honestly probably not, I see him in the second round. There are just so many studs at that position coming out this year.

Late first or mid second depending on how the draft goes

Idk if he’s a 1st round kinda guy. He doesn’t have elite size or speed but he is a fantastic all around WR with sticky fingers. So a team like the Pats Saints or Packers would really use his skill set and he will thrive in the league.

If he is there at 24, the Saints would be fools not to pick him with the help they need at WR.

If he's still there at 24 when the Saints pick.. I say why not. I think he'll be gone before then but we are in serious need of a #2 receiver to help MT.

Probably depends on combine. Good one and he'll fly up the boards. I'll bet he surprises teams with his athleticism.

The speed is the only thing keeping him out of the 1st round, the 40 will be big for him.

However I don't think his size is a problem. 6'3 190 and an extremely quick and decisive route runner. Has also shown he can read defenses easily by how well he ran his options routes.

Just based on measurables, I'm not sure an NFL team will take him that early. I can see mid-2nd.

The same could be said for Jarvis Landry and I’m sure the panthers regret taking Kelvin Benjamin in the first round because he had NFL size while Davante Adams, Allen Robinson and Landry went in the back half of the second round. Jefferson will be a steal for any team that drafts him in the second round

Depth of the position for the draft hurts a lot of these dudes stock.

Could see a lot of the projected first round WRs going 2-3rd round simply bc teams think they can wait and still grab a productive WR rather than spend a high pick on one

If any of the Top5 LSU players are still on the board, the saints need to take them. They need DBs and WR

Yes, the kid caught over a 100 passes in college ball, that's impressive. All 3 of these kids were impressive with Chase being the best amongst the 3 and he had to come back with being a soph or else he's gone and drafted in the 1st too.

He was one of the best receivers in the country hands down.
