re: Rank these draft eligible WRs

I don’t doubt it.

But Chase dropped a much higher % of passes than Jeudy this year.

Shenault seems like he a huge boom-bust potential. He's so inconsistent.

He has to work on his polish and route running most definitely.

I can’t shake the feeling that Jeudy will fall JUST a bit in the draft end up not being the 1st WR taken.

For years now he’s been assumed the 1st WR taken in a stacked class where he is far from the most physically impressive prospect.

I’ve seen the stat you’ve posted here that shows Chase as having a high drop %, and I’m skeptical of its accuracy. Now, since our offense doesn’t automatically punt if we drop a pass on first or second down, I get why it could be easy for me to overlook some drops even having watched every game. But since it’s a somewhat subjective stat that differs depending on the source, I think it could be unreliable.

If the stat is accurate, the high number of contested catches he makes indicates that his hands are not as unreliable as his drop percentage would imply. But if we’re being honest, the reason people in this board assume Jeudy has a higher drop percentage than Chase is because Jeudy had two in the LSU game with everyone watching and Chase hasn’t had a big drop in that kind of spotlight.

He is a great route runner. That means a ton to NFL GMS.

Lamb is a great YAC WR. But he is not gonna be able to do that in the NFL as well as be did in the bib 12.

Yeah TBH my biggest fear is how mediocre Big 12 WRs have translated lately.

Can’t even think of the last guy who was an all pro or elite WR from the Big 12

Lockett and Washington have been solid. Hollywood had a solid rookie year. Amendola and Sterling Shepard have had productive careers. Wes Welker was all-pro or near all-pro for a couple of years.

Dez Bryant was probably the last elite guy from the big 12 though. Texas being down, Oklahoma churning through a bunch of slot guys and no one else really having a solid foundation save for Oklahoma State is what does it. Big 12 teams recruit Texas hard and Texas football is all system stuff that is basically play calling and execution of the same damn offense.
