Default TE/DE Kellen Davis and this mystery team?

From Draft Daddy (who else):

Quote:
Michigan State's 2-way star (TE/DE) Kellen Davis' interview with a 3-4 team was interesting. He was asked defensive questions, even though he is grouped into the tight end group. Apparently this A.F.C. East franchise, which runs the 3-4 base defense, thinks his versatility is a key and they wanted to know if he would do some outside linebacker position workouts at his pro day since he wont be doing them here.
---

I find this prospect refreshing in that he's a later round projection (5?), and detours us away from the tiring focus of the #7 pick. Not only does BB like versatile players, this player has lots of upside and athleticism which makes him a solid developmental prospect. Has some negatives, but if he has the desire, at 6060 262 running a 4.65 and 4.60, he represents a strong RZ presence and downfield option for Brady.

I'd rather have Cottam, but as a R2-3 projection, it's wise to explore other TE options later on, freeing up the early rounds for other positions.

Could the team be the Jets? We know how much Billy boy loves his versatile players, but to give Mangini some credit, he's also aware of how valuable versatility can be, and he hasn't been afraid to try something different.

Exactly. That's why it's open to discussion -- correct?

Davis is now moving up the draft boards fast after dominating the skills portion for TEs at the combine. He is one athletic dude. It prob was us that was asking him that stuff, but, im sure Mangini is now on to us and will prob draft him ahead of us.
