Dom Davis ought to be showing better than LeFevour at this point, but the reports seem to be filled with faint praise.

Mini camp for qbs isnt a great tool for evaluation. No rush, 1 on 1s etc. It covers up some weak spots and hides some strengths. For instance throwing deep balls with no rush, and only 1 on 1 is nothing like tossing deep in games. While with out the rest of the field an athletic QB doesnt get much of any chance to shine. Its more about getting new guys a basic understanding of the system / cfl game, and seeing how they progressed since the coach call / end season meeting. 

Accurate possession offense qbs like nichols and lefevour will allways out perform some one like davis in a mini camp / 1 on 1s type drill. 

Short of some one stinking it up to an epic degree i wouldnt look too hard at the performance level of qbs till after the first pre season game. Davis has played soo little football in soo very long i dont know how any one can expect a lot of him right now. more then any one else he needs a good number of pre season reps.
