Jets coach Rex Ryan confirmed 2012 third-round pick Demario Davis will be a starter in his second season. | ||||||
He'll take Bart Scott's place next to David Harris. "He's our No. 1 WILL linebacker on our depth chart," Ryan said of Davis. "Clearly Demario is a guy we feel very good about." Davis primarily played in nickel packages last season, amassing 36 tackles across 16 games. He'll be on the LB3 radar in IDP leagues. | ||||||

Caplan wrote that Davis profiles as Bart Scott's replacement in 2013, when Scott's guaranteed money runs out.
