Yes i agree but i was just worried about the blocking aspect of it. I just feel like they would be getting tossed around

Like others have stated, I too would LOVE LOVE LOVE to another speedster on this team so we can try to go toe to toe with KC through the air (make some must-watch TV in the process). HOWEVER, I do not want another Deonte Thompson. Give me a guy who's quick-footed and can run routes.

Kj hamler is stupidly explosive with his route running.

Ouch. Van jefferson is one of my favorite mid-round target. Wonder how far he falls

Doctors informed Florida WR Van Jefferson that he has a Jones fracture in his right foot that was found during his combine physical, per sources. Jefferson will undergo surgery next week in Green Bay with Dr. Robert Anderson. Jefferson is projected to be sidelined 6-8 weeks.

ooft - he needed a good time to cement him to actually go on day 2 and continue the momentum from the senior bowl

With all the receivers in this class this prob drops him to day 3
the timing for him is bad because he's likely not going to be able to do any workouts and definitely wont be able to do his pro-day so going to be hard for him to persuade any team that might have doubts about his speed which is literally the biggest question about him so this is a tough break
maybe a team still loves him and it only takes one but i would not be surprised if this pushes him for sure into day 3
Ok i was just making sure i was watching correctly
a couple of things keep him out of that top group of 3 for me but he's certainly as dynamic as any of them...
but he has some drops that come from looking up field to quick but they're still too frequent and maybe its due to his lack of production and targets but he sometimes allows CBs back into the down after he beats them - needs to get better maintaining separation and stacking downfield etc.
also wish he was a bit more consistent against press
but the common thread for all those things is consistency and that is probably at least partially attributable to that awful QB play

I definitely worry about some of his drops. Dont like big play receivers squandering big play opportunities
it's why henry ruggs is a unicorn - 1 drop all year despite being that explosive and fast

I love me a WR with 10 inch hands.

I really like Justin Jefferson. Would give Lamar someone he can trust anywhere on the field.
i think its just a long speed - he was still right up there in the vert jump (only other drill ive seen so far) - we'll have to see the broad jump and 3 cone and short shuttle etc but not worried about aiyuk yet albeit that 4.5 is unexpected
jefferson i think part of it is that his athleticism is so easy not to see because he's in the slot and can often get free releases against off coverage so its harder to gauge that speed sometimes - my only concern with jefferson at any point in this process has been the fact that he plays exclusively in the slot
