Sports Science- Vernon Davis

49er4life · 2009-07-11T17:47:42-07:00

I just watched Vernon Davis on sports science dragging two guys (360lbs) down the field. Did anybody ells see this? Man we need to get the ball into this guys hands and just let him run!!! I tried a search but couldn't find this posted anywhere, but sorry if I missed it.

we need to get the VD the ball for so many reasons not only is he a freak but we need to decide if he is our guy at TE long term. If not trade him for a mid round pick and let Walker have the position. I would be shoked if the team doesn't make a big effort to see what VD has this season a decision on his contract has to come soon and you have got to believe a guy like Davis is going to want his $.

yes he can pull all that weight. but being tackled and getting your legs taken out are factors they don't use.
if he can drag all that. what good is it if you cant catch the ball.

He can catch just fine, in fact. I will eat crow if you get the numbers and he is in the bottom percentage of the NFL in drops thrown to ratio.

Well, I will eat poo if VD has top ten receiving yards for a TE in the '09 sesason. I don't think VD will get much better after another season. I hope to be proven wrong.

Someone already did he research about his drops,he wasn't anywhere near as bad as the wr's we have had in the past few years.I think it was 07 stats and Battle led the team in drops followed by D-Drop,then VD if I remember correctly.Either way,with a TE friendly OC Vernon needs to show that he can be more than an overpaid blocker.I think that he should be given more crossing routes so he can get some YAC going.

he's gotta stop trying to juke people and just go full speed after the catch. I hate it when he thinks he's five feet with quick feet after the catch.
