Maybe if we play him early in the season.

By season's end last year, he couldn't handle a full starter's load anymore. We were runningback by committee at that point.

I thought the same thing.

It seemed like Davis was out of gas when it came to the last games of the season. 

There was something about it that I just couldn't put my finger on, it was as though he was getting out of shape by then end of the season.

2 years $5.5M total; a bit surprised we didn't want to match that but we can probably replace him for cheaper with a later round pick in the draft or a different FA. He filled in admirably this past season but isn't a guy who should be your #1 (which he is in Atlanta as of now...).

Ya that sounds like we way lowballed him or didn’t even offer and he decided to go in division. That’s less than the 6M we paid him for one(technically 1.5) seasons.

Had some nagging injuries that were bothering him which took its toll by year end. I don’t think he was able to even go the last game

      This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one.

      I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.
