Corey Davis from Western Michigan currently sits atop the college football leaderboards with 5,278 career receiving yards, and most games (27) with 100 or more receiving yards. Those feats sound really impressive until you consider that the type of talent capable of such things would rarely stay within the collegiate ranks long enough before turning pro. Regardless, Davis deserves credit for absolutely dominating the competition during his four years at Western Michigan.

The exhibition will afford Davis the opportunity to establish himself as the top wide receiver post-Combine after Mike Williams posted a very poor vertical jump and delayed running the 40-yard dash until his pro day.

From a fantasy football perspective, if Dalvin Cook and Leonard Fournette do not find premiere NFL landing spots on draft day, Corey Davis would be a safe, high floor No. 1 dynasty rookie draft pick. Davis’ case for the rookie 1.01 will be significantly strengthened if he excels in his upcoming individual workouts after Mike Williams and numerous running backs face-planted at the NFL Scouting Combine.
