Marcus Davenport - Vikings $13 Million Star Lacks Desire

Bradley Chubb.

And yes, you had a guy in house that produced but you let him walk for an unknown, often injured Davenport. I hear you Loomis fans all the time on how he magically makes cap space. He could’ve made it had they not thought Davenport was the answer.
Consensus was that year that the only edge rushing draft choices worth drafting high were Chubb and Davenport. Unfortunately, the Saints desperately needed an edge rusher that year and reached for Davenport. I don't recall if he had injury concerns in college, but he couldn't have played against elite competition. Decisions like that one have soured me on trading up and on drafting players from smaller programs.
