Falcons sign RB Mike Davis to two-year deal

Source: #Panthers RB Mike Davis to the #Falcons on a 2 year deal worth $5.5M with $3M fully guaranteed in Year 1, source says.

Fantasy Impact:

Among the free agent running backs listed here, the 28-year-old Davis had the third-highest points per game last season, ahead of Kenyan Drake, James Conner and Leonard Fournette. Todd Gurley and Brian Hill are both free agents as well, so Davis likely sits atop a Falcons' depth chart that includes Ito Smith, Qadree Ollison and Tony Brooks-James. Depending on what the Falcons do in the draft, this could be a very underrated signing given Davis' production last season (1,015 total yards and eight touchdowns), his versatility (59 catches), and new HC Arthur Smith's history of a strong running game while calling plays for the Titans. Davis is no Derrick Henry, however, and the Falcons are very much a threat to draft a running back, so owners shouldn't get too excited just yet. At worst, Davis will be a Zero RB target as a backup to a talented rookie. At best, he'll start for the Falcons in 2021 and should go off the board in the fifth round. In the 19 games since the 2017 season where Davis has seen at least 10 carries, he has averaged 17.9 touches for 80 total yards and 0.63 touchdowns. Those would have been solid RB2 numbers in 2020.

CAR RB Mike Davis - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. New Orleans Saints

Mike Davis has had a quality season filling in for Christian McCaffrey with 642 rushing yards, 373 receiving yards and eight touchdowns. He had just 28 yards last week against Washington, but found the end zone for the fourth time in five games. Davis is splitting work with Rodney Davis over the second half of the season, but still seems to be the main guy when McCaffrey sits.

With McCaffrey likely out again, Davis should see double-digit touches against the Saints. It’s not a great matchup, however, with New Orleans ranking second in aFPA to opposing running backs. If McCaffrey plays, sit Davis, but assuming he’s out once again, Davis should be a fringe RB2 option, with quality touches, but a tough matchup.

Update: It looks like Rodney Smith will be filling in with Davis injured. This is a bad matchup, and looks like a place to stay away from for fantasy owners.
