I understand he has questionable decision making but he is a larger receiver. The Skins did not use him enough last season before he got hurt.

Both seasons he was on pace for 1600 yards before the ACL tear and the suspension. While I’m sure everyone in DC would like to see him on the field for a full season, the idea that he has somehow not proved himself is completely fallacious.

On top of the that, she isn’t a “madam”, alleged or otherwise. Either way, it’s universally acknowledged Davis is not at fault. The only thing he’s guilty of is being a celebrity with money that can be extorted.

Though I thought Logan Paulsen played just as good in relief–their per-play advanced stats were about equal–so glad the ‘Skins resigned one quality TE at least.

From what I understand, I don’t think the Redskins are even offering a one year deal, not yet anyway, until they see how he’s rehabbing. I wonder if there’s some issue we don’t know about, because such a great receiving TE should get more interest than this.

“he’d like (to) remain to the Redskins”
“when the two (me workd) out together at the team’s headquarters”
The quality of this blog going down hill fast!

Fred started to come into his own last year. Unfortunately between the injury, the suspension, and the spat with the alleged madam in court, I’m just not sure he’s right for the team any more. I hope he can turn it around, but I haven’t seen him start to on any of those levels yet. And, I’m a Skins fan so I’m not just hating.

Cleveland will sign him to a mega-deal and through in a wheel chair made by Rolls Royce!

Would be nice to see him play with a good QB. I’m really surprised no one has taken a look at him. I know hes got off-field issues but guy can play ball.

Washington is the place were he can best reach
his potential.

I think you need to take what they are offering now; they aren’t going to negotiate against themselves! Do a one year “show me” deal if you feel like you are getting ripped off.

 I completely agree! I want Fred back but he is on his last strike in the leagues illegal substance policy. Fred says he was tested twice within a month and the THC levels in his blood had receded but the league didn’t allow for them to flush out of his system. He and Williams have both ” quit the chron”. Sign him up. But not on a big contract just yet. Let’s see how his Achilles has healed up and go from there NEXT season. One year deal this season
