Thread: Rod Davis - Sleeper of the draft?

Am I the only one who has this gut feeling that Rod Davis is somehow going to be one of our best Line Backers? Maybe not this season but I just feel he will give the starters a run for there money. This guy has so many tackles measurable at the national level. Tackles is something us Vikes have lacked in the past. I am just very excited that we drafted him.

I agree Big C, he doesn't run a 4.5 or 4.6, and he had a rough showing at the senior bowl, otherwise he would have been been plucked in the late second or third. GREAT PICK!!!

I am also a very big fan of this guy, i wasnt so exited when we picked him but he lead the NCAA in tackles this past year and also had several tackles his junior and sophmore year he is very produtive, he ran a slow time at the combine but ran a 4.6 at his pro day so there u go he is not that slow just ran a bad time at the combine

I agree 100% he plays every play as it was the first. Shows alot of
intensity also a pretty good size fellow. Welcome aboard Rod- :thumbright:

he will contribute on D and special teams

I'm getting to like this drafting by productivity rather than potential. It sure did take a lot of Raonall Smith's to finally figure this out. I'll bet the Packers will never get it. :scratch:

From what I've read about him it sounds like he is going to be a good fit in our defence. I can't wait to see him play at the DOME :!:

I don't know if I can wait 4 more months!!! I'm gonna go crazy before football season starts again!

Gotta admit, Studwell seems to know his linebackers. We may have a few more SODs this year.

Im not sure how he will play, but it will be exciting to see how all the draftees will play
