but he looked good on the few chances he got. He has 4.33 speed, and supposedly ran good routes in college. He was also apparently one of the last cuts. I still think coming from a small school he probably needs a year before we can expect regular contributions, but I liked what I saw yesterday.
Gettelman is known

for finding small school gems (I wonder if he was one of the scouts that identified Cruz in '10) but Davis just looks smooth out there. I am optimistic and his speed is intriguing. Where did it say he runs 4.33?
I think he ran under 4.4 at his pro day - so it's not the same as

combine results, but still very fast. Also I've read he runs good routes and is pretty strong.
He made two grabs, didnt see any drops.

but there was one route, he had a step on his man deep and Eli missed him. Would have been a good grab. PHysically he looks like he can play at this level, he's not a skinny kid. I like his upside. Keep giving him a few snaps per game.
Can he be our PR specialist

We definitely need one.
He was wide open deep

on one reception, but if he continues to run, instead of reaching out, I think he scores. Anyway, he didn’t look too bad.

Not Davis, sorry thought you meant Russel Sheppard
Thought his K/O returns

were ok. He hesitates a touch as he gets near the scrum. Ron Dixon was the best. He picked his hole and exploded through it. No hesitation.
I think once he gets used to NFL speed he may be pretty good.
