VONTAE DAVIS RUMORS & GOSSIP

Grading the Draft: Indianapolis Colts

Without a 2nd-round pick in the 2013 draft thanks to the Vontae Davis trade, the Colts found themselves with just two of the first 120 overall picks.

Vontae Davis observes tampering and posts about it on Twitter, claims it was hackers

Indianapolis Colts cornerback Vontae Davis is not very smart, there is just no way around it.  Tweeting about your friend and the Kansas City Chiefs potentially tampering is one thing.  Yes, it’s bad, but it’s not nearly as bad as trying to claim that you were hacked after the fact.  ”Hackers” don’t go around on Twitter and get into NFL players accounts to try and get...

A Closer Look at Newcomer Vontae Davis

The Value of Draft Picks: Why Vontae Davis Was a Good, but Expensive Pickup

In the NFL, GMs value draft picks extremely highly.  Moreso, probably, than they should.  This past offseason, Asante Samuel was traded for a 7th round pick. Now, Samuel has his limitations, and is not a particularly strong tackler, but he's one of the better corners in the league. Last season, only Darelle Revis had a better (lower) opposing quarterback passer rating when...

The Miami Dolphins new coaching staff has only been around for about 8 months. It’s pretty clear that Vontae Davis hasn’t made a good impression with them.

Vontae Davis late, hungover, and called out by Dolphins’ Marshall

The Miami Dolphins got their first win of the season on Sunday and improved their record to 1-7.  Sadly, in this unpredictable season, the Dolphins first win wasn’t the big story of the day.  Perhaps the Dolphins first win of the season came at just the right time, because it appears the Dolphins locker room [...]
