You can maybe talk me into him in the 2nd.
But he's a non-elite guard with multiple knee injuries. He has no business being taken by us in the 1st.
He had one knee injury (ACL) that he kept trying to play on this year and tweaking. Probably should have just fixed the issue, sat out, and moved on.
I can see not taking him in 1 if that's how you feel, but he's not even remotely close to available to KC at 61 so to even suggest it would be an exercise in futility. He might not even be there for us at 31. It's not a question of taking him in 2 unless it's a very modest trade back of 5 or fewer picks and even then I find it doubtful he makes it very long.
But your last statement is probably the most absurd comment I've read in a while. He is THE elite guard in this draft. A 2-time All-American (consensus and unanimous). [Reply]
2 concerns:
- Recent injury
- no position versatility: he’s a guard, that’s it. Knowing Reid’s penchant for guys that can play multiple spots, I’m not sure if he’s atop the list for what KC is looking for.
I have a lesser concern about scheme fit, but Davis is probably better suited to a power gap scheme than something that is heavy zone.
Slater, Vera-Tucker, and Meinerz are the apples of my eye... [Reply]

Not that I'm comparing him to this guy but if we could get Quentin Nelson at 31, I'd take that all day, every day. [Reply]
