Great writeup of Keith Davis, SHSU alum who anchored our offense during the early part of this decade. He's had some problems and has finally gotten to the point where he's ready to make his mark. Aaron Glenn even made a great remark about Davis. Parcells has always been a big fan of Davis and what he brings to the table. If he can stay out of trouble, he can be the starter this year.

IRVING - One fact emerging from the Cowboys' three-day minicamp over the weekend is that while Lynn Scott, Clint Finley and rookie Justin Beriault are part of the competition to be the starter at free safety, the job is probably special teams maven Keith Davis' to lose.
Never mind that Scott finished last season as the starter and the competition is technically open; Davis is the guy everyone is looking to as the starter.
Of course, that's if the Cowboys don't sign a veteran free agent. Davis can't help but be excited about the prospects of going from undrafted rookie free agent to starter.
It's simply a dream come true for a guy who was cut two years ago after being shot in a nightclub, forcing him to spend last spring in NFL Europe before regaining Cowboys coach Bill Parcells' trust with his standout play on special teams.
