Sounds like a pretty good pick up to me.

nice special teamer and adds nice depth.

Fins sign ex Poke Keith Davis

:)I guess our special teams will be much better next year. He will also compete fo a starting job at safety.

Lol... We now give you the Miami Cowboys... I wonder Dallas players we will try to get?

All in all sounds like a good solid ST's pickup

Took them long enough to get it done - this was a lock the day the Cowboys season ended. Glad that we're adding depth and taking care of business on special teams - I'm more than tired of being the worst in the division in that department.

Okay, what are we going to do, build a roster entirely made up of special teamers?

from what I heard, he is as bad as a defensive back as he is good as special teams player. reminds me of Cam Worrell. and one thing we learned last year is that we are absolutely screwed if we have a Cam Worrell playing signifcant time at safety.

Dolphins agreed to terms with S Keith Davis, formerly of the Cowboys.
Davis, 29, is a special teams ace with experience in the secondary, though he's never been a playmaker at safety. He's coming off a torn pectorals and shouldn't be a candidate to start. It's another depth move by Bill Parcells.

"Davis, a Texas native, has a strange history of getting shot"

Didnt see that coming whe I read the article.

That's what they say in Dallas - but truth be told, they've got a plethora of riches compared to us at the position. Davis isn't Sean Taylor great by any stretch of the imagination, but I'd sooner have him than Worrell.

I'm wondering why the poor dude is getting shot all the time.

We got rid of the Cam/Mueller junk and we're rebuilding this team from scratch, and that also includes signing depth players who can play special teams.
