Monster.

Still, not sure what good that speed will do when teams who draft him will put him on the nose.

It’s his initial get off that has teams salivating. 1.69 on his 10 yard split is MOVING for someone that’s 340. His 40 time is just the cherry and what people saw when he was chasing running backs down outside the numbers.

I'm too lazy to look it up but I think he was only a 3* out of HS.

It’s important for him because it shows not only would he be a monster as a nose but he’s also quick enough and agile enough to play in any NFL defense, not just in a 3-4, so his stock will soar

One of those guys that border on being a 4* or 3*. I think in the final ranking he was a 4* but not in the top 250. I think he showed up near 375lb. He played between 330-350, but 330 was a real struggle.

I said during the playoffs that Davis could have started for the Bengals . . . this year, not next.

Explosiveness is what they're looking at.

I've watched quite a bit of the combine workouts (especially O-line) keeping an eye on potential Bengals draft picks. The one thing that jumps out at you is appearances very rarely indicate how well a guy is going to perform athletically, especially with these big guys.

I'm glad he's on his way to the NFL. GO CATS!!

This guy, their other DL, and their TE stood out as absolute monsters. They looked like they were made on create-a-player with everything set to max. Just different animals altogether.

Which TE? They had several to choose from.

Brock Bowers.... we get at least 2 more years against him and while the others are very good, Bowers is unfair.

I agree, it was impossible to know how good he actually was going to be. As for Washington, I personally wish he would decide to move to OT. He is ok receiver but devastating blocker, people end up on the ground when he blocks them. I wish he would come to grips with LT having longer careers and making more per year than a TE. No doubt in my mind if he changed positions today he would be first OL taken in 24. Could build your OL around him.

Wonder how his numbers stack up against the kid that played nose guard for Baylor. That kid was a beast too .

He is getting alot of buildup for that 40, it probably made him some big money, but the most athletic DL at UGA was a soph. He will test better than Davis, but only 6'3" 325.
