What are the chances that BTJ is a better NFL WR than Harrison, Nabers, or Odunze?

BTJ is a physical freak and very under-appreciated by the media because of those other guys. However, the NFL combine has shown just how much potential he has with his height, size, and blazing speed. He might surprise everyone and be the best WR out of the entire group in this draft.

Reminds me of Jarvis Landry, another great Tiger.

The guy is a 1st rounder and still moving up the boards. I don’t think the “under rated” narrative has legs. This is just a GREAT class for WRs at the top.

All he does….is catch touchdowns.

25% of his catches this year were for six.

Well I guess this kind of thing is pretty relative and abstract anyway. It just seems that the other 3 guys are talked about before Thomas. Especially Harrison and Nabers.

He’s much bigger and faster than Landry.

He very well could be with that kind of speed and height. He's a TD beast in the red zone. Great on down field throws too. Nabers was a killer on the short routes after the catch though in addition to all the other positives, so he is tough to beat as well. He led the nation in yards per game and BTJ led the nation on TDs. They were a special combo.

Poor comparison. Those two are not much alike at all other than being good WRs.

yep, and I wanna say more athletic than JL, but Jarvis was pretty athletc in his days. He didn't have Brian Thomas speed, but Jarvis could run with a football after catch and had hands like glue.

Many time it depends on what organization drafts him. If Harrison goes to the cardinals and BJT goes to a team like the Bengals or Jacksonville BJT could have a better start. The Cardniaks are a terribly run franchise. Sam goes for Jayden. Klingsbury in DC is a good match with Jayden. I bet he would rather play there than Chicago if he could speak to it.

Does he remind people of Terrell Owens in his size or am I way off?

Would be amazing if he is still there when Cincy picks. I don't know what Cincy's needs are but it seems like it would hard to pass on BTJ. Him and Chase would be pretty cool.

He needs to bulk up 15 lbs and keep his speed to be like Terrell Owens. It’s ok if he’s not Terrell Owens though since Owens is likely one of the 5 greatest wide receivers of all time.

The television media just has limited time & opportunity to talk about anything more than the top guys.

Twitter is a great place for information & BTJ gets his equal due there.

Can he be better than those guys? Certainly has the physical talent too. And I think there are parts of his skillset that are untapped
