The 6’5, 335-lb senior is a big athlete with prototypical size for a tackle at the next level. A 2025 All-Big Ten selection, Davis is elite in pass protection, displaying above-average pass sets, hand timing, and anchor. Davis’ best attribute is his ability to finish blocks, as he uses his 335-lb frame to violently displace defenders. Davis has a unique pass protection style that allows him to wall off defenders at any depth in the pocket. He also flashes fake hands, which causes rushers to reveal their plan early, a veteran move that should translate well at the next level. In the run game, Davis has the feet and body control to work up to the second level effectively. He can take better angles when asked to reach block, but overall is very effective in the run game. Davis is a high-upside prospect with the physical traits and experience to succeed in the NFL.
Scheme/Team Fit
Davis is best suited to a scheme that emphasizes drive blocks and double-teams out of 12 personnel sets. Davis’ frame will serve him well when attacking downhill in the run game. The Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers are ideal fits for Davis’ style of play. Limiting Davis’ one-on-one matchups against speed rushers is ideal.
