I like Lipscomb's chances if they end up carrying 6 WR.

Gotta think a Breeland suspension of any duration that moves Fenton outside will give Davis a pretty good shot at sticking.
But with so many teams using their best receiver in the slot fairly frequently, it's still gonna be hard for him to stick. People like to say things like "if not for his height he'd have gone much earlier..."
But height matters at defensive back. Sometimes you can be right where you need to be and the other guy's just bigger and takes it away. We learned that lesson several times with Brandon Flowers. He'd have perfect coverage and the bigger, stronger WR would just body him out and take the ball away or go up over him.
5'8" is just gonna be tough to overcome. People like Mathieu are the exception that proves that rule.
