Romfal Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 might be a good UDFA pickup...we definitely need to give JPW a run for 3rd QB spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Doktor Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Doing the due diligence. Got to turn over every rock, and check behind every bush. This is one kid I have heard nothing about. The type of player the falcons love to pick. Small school, good grades, clean nose, 4 year starter. And most importantly, flexible enough to play multiple positions.

Guest Negatorris Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 He ran a 4.4... Could be a developed into a solid backup.

#1 pick Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I liked him at times early. His accuracy reminded me of a young Warren Moon. His arm strength was good as well. His issue is consistency and he still need to develop as a QB. If a team is willing to develop him, he could be a stud depending on the personnel.

#1 pick Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Him and Jacory Harris both are low floor/extremely high potential guys. Usually these type of guys never get a chance or they play too early and never achieve anything. Sometimes like Tony Romo and some others, they do. Unlike JPW, he's worth a spot due to his potential. He can get better but he's still raw. He plays off natural ability, not with his brain. When you can transfer that like Warner, Romo, and some others did, you can become a special QB.

iDash Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 It would be a good idea to get a mobile backup QB behind this OL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1 pick Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Wild cat maybe?He doesn't play as fast as a 4.48 to be honest. He is really a guy who loves the pocket, think D.J. Stockey with more height, same arm, better accuracy, but not as polished or as elusive. I personally think D.J. never recovered from the injury the year Vick went to jail. He had the talent to be a decent NFL QB, nothing special but he wasn't far from someone like Josh Johnson or Troy Smith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1 pick Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 My big issues with Davis is:Throwing motionHis release could sharpen upHis footwork, it's awful, then again, RGIII had awful footwork in his Soph(RS) year and changed it.I really don't like his footwork, watching the Navy highlights reminded me again why I dropped him from my top 10. He was doing that all season, throwing without setting his feet. Part of the reason he was so inconsistent.consistency, it could be due to his footwork.His deep ball could add some touch to it.Has a tendency to rely to much of his arm when it's not that great as say someone like Matt StaffordWhat I like:He generally hit WR's in strideHe's extremely accurate. GAMER - He stepped it up when the competition was at it's highest.Good athleteHis deep ball looks solid, could use more touch.Really good in playaction.Really has improved from his time at BC, I always seen the talent but he came into college extremely raw. He really improved. Not to RGIII or Cam's level of course but to become a NFL prospect is an accomplishment. He has a lot of potential but his floor is very low. He could be overwhelmed early on by the NFL but in a year or two could be a stud in practice like a Tony Romo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1 pick Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 People ask me what do I not like about the spread in college football. My answer is always footwork. Most of the guys in it have poor footwork or at least needs great improvement at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#1 pick Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 He really need time fellas, then again, we give him the same amount of time as we gave JPW and Shockey, he could be much better than both combined. He actually has real talent but it will take some years. I like what we are doing in scouting. I like LaDarius Green from UL more than Orson Charles. Green really is a heck of a route runner and a great athlete for a TE. Charles is darn good but I am not sold on him.Here's an article of Davis which is also an interview:http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1074111-interview-with-ecu-qb-dominique-davis-i-have-the-biggest-upside-in-the-draft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big_D Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I was impressed by his video. He kind of reminded me of Vick and his ability to scramble when the pocket begins to collapse. He also has great ball control on long passes keeping the ball in a catchable zone. A talent that Ryan has problems with. Stop and think how many times the pocket closed on Ryan and he also collapsed. With this guy breathing down Ryans back, it should be the spark that gets Ryan back to his form that he used to have. If not.................too bad for Ryan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newgafatboy Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 yeah, i'd say he's accurate. at one point he was 14/14, later 30/32. but i notice a lot of his passes were behind the line of scrimmage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
