There's a ton of buzz around Jordan Davis right now—rightfully so. But Davis is a more complicated evaluation than many believe. TheJoeMarino breaks down Davis' game & the concerns that still linger despite a dominant Combine. FrontOffice33 | NFLDraft
Perhaps you are surprised to hear that given all of his buzz right now and the accolades he recently collected.
Even the most skeptical evaluators of Davis can’t help but be impressed by the athleticism Davis displayed at the combine. With that said, size and athleticism were never the concerns with Davis and those abilities can easily be seen in flashes when studying him on film. The concerns with Davis are rooted in weight management/nutrition, conditioning, and pass rush ability and the combine didn’t answer any of those questions.
Of course, Davis is an elite run defender, but the NFL is about passing the football and stopping the pass. When it comes to making a difference on passing downs, Davis doesn’t provide nearly enough value. Can Davis get coached up at the NFL level and unlock his potential as a pass rusher? Of course that is possible, but he has an uphill climb given his starting point entering the league.
With conditioning and weight control being limiting factors to Davis’ game that led to his return to Georgia in 2021 as something he wanted to improve upon, he actually played fewer snaps per game in 2021 than he did in 2020 . Alabama’s plan was to run tempo to wear down Davis and the Georgia defense and it worked. Davis was visibly gassed in the contest and“I had to look at myself and realize I wasn’t doing enough… I’d say we weren’t as conditioned as we should have been, especially on my part”
