After signing him to a 2nd round tender ($2.5M), JAX just cut him. He's 6'2" 270, a little short, but has the profile of a Marinelli DE (was playing some OLB for JAX too). He was drafted in 2012, and has 10 sacks in last 2 years. More than we can say for many of our unproven DE's. Also, according to Pro Football Focus: "Davis only played 250 snaps last season, but he made the most of them. He finished with 3.5 sacks while earning PFF's 19th-highest pass rushing grade among 4-3 defensive ends. Davis turned 27 last month." This is exactly the kind of young DE (like Irving) that we should snatch up sitting at #3 on waivers.

 
Wrong Jags DE IMO. Pick up Tyrone Holmes. Had a great pre season and puts pressure on the QB.
Like him too, but Davis has been in the league 4 years and can step right in. Holmes is smaller (250lbs) and a rookie. More of a developmental guy. But can't argue with his production in FCS and this preseason. Would be happy with either.

Forget him. He is not subject to waivers which means he is a free agent and we have whiffed on most we have made a stab at lately.
 
Like I said in the Holmes thread, OScandrick is the team leader in sacks with 9.5, so we need some help......sign em both

Great call, I hope with the increased playing time we give him it will show jags made mistake ! Routing for this kid
 
He looked pretty decent at the end of the game when they finally put him in.
