I think Davis would provide more of what I like in a backup....more accurate, less tendency to make turnovers, experience playing in the NFL. The problem is, I believe that we decided long before preseason that Boykin was going to be our guy. If there was any type of actual competition here, they'd have allowed Davis to get some time in earlier in games. Unless this performance Sunday changed the Seahawks' mind, I think it's going to be Boykin no matter what.
The only way Boykin makes sense if you're Pete and John is if you think you can develop him into a viable starter than can someday either take Russell's place, or bring you a high draft pick via trade.
Does anybody honestly see that in Boykin? I don't. He's shown flashes, but he's also shown WAY more of why he went undrafted................wildly inaccurate and suspect decision making.
So to keep him on this team hoping he never sees the field for what, at best some future mid to late round pick? Doesn't make sense to me.
