With Logan Ryan a potential option in free agency, it makes sense to wait until Day 3 to target the cornerback position.

The cousin of former NFL players Vernon and Vontae Davis, Javaris Davis is looking to make his own legacy at the next level. As a senior at Auburn, Davis proved he belongs in the draft conversation, recording 43 tackles, one for loss, two interceptions and six pass breakups in 13 starts.

Davis can play both inside and outside, has great speed — he ran a 4.39 40-yard dash at the combine — and has the ball skills and instincts to hold his own despite his short stature at 5-foot-8, 183-pounds.
