He’s the bigger, slower version of DeSean Jackson

He’s a great big play, downfield receiver but he does not run a great route tree which prevents him from being a great all around WR.

He’s a fine #2. But Shannon Sharpe earlier this year said he’d be a #1 on 15 teams earlier this year. That’s laughable

Maybe he should skip the weight room a few times. I saw his headshot on profootballreference the other day and he looks like a goddamn fullback. Might gain some more agility without all that extra muscle.

Hes left the game injured in 3 games this season

he's been their number one with allen being hurt all year though as well

last year his numbers for a full season is pretty close to what davis in on pace for this season

devonta smith
half of 10 games under 40 yards


https://www.espn.com/nfl/.../id/3045138/mike-williams
mike williams
4 of 8 games under 20 yards and no allen for most of those games

- homiedclown

Smith has 52 catches on 70 targets. Which is a 74% catch rate

Davis has 33 catches on 61 targets which is a 51% catch rate

The 98 yard TD catch is really making his season look a lot better than it is

Williams has been hurt, and I disagree he’s been much better than Smith.

The problem is teams are double and tripling Diggs the last few weeks and Davis isn’t making them pay.

Either way, I think we can both agree this team needs another big time weapon

- sbroads24

What do you mean, he isn’t making them pay? He barely gets the ball thrown to him. Maybe he isn’t getting open, but Allen is gun shy. The picks are in his head or something. I don’t understand what the problem is. Earlier this year you see Allen throw the ball and camera would pan and there would be a receiver wide open 20 yards down the field. Now the camera doesn’t have to pan because Allen won’t throw the ball 10 yards beyond the line of scrimmage.

pats
jags
titans
texans
jets, maybe
ravens, for wr's
giants
bears
packers

I like washington's number 1 and dj morre so I can't put him ahead of them

johnsons laying an egg for steelers, so maybe there

he might be better than juju, again only wr's for the team

he would be 26th overall for yards from wr's instead of 19th overall if you remove that catch


that's still easily top 8 number 2 wr in the league, without that catch

he makes big plays, smith is a dink dunk wr

I would absolutely take Brandin Cooks who had 6 1,000 yard seasons over Davis.

I’d also easily take Garret Wilson over him. Davis would have 10 catches this year on the Jets

I’d also argue Mooney is as good. He’s on a team that doesn’t throw.

Diontae and Juju have had 100 catch, 1,000 yard seasons.

Kirk is also having a much better year with a lesser QB

if we are going on past performance, throw julio in the mix


this year, none of them are better than davis, and they are number 1's, he is a number 2

if your expecting 10 catches 100 yards from davis, he is not that wr on the team, diggs is

davis is a 4 for 80 yard game when the team is clicking

pretty good player for a late 4th rd pick and if he was that much better, we would not be able to afford him when his rookie deal expires

- Sabretooth9

Mahomes doesn’t have anything more than Allen. Mahomes has the edge on play calling, but that wouldn’t be the case if the Bills offense recycled plays that actually work. They have no problem recycling dumbass plays like QB sneak with zig motion so Davis can push Allen forward. Look what that did for them. Meanwhile, can’t call the rollout that they ran vs. Rams where Davis walked in the end zone from 40 yards out.

Are you actually arguing that if Davis played with Zach Wilson or Justin Fields he’d be doing just as well?

Mooney had 80 catches and 1,000 yards just last year.

His QB throws 10 passes a game. Ours throws 40.

Catching 50% of your targets isn’t good.

without looking at stats

my guess is 10 yard passes have a 75 to 80 percent sucess rate

20 plus yard passes, closer to 50 percent


maybe we should put davis in the slot to get his touches up

I was one of the first on the Gabe Davis train.

Remember when a certain village idiot tried to give me a hard time because I said he was looking “really good”?

He’s not an elite 2 or 1B. The drops and low catch rate have proved that this year

I threw drops out there as an issue


for catch rate, the guys that get 20 yards a play always have a much lower catch rate than the guys getting 10 yards a play


go up and down the 32 rosters in the nfl and you will not find 7 wr's that are better number 2's

allen has been off a few weeks now, does that come into play?

even his throws to diggs early on have been blah

I absolutely could but you wouldn’t agree

Hollywood Brown
Brandon Aiyuk
Jaylen Waddle
Tee Higgins
Chris Godwin
Tyler Lockett
Chris Olave
George Pickens
Mike Williams
Devonta Smith

I think you could’ve added Jahan Dotson to that list if he didn’t get hurt

Also, when Jameson Williams is healthy I’d absolutely take either him or Amon Ra St. Brown over Davis

Juju was considered a top 3 slot receiver before losing his whole year to injury last year

He’s on pace for almost 1,000 yards this year and he’s missed a game

MVS in Green Bay was literally what Gabe Davis was his first two seasons

Deep threat that caught 30-35 balls a year

literally the day davis catches 4 of 5 balls for 40 yard, the shorter routes, is the day you want to piss on him

so today playing the roll of other guys you mention, he catches 80 percent of the balls

the team was hot 6-1

they played the last 5 games 3-2
they run the ball more
allen is hurt
mckenzie had his game today so davis was the 3rd option'

I am happy, we won
oliver looks more like donald than marcell dareus


if the bills go 3-0 over the pats, jets and fins the next 3 weeks and davis gets 160 yards and 3 tds over those 3 weeks does this go away or become ror part 2


I kid

happy thanksgiving
