I’m by no means an insider I just happen to know members of JJ’s family. From what I’m being told he has been told he will be a top 20 pick, several teams have already told him if he’s there he’s their pick. Denver, LV and Philly are the most interested except for one team who has led the pack in interest. The Saints, but they believe Carolina will take him as Joe Brady thinks he is better than CGM. They also said CSP never entertained trading for Burrow as he believes it was the surrounding talent that made him successful. He specifically said to JJ that he was rated as the best prospect in their board from LSU and their top receiver. With all this being said where do you think he’ll be picked and what would you think it would take trade wise to get him?
A look at each team above the Saints
Cincy, Wash, Det,NYG, Mia, LAC-don’t see any way any of these go his direction.
Car-link to Brady and need for true #1 receiver is there. Think they have more need on D side of ball.
Ari- no need loaded at WR
Jax-could be a possibility but they seem to draft defense in the 1st round consistently
Cle-they have enough LSU receivers for their liking. OBJ may be on the way out so there could be an opening here. Just see them going oline.
NYJ-definitely a need but they have a lot of needs. Could be a potential spot for a team looking to add picks and trade down
LV-Who knows with Gruden and Maylock they play with a different draft board than most. Their first draft looks pretty good so far. The need for a WR is there.
SF-Need is there. FA losses, Draft picks minus Samuel not panning out have left a hole at the position.
Tampa-think they are set a WR
Denver-another team with WR needs but think they could also move back to gain picks. If they stay I think this could be a landing spot for him.
Atl-no need here and. I way they trade with the Saints
Dallas-Have a need but also have invested heavily in the position. With the loss of their C
I look for them to trade back and beef up thy position. Jerry has learned that lines win games.
If Den passes on JJ this could be the spot to make a move and jump up.
Mia-still too early for a WR with as many needs as they have.
LV-see above
Philly, Minn, NE all would take him if available I believe.
Personally I think a deal could be done with Dallas. You could package our 1st and Nick Easton to move up seven spots. It would be beneficial to both teams.
