5. Quinshad Davis, Jr. Wide Receiver

Quinshad Davis will be the top target for Marquise Williams and Mitch Trubisky this year.  He hasn’t had an outstanding year yet at UNC, but last year he became UNC’s top scoring threat, catching 10 touchdown passes.

Davis’s large frame makes him an ideal target in the red zone, and without too many other established options at wide receiver, I think Quinshad will step up and have a breakout junior season.  Davis also has good hands, and does a good job of getting yards after the catch.  While he may not be as explosive as Ryan Switzer, I believe Davis is a better receiver and will be more productive as a wide receiver this season.
