NFL Player Comparision |Â Jeremy Maclin
2019 Rookie Draft Projection |Â Mid-Late First
Bottom Line
Jefferson has the skill set to be an effective starting receiver in the NFL. He has the height and leaping ability to make contested catches downfield. The 4.43 he ran at the combine was a huge boost in his stock, as it showed he has the wheels to make it in the league. He is a weapon to work the sideline and has the body control to make those tough catches. He has great hands and his inside/outside versatility would be a great fit on a team like the Eagles. My comp is actually a former Eagles pick, Jeremy Maclin. JJ has those smooth hips and breaks on his routes as well as the added benefit of being 2 inches higher. He has WR2 floor with WR1 potential.
