I think he would be a good choice for the jazz to draft at number 9. He is already a good defensive player and he blocks shots. Good length at 6'10. Could add more weight and be a beast inside. He is an improving offensive player. I think he is a safe pick at the worst but with some decent potential.

How would you feel about drafting him?
 
Already missed most of a year with injury. And even when he played he only showed flashes of how good he could be. Was never consistent enough to be a go to guy. Udoh, Monroe would be better picks IMO because they have proven themselves as players in big games. Davis is the perfect example of project and something that the Jazz might be able to use in a few years. But wont give us much until then. Love his potential but is high on a lot of list out there as a possible bust.
 
The few games I saw him play he seemed very mechanical on the offensive end. He dropped a few passes right out of bounds - seemed to have poor hands. His only offensive move was dunking, but I only saw him a few times before he broke his wrist/arm. Davis also will get pushed around in the NBA he is rather skinny. He should have stayed in school. He is a few years away but the kid has some talent but he really needs to work on his offensive skills.
 
I'm going to trust the FO with this one. We're 1-1 with Top-10 picks, so if Davis is that guy then i'm fine with him. He was considered as a potential #1 headed into this year.
 
Yikes. Ed Davis reminds me a lot of Mike Williams who was drafted a few years ago.
