Davis was a three-star recruit in the class of 2022 who signed with Arizona out of California. He played in five games as a freshman, registering seven tackles. In 2023, he was Honorable Mention All-Pac-12 with 25 total tackles, one interception and 15 passes defended. He helped the team win 10 games that year. For the 2024 season, Davis had 44 tackles and six passes defended. Arizona took a step back and Davis followed his former coach Jedd Fisch to Washington. With the Huskies, Davis had 19 total tackles, two interceptions and seven passes defended in seven games played. He helped the Huskies make a bowl game.
Following the season, Davis has been preparing for the 2026 NFL Draft. He is currently projected to be a mid-round pick.
Davis has great size and length for the cornerback position. He measured just under 6-foot-4 and 194 pounds at the NFL Combine. Davis has room to fill out his frame more with some muscle, but he has a good starting point for the NFL. He also has long arms that measure over 33 inches. His length and strength help him press and smother receivers as they go for catches.
His ball skills are great and he had amazing ball production in his sophomore season. Davis does a good job of tracking the football in the air and making a quick break on the ball. He attacks the catchpoint aggressively. Davis can come away with a deflection or an interception because he is in position and is aggressive.
He has vast potential as a zone coverage player in the NFL. Davis can use his length to disrupt, but also has solid range in zone. He has good eye balance between the quarterback and the zone he is covering. Davis reads the quarterbacks’ eyes well and adjusts his coverage accordingly.
Davis is a better zone corner than a man-to-man. He can struggle to mirror receivers who are smaller and shiftier. As they go through their routes, they are able to gain separations with each break. Davis can be used in man coverage, but would be a better fit for teams that prioritize playing zone.
There are times when he fails to trust his technique and can get grabby. When receivers get a little separation, Davis uses his long arms to hold them. He will want to work on getting in better position so he doesn’t have to grab, as he will get called for it more at the pro level.
He can support the run a bit more than he does. Davis has good size so he can work on shedding blocks or slipping them. If he shows more aggression to get by blocks, he is a decent tackler with a solid radius. He can be more of an asset than he currently is with more run support.
Projected Draft Range: Third Round Pick-Fifth Round Pick
Draft Grade: Third Round Pick
