2023 Fantasy Outlook
Washington took Davis 19th overall in the 2021 Draft after he ran a 4.47 40 at the Kentucky Pro Day at 234 pounds (he also had a 132-inch broad jump and 42-inch vertical). He took on a 59 percent snap share as a rookie and went up to 85 percent last season, mostly playing alongside Cole Holcomb, who now is with the Steelers after averaging 9.2 tackles per game his final two years in Washington. Davis averaged 7.9 tackles after Holcomb's season-ending injury Week 7 of 2022, and further progress could be coming this year as the 24-year-old continues to handle the green dot and an every-down role.

Davis is expected to be healthy for training camp after undergoing season-ending shoulder surgery in December, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Davis finished his third season with 89 tackles (50 solo), including three sacks, two forced fumbles, and an interception. The Kentucky product should be back to full health by training camp and heads into 2024 with one year remaining on his contract, as well as a fifth-year option the Commanders have until May 2 to exercise.

Headed to Vegas?

April 22, 2021
Chris Trapasso of CBS Sports has Davis going 17th overall to the Raiders in his latest mock draft.
ANALYSIS
Davis was a regular starter for just one season at Kentucky, but it was a thoroughly dominant campaign that he then backed up with an even more impressive pro-day workout. After notching 102 tackles and three interceptions in 10 games this past season, Davis ran the 40-yard dash in 4.37 seconds, displaying wide-receiver speed in the body of a 234-pound linebacker. He now has a shot to be drafted in the first round, and the Raiders once again could use help at every level of their woebegone defense.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
Davis took his lumps as a rookie, coming in as a first-round pick after one of the best-ever combine workouts by a linebacker (4.47 40, 42-inch vertical, 132-inch broad jump). He started eight of 16 games and averaged 4.8 tackles per contest, with a 56.4 percent snap share for the year. Not bad, but not what you want from a first-round pick. Davis, of course, has the tools to be a standout IDP if he secures a three-down role and continues to improve.
Davis taps a few different scouting cliches, alternately described as a "one-year wonder" or a "workout warrior." Whatever the case, he was dominant in his final season at Kentucky (102 tackles, three interceptions in 10 games) and arguably even more dominant at his pro day, where he put up a 4.48 40-yard dash and 42-inch vertical jump, despite weighing a solid 234 pounds. The size-speed combination gives Davis the ceiling of a dominant, three-down linebacker in the Urlacher/Willis/Wagner mold, but he's far from a sure thing as a prospect, given his lack of production and playing time in college before 2020. If nothing else, the draft spot should ensure Davis gets on the field this year, potentially even as a Week 1 starter. He's the upside IDP play in a LB group that otherwise features Jon Bostic and Cole Holcomb as the likely starters in the base defense.
