I watched enough film of him to see that he has issues catching the ball.

If he can't catch the ball against high schoolers, what do you think he's gonna do in traffic against SEC safeties and linebackers?

He stands to make an impact this year on special teams and maybe a few end arounds (a la Chark last year).

Hopefully his hands improve

Don't forget to give everyone time to develop. It doesn't matter if people aren't polished their true freshman year. Keep working and getting better then sign that contract down the road like Debo Jones.

Not sure what all the down votes are about but I think it's a great observation. While I like the idea of Davis at WR a guy with his size and skill set can be devastating on defense. Sean Taylor was a freak as was Louis Oliver and David Fulcher.

Drake played at Dunham with my oldest. I've said this since he was in 7th grade. He's a Brandon Lafell clone just faster.

Never thought about it, but I think he would do great at safety. He's still not a polished route runner. But he's coming a long. His ceiling at wideout is very high, but he would be a right now star at safety

Michael Clayton was always looking to de-cleat a defensive back if he wasn't the hot receiver. DBs always had to know where Clayton was every play, because they were fair game to get leveled when Clayton wasn't catching the ball.
