I hope so. Davenport is going to be a stud now that the injuries are behind him. He's looked great so far in his limited time.

Hmmm don't agree.

Guy has been extremely underwhelming.

For the phenom athlete he was pegged to be, he has not lived up to any kind of hype.

12 sacks in 37 games, roughly 1 every 3 games, which makes around 5 sacks a season. Not the guy that 2 first round picks should be spent on.

He's played hurt. That turf toe was hindering at minimum. While his sack counts might not be high his pressures have been among the leaders. He has shown flashes of brilliance when healthy. There's a reason why his fifth year option was picked up. He's also been used more in run defense than in passing situations.

Same here.

From reading up on Turner, he started off at DT then transitioned to DE. Guy can play both positions. Key word here is versatility … considering we lost Sheldon, Brown & Hendrickson.
