2022 Defense Projections
2022 Fantasy Outlook
Davis’ quality of play is high to the point that it sometimes undercuts his IDP utility – drives that
would move the chains against lesser defenses instead end at Davis’ hands – but that’s offset
somewhat by his year-to-year reliability. In his four seasons with the Saints he’s hovered around
the 110-tackle mark while supplementing his tackle production with standout numbers as a pass
rusher — 16 sacks in four years. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS

Agrees to one-year extension
Davis and the Saints agreed on a contract restructure Friday that will keep the linebacker signed through the 2024 campaign, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Davis' base salary will drop slightly in 2023, but he'll still be eligible for hefty incentives during each season remaining on his new three-year deal. Last year, the veteran linebacker earned second-team All-Pro honors after registering his fifth straight season with more than 100 tackles and will likely continue being the leader of the Saints' defense moving forward.

Even with his increasing recognition, Davis might be the most underrated linebacker in the league. He's been a shutdown force both against the run and the pass, and he reliably gets to the quarterback when he's sent on a blitz. Davis' play is so good that it ultimately limits his tackle upside - passes his way often hit the ground, and drives have a way of ending sooner because of his presence - but he's still posted 221 tackles over his 1,883 snaps with the Saints. That projects to about 117 tackles per 1,000 snaps, which is generously complemented by nine sacks in the same sample (roughly five sacks per 1,000 snaps). The fact that Davis has just one interception but 16 passes defended in that sample implies the potential for an imminent interception spree, too. His relatively modest tackle production generally leaves him short of a top-12 projection at linebacker, but his sack and turnover upside could lead him to overachieve relative to that calculation.
