Dolphins are finalizing a deal with former Jets S Ashtyn Davis.

If you look at the last 3 seasons he improved greatly in coverage. He’s allowed about 10 yards per target, 6 yards per completion, 1 TD, 6 ints, a completion percentage near 60%, and a QB rating against near 50. So I don’t know what you guys are talking about when you say he is a liability in coverage. His first two years he was terrible. Have you ever heard of player development?
I wasn't coming from that angle at all. I never heard of the guy before yesterday and was asking to learn more about him. I was just pointing out that I'd like to know if he prevented TDs as well as he made INTs. If you look further down the thread, I recognized his targets per TDs allowed was only slightly worse than Holland so I think it's a great signing.
 
Go look at Brandon Jones’ first two seasons in coverage and look at his improvement before Denver gave him starter snaps. It’s almost an identical situation except Davis is better than Jones in his limited snaps than Jones was in his limited snaps.

Now that's the glass half full approach the fins need. They lost that benefit of the doubt from me a long time ago ... but I do applaud the outlook and hope it works out like you think it will.

As usual, would love to be wrong about a FA the fins bring in that I don't like. Him taking plus starter snaps at FS makes filling out the roster that much easier.
