Corey Davis 2020 Outlook: In Desperate Need of Targets
Titans' former fifth-overall pick Corey Davis has been a bust for the most part since getting drafted. He was an absolute stud in a playoff loss against the Patriots in 2017 and showed signs of improvement as a sophomore but fell flat in 2019. Davis as outshined by second-round receiver A.J. Brown and effectively relegated to WR2 heading into this season in Tennessee. Davis is still athletic but seems to be a victim of circumstance playing the role of an outside alpha receiver in an offense that is incapable of targeting him. While the quarterback change from Marcus Mariota to Ryan Tannehill proved fruitful to the Titans' offense, Davis saw his targets decline immensely (112 to 69) from 2018. However, his catch rate and yards per target both have steadily increased since his rookie year, showing signs of life for the 25-year-old wide receiver. He may not be a fantasy viable option if his target volume remains low but the possible mid-season trade is possible along with an unexpected breakout forcing his team's hand. All-in-all Davis is worth drafting around his ADP for pure upside alone, especially given that injuries have not been an issue for the past two seasons.
