Led the ACC in receiving yards in 2005 with 871 on 51 catches, resulting in six touchdowns and being named a finalist for the John Mackey Award which recognizes the top tight end in the nation...Earned AP All-American First-Team honors last season, which is one of the reasons he has made himself eligible for the draft this year rather than returning to Maryland for his senior campaign...The first offensive player for the Terps in 50 years to be named a First-Team All-American...Led Maryland as a sophomore with 441 yards receiving on 27 receptions, adding a team-high three touchdowns...Played all 13 games for the Terps as a true freshman in 2003, spending time on offense with five catches for 59 yards and also special teams where he posted eight solo tackles...Recognized as one of the strongest players on the Maryland roster...Needs to smooth out the rough edges of his game, but the upside for Davis is nearly unlimited which is why he is regarded as the top tight endprospect in the draft.
