Strength of schedule is calculated from the opponents projected fantasy points allowed for the TE position. The best rating is +16 which gives the player the advantage against the defense and indicates an easy opponent, the worst rating is -16 which gives the defense the advantage and indicates a tough opponent.
Year after year, Davis continues to frustrate coaches and fantasy owners. His athleticism fails to translate into production onto the field. Until he is able to prove otherwise, he should be left on the waiver wire come draft day.

Draft Analysis
Round 6, Pick 6
Positives Loaded with all the tools to play his position. Developed late last season and has been the talk of camp thus far. Negatives Young and relatively unproven. Broke his leg last year so difficult to judge his performance. Draft Strategy Maybe a bit early, but in this league if you want a guy you better grab him a bit early or you won't get him. And Davis is who I targeted at TE. If he is just pedestrian, big deal, he's my TE, but if he is special, well, he could add some significant points from a position of scarcity. A safe dice roll now that my other offensive starters are in place. (Contributed by: Pat_Smith)
Round 7, Pick 11
Positives Vernon is a beast. Has looked great in camp. Great speed and chemistry with a developing QB. Negatives Limited experience. Draft Strategy I needed a solid TE and Vernon will give that to me. I didn't think he would fall on the flip and I have Cotchery and Santana Moss ranked similarly. (Contributed by: checo446)
Round 7, Pick 6
Positives Physical freak of nature w/ good hands
He's the best Receiver that the 49ers have
49ers will still be playing from behind a lot Negatives Alex Smith needs to continue improving for Vernon to be elite.
Draft Strategy The Tight Ends started flying off the board. Gonzo, then Heap and Winslow all in this round.(Gates and Shockey were long gone) I like Davis better than any of the three above for these reasons: Shitty team, Always injured, Always injured. (Contributed by: ludakris50)
