I guess one thing about Jefferson is that nobody thinks he'll be a #1 receiver. But really the only players that will be drafted and expected to compete as a #1 receiver are Lamb, Jeudy, Shenault, and Higgins.

They did that article on him a while ago, no idea what it says behind a pay wall but I guess something like all "joe burrow little justin jefferson" in his production or something.
He may very well not go first 10 receivers in draft, I mean he could be #11 and still be a 2nd/3rd round pick very easily which is very good...but I wouldnt bet against the guy who has been bet against every step of the way here. He had very good catch numbers this year, few drops. Certainly created a lot for himself. Made so many contested catches. Big play after big play. Chase to me a step better but a guy who runs the routes Jefferson does has a very nice use in the NFL.

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!

Umm. They also don't have Moss on the list but have Sullivan as a top 10 TE. Lost all cred there.

Jefferson has more yard LAST YEAR than Shenault and Ruggs had this year.
See Omar Bayless. 1600+ yards, but you don't see him on any major 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
Jefferson's 2018 season was better than Shenault's 2019 or Ruggs' 2018 & 2019.

Jefferson was actually really good in 2018, which is something you don't seem to know while being super snotty about it.

We'll see what he does in the NFL.

Sure, but his physical evidence last year was pretty decent. He was the only LSU player with a pulse against Bama last year.

Chark ran a 4.34 forty and had a 40 inch vert. And was still the 8th wr picked. JJ will no doubt be a top ten wr if he puts up those numbers

That's because what he's got is on the inside of him. He has got a determined will to succeed,much like Michael Thomas. In every big game he showed up,plus he's got the physical skills. That list is one man's opinion, even if it's a reputable publication. Even NFL GM's make bad draft decisions.

Don't dispute any of that. But Sullivan being "freak of nature" doesn't make him a top 10 TE. And fyi, I'm not trying to tear him down at all. Just stating that Moss should be ahead of him on that list.

You're right. Comparing Jefferson to a guy who played in the Sun Belt makes sense.
Cooper Kulp, who finished 11th in the NFL for total receiving yards & 2nd in total TDs in 2019, went to Eastern Washington
The conference they played in doesn't always matter in the NFL. In fact, most times it does not at all.
