I can't understand the jump when you sign Okafor and drafted Hendrickson in the 3rd. THE ONLY PLAUSIBLE reason for making this trade is that Davenport is a future HOF prospect. I see no more than a Renaldo Turnbull possible as less Courtney Brown. If he next Ricky Jackson pass the plate of crow I will eat it with a smile.

If they have proven anything is that they are willing to trade a pick next year in order to get a talent like Kamara.

After the past couple of drafts with Ireland... I have to say we may have the DROY.

And that could very well happen with Cam Jordan on the opposite side. Bradley Chubb, to whom Davenport has been compared, had three other defensive linemen lined up beside him that ALL went in the draft. Davenport did what he did on an island with little help whatsoever. Wait until he lines up with Jordan, Sheldon Rankins and a Tyeler Davison. He is going to see a lot of one on one situations that he's going to feast upon.

By this time next year the talking heads may be talking about how we stole Davenport in the draft. How about Defensive ROY and Super Bowl MVP?

Has any team had the DROY in back to back years?

Yes. The 2017-2018 New Orleans Saints. Seriously, no.

Edit:

It must be noted that one team did have co-DROY's in one year, however:

1980 - Buddy Curry, Atlanta, LB, and Al Richardson, Atlanta, LB

Would you trade trade Taven Bryant and Stephan Anthony for Cam Jordan?
I Would in a NY second.

The more I read about Davenport the more excited I am to see him in the black and gold. I love his demeanor. He comes across as a very intelligent hard working young man who is willing to put in the time to hone his craft. Who Dat!

Hoping Marcus and Cam bring out the chant! I believe we've got a great defense if everyone is healthy.
