Tennessee Titans: Could Corey Davis make the Pro Bowl?

Projections for Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Corey Davis are all over the place, but could he conceivably make the Pro Bowl in 2017?

Is Tennessee Titans rookie Corey Davis a Pro Bowl player? Certainly not yet. But the same player left off an All-Rookie team prediction on NFL.com done by Bucky Brooks, was projected as a potential Pro Bowl player this year by the site's Marc Sessler.

So which is it? Is Davis a player who won't be good enough to make an All-Rookie team? Or, is he a player capable of being a Pro Bowl representative in his first season? The answer, quite simply, is both.

Much like the pre-draft prognostications, the opinions on Davis are all over the board. There is no doubt he has talent. You don't post at least 1,400 yards receiving in three-straight seasons as Davis did without having talent. And it doesn't matter at what level that feat was accomplished.

Davis is a talent. And in Marcus Mariota, he has an up-and-coming quarterback throwing him the football. The two can grow together.

The Titans have had some bad luck with receivers in recent drafts. Do Justin Hunter or Dorial Green-Beckham ring a bell? Both were size-speed, second-round reaches drafted more on their potential rather than their production.

Hunter had just one big season at the University of Tennessee before the Titans took him in the second round of the draft. Green-Beckham? He was an even bigger mystery after being kicked out of Missouri after his sophomore season. Both, however, were drafted by previous front office regimes.

Are there questions about Davis' potential? Sure. Because he was unable to do any of the pre-draft work at the NFL Scouting Combine or during his pro day because of injury, we don't know how fast he is or any of the other measurables. That, however, is a minor quibble. When you turn on his game tape, you see a player capable of taking over a game.

Will that translate to the NFL as it did when he dominated the MAC? The transition didn't seem to bother Antonio Brown or Ben Roethlisberger or Khalil Mack or Julian Edelman. They are other former MAC stars who have become among the league's best players.

Davis can make that jump as well. The opportunity for immediate stardom is certainly there for the fifth overall pick in the draft.
