Draft Profile: Bio
Daewood Davis attended Deerfield Beach High School and was rated a 3-star prospect by 247 Sports with a scout's rating of 0.850, going unranked by ESPN. Following high school, Davis opted to join Oregon.In 2019 as a freshman Davis saw action in just 2 games and played a total of 2 snaps at wide receiver for the Ducks. He recorded no tackles, no assists, while adding no stops. In coverage Davis notched up no pass breakups, no interceptions, and an elite QB rating when targetted of .0.
As a sophomore in 2020 he played in just one game and logged 4 snaps for the Ducks. He made no tackles, no assists, and had no stops. In coverage he totaled no pass breakups, no interceptions, and an elite QB rating when targetted of .0.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Often used on deep routes, getting separation down the sideline or over the middle on crossing routes by extending his arms rather than pure speed.
- Balanced, savvy route runner with top field awareness, setting up and selling routes beautifully.
- Made Bruce Feldman's Freak's List - ranked #75. He wrote, "The 6-2 Floridian has packed on 17 pounds since coming from Eugene 18 months ago, and is up to 191 pounds while also cutting his body fat from 8.6 percent to 6.4. Since then, Davis’ vertical has gone from 33.5 inches to 40 and his broad jump has improved from 10-2 to 10-7. He also did a 4.20 pro agility time this offseason."
- Shows good sense as a route runner and provides an enormous catch radius over the middle of the field. Davis has soft hands and uses his frame effectively to shield defenders, making him a major threat in the red zone.
- Davis has quick feet and good body control, allowing him to gear down and quickly get in and out of cuts. His hands are good, and he’s a creative runner after the catch with the elusiveness to slip tackles in space.
- An excellent blocker on the outside, Davis also adds value in the running game.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- He’ll be coming to the NFL from a wide-open spread offense in which Davis ran a limited route tree.
- Davis also had problems with drops when coming back to the action. He has some issues against press coverage, sometimes spending too much time hand fighting at the line of scrimmage.
- His ability to track the ball is good enough, but he too often let the ball get into his body downfield rather than snatching it with his hands.
- Davis also lacks suddenness as a route runner, and that is a potential issue at the next level.
