With five 100 tackle seasons to his credit and a 90 tackle, 3.5 sack season last year, Bills newest LB Andra Davis is a quality signing for another reason.
His tackles do not come five to eight yards downfield. They made at or close to the line of scrimmage. That according to FootballOutsiders’ Aaron Schatz, who criticized the Denver Broncos for releasing a linebacker that had good figures in their statistical tackle breakdown.
