All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Texans | A. Davis signed
Thu, 12 Apr 2007 14:19:15 -0700
ESPNews reports the Houston Texans have signed unrestricted free-agent WR Andre' Davis (Bills). Terms of the contract were not disclosed
Yet funny, when we eventually sign 2-3 special team scrubs, they will be considered great special team signings here. Like some 4th string LB from Detroit.
He was a big time asset to our special teams, I dont understand this at all.

I looked in the thread - no one said he was garbage and the other posters seemed to share your assessment of his ST prowess.
I think he'll get a chance to play offense in houston - good for him.

cant sign everyone and after we draft a wr most likely wouldnt have spot on roster
Wasn't he supposed to be the super speeder that was supposed to change the Bills offense?
Close. Big speed guy that was under utilized in New England.
Truth: every sucky player we have is a great special teams player. The guy couldn't break into a starting role, and that's sad. Kind of like Coy Wire and Josh Stamer.
Davis' main contribution to special teams was to force fair catches in punt coverage (all told he was credited with only 3 assisted tackles for the entire season). He had a lot of help from the gunner on the other wing (usually Jabari Greer or Sam Aiken).
On offense he had a total of 2 catches for about 12 yards.
He is a nice player to have around because of his speed, but he is very replaceable at a lower cost.
This guy was someone with a ton of potential out of VA Tech, drafted highly by Cleveland, showed glimpses of his potential...but then never could stay healthy. Apparently rested on his laurels in Cleveland and lost his roster spot to an undrafted FA QB turned WR.
After that he got traded to NE. And NE is all about guys who can contribute in more than one facet of "team." When NE didn't keep him, the writing was on the wall about his value and ability.
I'm honestly shocked that someone bothered signing him at this point in time.
Congratulations Andre on getting a paycheck out of another sucker.
