Davis scraps? Wow..harsh...

Look at stats...Davis and Gates are pretty close in points the last two years..Gates had a ton of TD's last year, which made his PPG higher...but Davis is young and coming into his prime years, whereas Gates is older and battling injuries...NFL is all about stats, and Davis makes the SF QB's better, so you can count on him being targeted even more this year.

49ers quarterbacks produced a 113.8 passer rating when targeting Vernon Davis in 2010.
Even more impressively, Alex Smith boasted a 124.0 rating on throws to Davis compared to 72.6 to all other targets. For comparison's sake, San Fran QBs produced just a 64.8 rating on passes to Michael Crabtree, 85.3 to Josh Morgan, and an appallingly low 36.8 to Ted Ginn. Entering 2011, there's no question Davis is the Niners' top receiving threat.

Yah, I think its about right....
