Davis wasn't a particularly interesting college prospect and he went undrafted in 2021. But he has hung around the Cowboys organization for five seasons and even looked spry in 2025, averaging 3.3 yards after contact and 4.8 yards per carry on his 52 attempts.

Davis's 12-pick rise offers cheap handcuff upside with Dowdle-like early-career trajectory.

Davis rose 12 ADP spots after the Cowboys cut their backup running back depth to one option. Though not a particularly interesting college prospect and undrafted in 2021, Davis has hung around the Cowboys organization for five seasons and looked spry in 2025, averaging 3.3 yards after contact and 4.8 yards per carry on 52 attempts. The source notes this is a shockingly similar runout to Rico Dowdle's early career; at worst Davis is a cheap handcuff bet, at best he mixes in relief for Javonte Williams and has standalone value without an injury.
