    As the 30th player selected overall this year, Davis will sign a five-year contract. Financial details of the deal were not immediately available.

    Davis, 21, emerged in 2006, his lone college season as a full-time starter, as a precise route-runner, a receiver who makes great adjustments, and a big-play threat in the open field. He started all 12 games and, despite the presence of lead receiver Dwayne Bowe, who was the first-round choice of the Kansas City Chiefs and the 22nd player selected, had 56 receptions for 836 yards and four touchdowns.

    Used primarily as the "X" receiver in the LSU offense, Davis possesses nice versatility, and might be able to work out the slot as well at the NFL level. Always a hard worker, Davis was able to add some bulk to his upper body last season, and has solid size (6-feet-1, 200 pounds) and strength. At the combine workouts, he was timed at 4.41 seconds in the 40.

    For his career, Davis had 141 catches for 2,107 yards and seven touchdowns, appearing in 44 games, with 25 starts.
