www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2020-nfl-draft-wide-receivers-watch-tee-higgins-making-case-as-most-complete-wr-prospect-in-the-class/I'm just posting the top 5 from the article. I will also post vids for each guy eventually. Read the article for the rest of the top 10. Please feel to post up sleeper WR's. 1. Jerry Jeudy, Alabama: Stock Up
Jeudy was a monster in Alabama's costly win over Mississippi State over the weekend. He finished with seven catches for 114 yards and had a long slant that looked like touchdown called back when he stiff armed the defender near the end zone and a facemask was called on him. Even though I expect Jeudy's explosiveness every week, I'm still always impressed with just how explosive he is. Big test for him and the rest of the Alabama receivers with Tua Tagovailoa on the shelf for the rest of the season. 2. Tee Higgins, Clemson: Stock Up
Early in the game, Higgins caught a slant for a touchdown in which he did a marvelous job getting inside position on the corner then simply boxing him out as the pass was thrown. His second touchdown was classic Higgins -- high-point the football in traffic on a wonderful demonstration of his body control. His third touchdown was an easy -- but still relatively long -- throw from Trevor Lawrence to the middle of the field in the end zone. Higgins created separation on the in-breaker. Higgins truly can do it all. 3. CeeDee Lamb, Oklahoma: Stock Steady
Lamb was held out of Oklahoma's huge comeback win over the Baylor Bears. He was in Waco with the Sooners but after pregame warmups it was determined he would be held out. 4. Ty Johnson, Minnesota: Stock Up
Johnson put forth a valiant effort in Minnesota's loss in Kinnick Stadium on Saturday with nine catches for 170 yards and a touchdown. Beyond those numbers, Johnson was open in the end zone on a play, but the ball was overthrown. His best catch came on a seam throw in which he took a sizable hit but held on. There was a drop in the red zone, but Johnson more than made up for it with catches at every level of the field in this one. 5. Henry Ruggs, Alabama: Stock Down
Ruggs only had three grabs for 39 yards in the win over the Bulldogs on Saturday and suffered bruised ribs in the process. Yikes. It has been a few games now since Ruggs hit a noticeably big play.

Tee Higgins is a name to watch in draft circles if we don't get the top WR in Jeudy

1 of my favorite WR Prospects, TCU's Jalen Reagor
One of the most explosive athletes in all of college football, even dating back to his long jump record in high school. Incredibly smooth, quick and fast wide receiver. Well-balanced and aware of his movements. Natural route runner who is developing as a route “salesman.” Difficult to cover on vertical routes because of his straight-line speed and flexibility. Special ability with the ball in his hands, sifting through small creases with ease. Ruins the angles of pursuing defenders. Once he gets into space, dynamic plays are inevitable. Well put together and develop frame, ripped in the upper body.
Super crafty and twitchy to create space for himself in tight quarters. Explosive and dynamic in terms of athletic ability and it leads to big plays on the field. Has impressive moments of body positioning at the catch point. Isn’t the biggest receiver but he has enough thickness to his frame to not be concerned with his size. Love his burst at the top of routes and there are some impressive moments of acceleration to and through the football on tape. Has adequate ball tracking skills and he generally makes good adjustments. Like his creativity post-catch to rip off yardage. Has illustrated the ability to make route adjustments when finding space in zone. Has showcased the ability to take aggressive angles in his release to beat press coverage.
Electric. He's super explosive in linear situations and showcases a phenomenal gas pedal -- will go from zero to sixty in no time and all and break pursuit angles. He's been utilized vertically and in the short/quick game as a weapon in tunnel and bubble screens. His field vision with the ball in his hands is special and he's got phenomenal short area quickness. Carries a good amount of muscle on his frame, too -- listed at 195 so he does bring some toughness and contact balance to boot.
Rare type of ability to reach top-end speed as quick as he wants to. Track background flashes immediately and he has speed to burn for days. Operates at an outrageously fast pace and it leaves defenders at a stand still because of his elusiveness. Rapid and light feet that enable him to easily run past second and third level tacklers to eat up yards in bunches.
Even though he’s rarely asked to, he’s fully capable of running multiple routes in the tree. At his best when able to get the ball in his hands as quickly as possible. His traits shined on jet sweeps, reverses, backfield handoffs, and tunnel screens. Innate field navigation skills that helped him make life easier on blockers by setting up the opposition to help create easier running lanes. Also had the ability of being able to make defenders miss in condensed areas or simply outrunning them even if faced with defeating nearly impossible angles.
Vertical speed and elusiveness help him create ample opportunities within routes. Straight-line momentum frequently terrifies the technique of defensive backs and he’s frequently given lots of cushion as a result. Able to quickly devour access given, there’s plenty of occurrences where lots of stress are placed on defenses once he begins to attack vertically no matter the depth or area of the route.
One of the most dangerous playmakers in all of college football. Explosive doesn’t begin to describe how lethal he is with the ball in his hands. Runs like every reception is a part of a backyard football game – makes a ton of people miss any way he can. Productive deep threat who can just blow by corners with elite vertical speed and acceleration. Has a wide array of effective double moves in his toolbox. Shows a ton of potential as a dynamic route runner with his foot quickness and sharpness against man coverage. Just a physical player in all facets of the game – not fazed against bigger cornerbacks and thrives against contact. Possesses elite balance and play strength… bounces off tacklers on a consistent basis.

This guy will be a day 2 pick and my face besides Cee Dee Lamb Fix the line early and get this guy opposite Slayton with our style offense and we now had a top 5 offense |

If Reagor is there with pick 67 I will attempt to do a backflip in my living room. I’ll fail. But I’ll try nonetheless.
But (I’m not a Debbie downer, I swear), all 31 teams see what we do, and then some. We’ll have to use the 2nd rd pick. Which I’m fine with.
I’m prepared for some things not to get addressed “early”. Just too many needs. But, adding Thomas, Reagor, and Conklin to Bark, Shep, Slayton and year 2 Jones would make for some entertaining viewing.
However, it’s becoming clear that it’ll be another draft/FA cycle in 2021 before I see a truly complete, balanced, contender-level roster. But (😁) I do think, no matter what, we need to steer into the strength of this draft and get the X wr. If it’s at the cost of the OL or pass rush after the first rd, so be it.*
*subject to change given any alterations in the draft status. But, looks like top 4 (Thomas/young) is the probability.

Guy knows how to get open, come to the ball, and run routes. He is not a burner but in today game . Quick passes seem to work. If we can get him with our 4th pick, we can get rid of Tate. |

More top ene speed than Tate and can play outside. Reminds me.of Victor Cruz (a lot of those type guys this year).. A.qb with precision accuracy and ball placement skills like J0nes has and this guy has a monster career . Him opposite Slayton is probably enough to force the desireable 2 deep safety look this team wants to see to feature Barkley behind an improved o line |

His speed is jaw dropping....can't wait for the Ruggs combine 40. I think he and Reagor crack a 4.3 40 this year Another player who has depending on who you hear from is a bit unpolished... These are guys you can design certain packages around for what they do great,including jet sweeps,bubble screens,deep comebacks,sluggo option routes and fly patterns... If Reagor hits a 4.29 wonder if he ends up in the 1st,and which reciever drops if any I'm seeing Justin Jefferson being taken at 37 lately..... Would love that pick ae well(a taller guy with dynamic skills ) |

Guys like jujuan Jennings, micheal Pittman jr provide great value late and both have excellent skill sets. Either would be an excellent pickup.

Devin Duvernay from Texas is one of the most underrated WRs in this class IMO. He is a bit short at only 5'10" but man can this kid play. He also ran a 4.40 in the 40. He is also Kyler Murray's cousin, I bet those were some fun backyard football games growing up.

I like the Ty Johnson kid. He’s a player. Thought about him in the 4th if I go OT not WR in the first in my mock.
OR
I also like Bryan Edwards WR SC in the 4th.
