We’ll see what the combine does for him. He is clearly a top 10 guy though.

In college maybe. I hope Jefferson finds a team that needs a solid guy in the slot. Outside of his ability to make separation on under routes, Jefferson will struggle at the next level against elite CBs.

This shouldn't need to be explained, but NFL teams don't use yards to evaluate a player's potential impact. They evaluate physical evidence, not circumstantial evidence.

Great news for the Saints! Let them snag him in a later round and watch him eat opposite Thomas in an offense he already knows

It's a very deep WR class this year. That said, I suspect the "knock" on Jefferson is a (presumed) lack of big time speed AND he's pretty slightly built for a guy listed at 6'3"

His 40 time is going to be the determining factor on if he rises up draft boards. Clearly he can catch. Clearly he can run good routes. It's just the physical aspects that I think teams have questions about.

Yes....?

The amount of yards he accumulated on those plays mean FAR less than the physicality he showed on them.

A good rule to live by is... never underestimate Justin Jefferson. Dude came through in the clutch for us so many times the past two seasons. 4 touchdowns in one half of a playoff game too..

Jefferson has been underrated his entire life and continues to exceed expectations. I do hope the Saints are able to pick him up late. If not him then hopefully a cornerback to fit in opposite of Lattimore. Doubtful they'll be able to pick up a franchise QB that late in the first round. Jefferson would be excellent in the Saints offense.

The only franchise QB won't last beyond the 1st pick of the draft

He definitely has better hands than some of those guys...definitely Ruggs and Reagor...not to mention Jeudy had a lot of big drops..but he’s a special talent

this shouldn’t need to be explained, but you’re a frickin moron if you can’t see that jefferson is a better receiver than most of the dudes on that list

I can't speak for the bottom 10, but this group has multiple years of excelling at their position, not just one season with a Heisman winning QB

1. Ceedee Lamb, Oklahoma
2. Jerry Jeudy, Alabama
3. Laviska Shenault Jr., Colorado
4. Henry Ruggs, Alabama
5. Tee Higgins, Clemson

Not to mention, the PFF people aren't "fricking morons". I can't say the same for ranters.

Jefferson is almost identical size of DJ Chark and was just as good or maybe even better in college.

I think he is doing pretty well in the NFL!
