Chargers wide receiver Craig Davis, the team’s top pick in last weekend’s draft, admitted that he could feel the butterflies in his stomach before his first Mini Camp as an NFL player.

“I was nervous going into it,” Davis said. “Last night I lost a little sleep thinking about coming out here and competing with some of the big-name guys.”

Davis didn’t turn to a dose of antacid to make him feel better; he simply used a little encouragement from the reigning NFL MVP.

“LT came over and whispered something in my ear,” Davis said. “He told me to loosen up and smile a little bit. That made me a little more comfortable. I was able to just roll with things after that.”

After his conversation with Tomlinson, Davis enjoyed a smooth morning. He worked with the offense and caught the eye of his head coach several times.

“Craig was impressive to me,” Head Coach Norv Turner said. “He’s got outstanding speed, the ability to get in and out of breaks. He’s really built to run the routes the way we want them run and he’s got outstanding hands. I was excited watching him run around out there.”
