4.15 Houston Tethered Swimmers - WR Trevor Davis

In the real world: The Green Bay Packers drafted Davis in Round 5. Skinny at 6'1", 188 lb.; he does have above-average speed (4.42 40). If there's one thing working in Davis' favor, it's that the Packers were looking specifically for speedy receivers--last season, they really suffered from the loss of Jordy Nelson to a torn ACL. If Davis produces on any quick slant passes and screen passes he gets, and add any bulk or strength without losing that speed, he can be a lot more than a kick returner.
In the TUFF world: I'm not about to knock the second-to-last pick in the draft.  There have been slower guys that have succeeded in the NFL, bigger and faster guys that busted out in short order, and guys that I labeled as kick returners who turned out to be much more than that.
