I'd like to see Jeudy's hands become a little more consistent. He's prone to some concentration drops on perfect passes. It continued during the spring.

However, what makes him so special is the way he accelerates through the catch. That's just a rare trait. He accelerates through the catch to create that last little bit of separation, and he can do it on any route - vertical or horizontal.

Slimm have you gotten a look at Warren Jackson of Colorado State, yet?

Can't help but notice him when you watch Preston Williams. Jackson was only a sophomore. He's bigger than Preston at about 6'6", with some serious skills. You might even look at Warren and say he's better.

Reminds me a little bit of Brandon Coleman. But he looks even better than that. A guy that big that is quick enough with good enough body control to work the slot, pretty interesting.

This was probably his biggest game.

I remember him catching a couple of touchdowns on us a few years ago when we couldn't match up with him in the redzone. Kinds reminds me of De'Runnya Wilson a little bit. He's a tough matchup in the redzone for CB's because of his size. I can give him more of a look though.

Pretty clear red zone weapon, as you say, but I'd be surprised if he's as slow or limited as De'Runnya Wilson

I see some speed on the kid and I definitely see a lot of body control.

Wow good memory though I had not actually seen those two touchdowns he caught in 2017 over Anthony Averett and Trevon Diggs.

If Miami gets some halfway decent QB play this year, Jeff Thomas will be tremendous . . . And he has what should finally be a consistent guy opposite of him in KJ Osborne (Richards was always hurt).

Tracks the ball so damn well for a guy out of the slot. Plays bigger than his size and yea he’s lightning. Can’t blame him for wanting to get out of the program after the shitshow offense we saw last year.

Think 1-7 have a legitimate chance to be better than any of the 2019 WR's.

Surprised Tylan Wallace is just receiving modest hype to this point.

Jeudy is the best route runner in football

Lamb was a more interesting player the Brown at Oklahoma

Terry is extremely explosive as a player but super inconsistent

I'll take all the Reagor stock, too. Super versatile, great athlete.

I haven't been doing this anywhere near as long as Slimm or CK, but I've watched all the top 100 prospects and more since 2013 class of Keenan Allen and the Tennessee guys. Jeudy is far and away the best receiver prospect IMO in the last 9 years.

If anybody watched Torry Holt at N.C. State, that's what Jeudy looks like. But Torry had even better hands.

That was before my time. I remember him as a kid on the greatest show on turf.

Tbh I don't think he's far and away the best WR in this class. I think, at this point, he looks like the best, but the group is too good for him run away from them before they've even played their Jr years.

Torry had a bigger body as well, but I agree. He looks a lot like Torry Holt in the way he plays.

Still need to check out Toney, but Thomas, Bowden, and Spielman are all really nice - dynamic with the ball, track it well, show some real promise as route runners.
