keggerz Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/writ...ions/index.html As part of a settlement agreement between the NFL Players Association and the NFL, Redskins tight end Fred Davis and offensive tackle Trent Williams have received four-game suspensions for violating the league's substance abuse policy, multiple league sources said. The suspensions didn't start with Sunday's game against the visiting Jets because the players had yet to receive written notification from the league, a source said... just in time for the fantasy playoffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

historymike Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I think they announce suspensions after the appeals Ugh - this was announced after the WW cutoff for one of my leagues. It looks like I will be carrying Fred Davis as dead weight in the FF playoffs now, as there are no pickups after this point. I'd better hope Aaron Hernandez stays healthy.

BadDawg Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Thought Davis was a great pick up when D. Clark became an Indy washout. I don't think Heath is going to carry me ... but he's better than picking thru the scrap heap that is left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazinib1 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Anyone know if Williams was having an effective season on the line? Good enough that his absence will have much of an effect on Helu? I think Grossman suffers more losing his starting LT than Helu at first glance. But lets dive into Helu's direction runs and see: During the Jets game, here are the rushing attempts at each guard position: LE: 2 attempts/11yds LT: 4 attempts/0 yds LG: 2 attempts/16yds ML: 2 attempts/3yds MR: 4 attempts/20yds RG: 3 attempts/9yds RT: 5 attempts/36yds RE: 1 attempt/5yds In case you are confused by the above positions, here is how they are recorded. A run to between the C and LG is marked ML. A run between the C and RG is marked MR. Here is a better description: Bold is the route and RED is the actual position. LE TE LT LT LG LG ML C Repeat for the right side Looking at that, seems the Redskins have a better run blocking scheme going to the right.

tazinib1 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 According to ProFootballTalk.com, Trent Williams is the 16th ranked LT with a cumulative rating of +3.8. His Pass blocking is rated at 5.1 while his run blocking is 2.5 (12th overall). But as the run stats above point out, they have more success going to the right.

Endzone Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Any updated confirmation if suspension will commence this week? Would pick-up an active flex from waivers f Davis is indeed done for the season. Hopefully confirmation comes by the end of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpinalTapp Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I know this is not the focus of this thread....but as a Skins fan - this is such a sad, sad day. Two of our only possible offensive building blocks have proven they have no respect for themselves or their teammates. F.Davis was in a contract year! We are total mess as a franchise and did not need these two potential leaders letting us down - even if it was months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
