Fantasy Upside
The Jets rebuilt their receiving corps for new quarterback Zach Wilson. The best of the new group is veteran Corey Davis. The former Tennessee Titan set career-highs last season in receptions, receiving yardage, yards per catch and receiving touchdowns. Davis will start the season as the No. 1 receiver as the Jets rookie QB will rely on the veterans to get him through some early growing pains.
Fantasy Downside
There are a lot of question marks for New York's offense, as all the skills players are basically new to the team. It's a new coaching staff for the Jets, as well. So everyone's role will be a work in progress including Davis. He also has never eclipsed the 1,000 receiving-yard mark in his career and 65 is his highest reception total. Can Davis be a clear No. 1 option in the Jets offense? He has the talent, but it is risky if you are counting on it.
Bottom Line
Davis is most likely to repeat his performance last year with Tennessee. However, that should be his ceiling. The Jets offense will probably spread the ball around to all skill players which means Davis will see around 90 targets. That's not No. 1 numbers. When you go to draft him, he is depth for your lineup at this point who will help you as a reliable veteran if you have injuries or bye weeks where you need someone to help.
