But he has advanced and learned more DE moves? It's obvious his ability has improved in both the film room and on the field. He's now the main piece in the stunt game, and his role has expanded just like Rankins' did in his second season. he's being asked to do a lot more than his rookie year, and he's done it well through two games so far. Sure, there are still things he needs to improve on, but it's obvious what they worked on/focused on in the offseason and that he's picked up much of that pretty quickly.
Thats been my biggest ??? when anyone have brought up Davenport so far this year. His film has been good stuff. Not everyplay is designed to fill up a box score and I think thats where a lot of people can get caught up. Not knocking Coach Pete or anything, but Davenport is performing this year as he is being asked to. Coach gives some nice insight into athletic training. We'll see if he (Davenport) becomes that generational guy, but always thought that would take years to get him there.
