Not sure why so many people say things like "No way"
Patrick Peterson eventually became a starter his freshman year. I recognize depth can contribute to this, but it's not like our receivers were setting the world on fire.. regardless what they were ranked coming out of HS.
Drake Davis has elite level type of talent. I truly hope they find a way to utilize him day one. No one said he was starting over the top 2 receivers.. but it's not impossible he ends up starting over any of the others.. even a guy like Johnson who is only 1 year up on him. It's not like he's some huge vet. Drake Davis is a potential game breaker.. and it would be somewhat disappointing not to utilize him.. even as a freshman.

I wouldn't be too surprised if he was starting at the #3 mid season. I just wouldn't put my money on it.
He is definitely an athletic freak. It all depends on how polished he is.
You have Xavier carter (6'3 all world track) then you have Jarvis Landry (5'11 below average combine). It's takes toughness and skill to be effective not just raw athleticism.
Now I'll admit I have no idea how ready drake is, I hope he's pretty far along. But until he learns the playbook, learns how to run block SEC DBs, learns how to beat the press, and learns how to disguise his routes to where he can hit any without telegraphing he won't start with all the guys we have.
We'll see where he's at. If not this year I expect him to be big for us In the future
