Mailbag: Can Davis be the Answer at RB

[TheMarathonContinues]

I’m fine with bringing him to camp and battling it out with Pollard and a draft pick. But it should still be priority to upgrade that position in the draft.

Phillip Tanner.

Next.

Steal this guy....averaging 5.1 behind an ASU o-line is all I need to know about future success behind a decent o-line...and he has burst!!!

While it's difficult to predict how Malik Davis might perform in the long run, I don't think there's any question that he was excellent in his limited role in 2022. Of course, he'll be obliged to compete with whomever the Cowboys draft in the days leading up to the upcoming season. How he fares in that environment will likely determine how he's seen as a potential starter, or maybe, as a useful backup. His talent seems to be satisfactory if he's able to improve his blocking skills. That's always a necessary factor to qualify as a professional NFL RB.

Hes undrafted.

Mostly because he is slow. Adjusted 40 time of 4.6x.

He’s a bubble player. Probably gets cut after camp.

Excellent is an exaggeration.
