NFL wide receiver Corey Davis is a potential 2021 fantasy football sleeper and ADP draft value. Target him as an undervalued WR in fantasy football drafts.
BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~125 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~142
ANALYSIS: As soon as Corey Davis appeared to reward fantasy managers for their patience, he switched teams. Last season, Davis set career highs in receptions, receiving yards, touchdowns, and catch percentage. Davis missed just two games and was the WR31 in 2020. Now, we get to see Davis try to replicate his success on one of the most unproven teams in the league, the Jets.
Davis steps in as the projected alpha receiver in a receiving room full of veterans and young prospects (Jamison Crowder, Keelan Cole, Denzel Mims and Elijah Moore). There are many mouths to feed in this offense, and they also have a rookie quarterback in Zach Wilson and a first-year Head Coach in Robert Saleh at the helm. Thankfully, one of fantasy's most famous sayings can be applied here: follow the money.
Last offseason, despite the decreased cap space in the NFL, Davis managed to sign a relatively long-term deal for substantial money. Davis' three-year $38 million deal was the second-largest deal per year given out to receivers this offseason (behind only Kenny Golladay). The team wanted to secure Davis this offseason. Following the trend of teams surrounding their young QBs with talent, the Jets have done just that.
Now he joins the Jets, a team desperate for a go-to option in the passing game. Davis is arguably the most talented and proven receiver on this team, and he's a great depth receiver to grab late in drafts. It's clear the Jets have plans to get him the football. Take one good look at his target share in the preseason, and you'll quickly realize why you should be all-in on Corey Davis this season.
