Vernon Davis getting deep at 49ers minicamp

by Brian Tesch | Thu, Jun 11th 10:28am EDT

According to Grant Cohn, Vernon Davis "outran Antoine Bethea and Michael Wilhoite down the seam for a 50-yard touchdown catch on the first play of 7-on-7 drills. Also outran Nick Moody and Kenneth Acker down the seam for a 40-yard touchdown during 11-on-11’s." (The Santa Rosa Press Democrat)

Fantasy Impact:

Minicamps are set up for this kind of passing success, but it's encouraging to see that Davis can still stretch a defense. Bethea, Wilhoite, Moody, and Acker ran 40-yard dashes ranging from the 4.3 to 4.7 range, theoretically, Davis still has most of his 4.38 speed remaining. As FantasyPros 23rd consensus ranked TE, Davis is a near lock to deliver value, but his relevance is yet to be determined after a nightmare 2014.
