It's a long reach

[xBuCsX_4_XeVax]

I know it's a long reach but I think we might have both Defensive and offensive rookie of the year on our team... We seem to be the only ones as fans that talk about L. David but he doesn't get the media attention the he deserves... This kid is smart, can cover and holy Christ what a tackling machine he is... a leader on and off the field..he's quickly become my favorite buc along Barron.. And Martin is now getting the national attention and might steal the ROY from Luck or RGLlll.. He's third in rushing and I think he'll finish top 5 baring any injuries..any thoughts?

How about we change the topic title to "Lavonte David" and we use this thread to show him the love he deserves.

[BucBalla85]

Great move by Dom to trade back into the second to get him. I remember watching that second round last April and hoping we ended up with him somehow. Thankfully thats exactly what happened. Wasnt expecting him to make this much noise this year. Hes gonna be a great player here.

Lavonte has been consistently solid all year long. I think he is a couple of splash plays away from getting a lot more attention. Other teams know about him, but other fans don't because he doesn't have an interception or fumble return for a touchdown that they got to see on espn or nfln.

[Chief Joseph]

David is not even in the conversation outside of the Tampa market. It ain't gonna happen.

Exactly my Point he doesn't even get mentioned outside the Tampa area because we haven't won more games... But that dude will be a probowler for years to come... The only Defensive rookie i can see ahead of him of the top of my head is C.Jones from NE and because he has a lot of sacks

And with Luck and RGIII playing as well as they are, neither is Martin.

But the young fellas are playing well.

Dougie could rush for over 2000 and not get ROY. RGIII has too much hype.

Idk guys... If some how he leads the league in rushing and we sneak in the playoffs I think it'd be very hard not to give him the hardware... But I think David has a better of DROY cuz all the hype was on Keuchly now you don't even here of him (smh) where JAVA now talking up his guy!? But there's really no front runner on D

[Sam Ram 33]

David has 0 chance at DROY.... Love the guy buy doesn't have the sack or INT numbers which is what matters.  As far as dougie goes if he gets 2000 yards he will be ROY... Luck is putting of good numbers yards and TD wise but his INT's are bad.  RGIII is coming back down to earth.  It may just end up being which one of these three average team has a better record that seals the deal.

Yup. There was/has been very little mention of Martin on any of the networks. The main story is the 3-5 Cowboys. LOL.

When Murray rushed for 250+ last year, every network couldn't stuff it in their mouths enough to satisfy.

Goes with the territory. If Martin were in a larger market he would be on his way to superstardom.

That is the reason I cant stand that **CENSORED**ing team. They get so much love for being so mediocre. Seriously the day they do win a Super Bowl I will be happy for them because then they will really have deserved that talk, but now they really dont. 

[chace1986]

They will be sitting at 5-8 and already out of playoff contention...and the NFLN guys and NFL Live guys will still be talking about "What's wrong with the Cowboys?"

A story that has been on repeat for the last 15+ years...

Not really.. the two guys ahead of him have played one more game than him. He has the highest average yards from scrimmage in the league.

No doubt...   a broken freakin' record IMO.

America's team my ass.

Oh, and while we're at it,   can we get rid of some of those Steelers fans that clap every time they gain 3 yards, make a completion or tackle somebody?
