ORIGINAL: SAMiller711r Regarding Wyatt Davis, I read the other day, and I apologize for not having the link, but the story was that Davis was a Spielman pick. The article said that at least two scouts didn't even have him graded as a backup.(Implied they were Viking Scouts but who knows) However, Spielman wanted him and that was that. Would certainly understand if that caused friction with Zim. He's got a starter QB he doesn't trust, a third round QB that he hates, and now high round guard that apparently can't Crack the lineup. The thing about Davis is concerning to me if true wyatt davis is a guy that nobody, but people in here, talk about...he was rated as a 2nd round pick on many scouting sites, and by mock draftniks...his NFL prospect grade was 6.24 = average starter...he's a big dude, and was honored in college.... 2019 - first-team Associated Press All-American and first-team All-Big Ten accolades 2020 - first-team AP All-American and all-conference selection thedraftnetwork listed him as Starting Right Guard, Plug & Play bleacherreport named him #37 of their top 300 draft prospects - we picked him at #86 Above-average athletic ability and quickness. Physical player with a nasty demeanor; looks to finish and dominate his opponent. Stout anchor; does a nice job creating force through the ground to throttle down the momentum of the bull-rush, strain, and reset his hands underneath the frame of rushers to maintain control. nflmockdraftdatabase - overall ranked at #55, with 37% of mocks having him drafted in the 1st round sure, it's possible that everyone was wrong - happens all the time, but knowing what we know about last season's mike zimmer i think we have a reason to be guardedly positive.... Last year PFF site had him as a late 1st rounder. yes, there you go.... wyatt davis is either contending with jesse davis at right guard, or Bradbury at center...hopefully he can beat one of those two out for a starting job....
