He was one of if not the most clutch receiver we had this season. Does he do enough to be a high draft pick next year?

Basically what do you think his ceiling is?

I saw Justin Jefferson go from a 2 star to a solid contributor to exploding to be a great weapon for an all time offense to being the best WR in the NFL over the course of a couple seasons so I wouldn’t put any kind of ceiling on Anderson

He’s in a great spot to build on last year with the same QB and better weapons outside and get more favorable coverage to take advantage of his skills in the middle of the field more easily.

AA gets separation and has good hands. He'll be a big contributor and get drafted fairly high IMO, but def. not round 1...

Not a slight to the guy because he's a talented speedster.
However, his height is his biggest detriment. This game has evolved more and more into a tall man's game. When there is a challenge for a ball guess who wins? He can only be hit in stride and in open field.
His ceiling may be special teams but yet useful as a receiver.

AA will benefit the most from the new additions to the receiver room and Hilton being healthy. I wouldn’t say “def not.”

A lot depends on the offense and how many opportunities he gets. He will catch what is thrown at him almost every time. But he isn't the guy you look for when throwing balls you want a guy to go up and get or win a high 50/50 ball. But across the middle, he has been money.

He was amazing this year. If he does that 2 years in a row he'll get drafted top 3 rounds as nfl loves slot nightmare guys. His ceiling was this year, he played great.

He's pretty short so probably not too big of a step.




He is a beast though and was the most clutch receiver this past season. Hope he has a huge year next year.

About the same.
Had a good year and expect the same.
I think we saw his ceiling.

Hopefully coaches can turn him into a Percy Harvin type player.

If Nussmeier takes the step Jayden Daniels and Burrow took like everyone says he will, Anderson should take a huge step.

That would bring Nuss from a 59% SEC passer up near the 72% & 77% Daniels and Burrows jumped too. Meaning Anderson would be catching a lot more balls.


As far as pro prospect, he is small. He is probably a mid-round pick at best. But there is a spot for him.

I think there’s a chance last year was his peak. Part of what contributed to his success was being in one of the weaker wr rooms we’ve had in awhile. Brown and a healthy Anderson may take some targets away from him

I sure hope he does
I’d love to see him have a 1200 yd 12-15 TD season.

He will have a big season because we will have Hilton and other newcomers to stretch the field.

Anderson was great this year even when using him on the outside because we didn’t have anyone but him and Lacy

You’re right, Tyreek Hill has had a great special teams career.
