Titans moving WR all over the formation
OC Matt LaFleur is moving Corey Davis across the formation, having him work at the No. 2 or No. 3 position in some three-receiver sets in addition to playing on the outside. For Davis, learning all the positions will allow LaFleur to get him in more favorable matchups, such as going against another team’s nickel cornerback. That type of scheming is done for many of the league’s top receivers – the ones who regularly face double-teams and exotic coverages. (ESPN – Turron Davenport)
Nerdy Football Analysis: Injuries were the primary reason Davis disappointed as a rookie, although his two-touchdown performance against New England in the Divisional Round last year provided a pretty good snapshot of his upside. Already a physical mismatch for most of the league’s starting cornerbacks, Davis could be an animal if he sees regular time in the slot. He is a solid WR2 choice in the fourth or fifth round with WR1 upside.
