PHILADELPHIA, Pa. – Western Michigan wide receiver Corey Davis became the highest NFL Draft pick in school history, as he was selected No. 5 overall by the Tennessee Titans. He is the second first round selection from WMU after Jason Babin was taken 27th overall in 2004.
Corey led Western Michigan to a 13-1 record in 2016 and the first New Year's Six Bowl berth in program history, playing in the 2017 Goodyear Cotton Bowl. The Broncos earned the bowl berth after winning their third Mid-American Conference title, defeating Ohio 29-26. Davis ended 2016 with a career-high 97 receptions for 1,500 yards and an FBS-high 19 touchdowns.
