Mike Davis Signs 2-Year Deal with the Falcons

From what I've read, he is (at least for the moment) the starter in Atlanta. It's possible he chose the Falcons for that reason.

I honestly think that's a mistake.

Based on what I saw of him last year, he's much better suited to be a top end backup than a full time starter.

I thought Gurley was their starter? Is his knee that bad these days where he can't handle a starters load anymore?

Gurley is a free agent.

There was a rumor that we worked him out but it came from a phony source.

Oh I didn't even know he was a free agent. We should at least kick the tires in case especially since Davis is gone. Still though I guess perhaps the Falcons would have signed him back if they saw something worth keeping.

We won’t sign Gurley, he’ll probably get more than Davis from somebody

    • This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY. 
    • The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.
    • I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
