Draft Scouting Report

Summary

J.C. Davis enters the NFL as one of the more experienced offensive linemen in the class. He started the past four years at left tackle — two at Illinois and two at New Mexico. Davis has obvious NFL size and strength, which are his biggest selling points. He can generate movement in the run game when he locks in. Consistency and foot speed are the primary concerns. Despite his experience outside, he projects best as a guard at the next level.

Combine Data
  • 40-yard dash: 5.16 seconds
