Cut Mike Davis

How does someone poo this post? Mike Davis shouldn’t be on the roster. WTF we still have him on a $3M for the year is beyond me. Do the right thing and cut him so he can find a job for the year. If we waste money on a guy who shouldn’t be getting any carries over Scarlett or Bonnafon then we as fans should be pissed. We paid him over $400k for 2 yards last year. We paid him $5,719 per inch. We don’t need to even bother acting like he’ll be on the roster.

Silly st, dont you know Davis is going to replace CMC cause he got injured. Then Davis will have the one of best seasons for RBs. Marty will tag him and sign him to top ten deal. History repeats its self!

I love the myth out there that Scarlett is good.  Had we not drafted him last year he wouldn’t have been drafted.  He wasn’t good at Florida and I don’t really see him being on anyone’s 53.  Bonnafon on the other hand is our number 2 RB, so it really doesn’t matter who number 3 is.   Davis has a lot of talent and can catch pretty well though.  He seems to fit joe Brady’s offense, so maybe that’s why they’ve held on to him.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
