I trust Simms in a lot of things, he’s been spot on the last 4 years in these rankings for players, incredible. He was the only analyst who was high on Jefferson and Herbert.

This is legit football talk! I know Chris played for Tampa in the NFL and bc he was pro he should know the game. What I'm talking about is the host. He seems to know some football. He knows more than any other of these goofy debate people on TV like Stephen A., Max, or Skip. This guy is at least competitive in his talk and can keep up. Stephen A. is just like, "the man can ball". That is the best he can come up with on his shows. Nothing totally wrong with that other than those guys can debate but you can't take it serious bc they truly know little about how the game is played and what is needed to play plus be good at it. The man can ball doesn't mean anything to me.

[@flowthrupranayama]

MUCH RESPECT TO SIMMS. This man is not a parrot. Take note, that this list NOT having Jeudy in the top 5 takes brass balls, and I TOTALLY AGREE WITH HIM ON THIS. Reminds me of the Calvin Ridley buzz a couple years ago. Ridley is a college star who couldn't create seperation in NFL and Jeudy will be better, but a mini-bust IMO if taken in the first round.

[@patrickfessler1233]

Jeudy will be the best receiver. He gets open and creates separation all the time. I don't understand why everyone is starting to sleep on him.

I still have jeudy as my 2, and I'm definitely not an analyst and never played the game besides pickup. But there are flaws in jeudys game for sure. I tend to knock drops a lot. But that was strictly 2019 tape. In 2018 he was much better. Still, I wanted to rank him below Higgins, Reagor, Tyler Johnson of all people. But couldn't do it cuz everyone that are smarter than me when it comes to these things have jeudy #1 off the board. But this is my first year officially 'trying' to scout, so I tend to defer. We all don't know, let check back in a year or two

SO CHRIS SIMMS you said less than a month ago "Claypool is a first round talent"(which I strongly disagree with), and according to this Jeudy was your 6 I believe... So does that mean Claypool is your 7th wide receiver and that you believe all 7 belong to go in the first round? Also, you think Claypool is better than guys like Reagor, Mims, Pittman, Shenault, & Aiyuk? P.S. HOT TAKE: Higgins is going to have a fall similar to Jaelen Strong. Higgins runs acerage speed, with poor routes, had routine drops at times, and really did not show up against good teams. He is a contested catch artist.

You must not have watched Lsu the last two years. He and chase both broke the td record last year, and in 2018 he was there number one receiver. Dude ran a 4.4 and catches everything he sees. Jamar chase will go top 5 next year and Jefferson will go top 20 or 25 this year. Lsu has 6 or 7 guys that could be first rounders. They will all be top 2 rounds though. 5 in first rounds a lock, and Clyde Edwards hellair and Loyd cushenbary are locks for round 2 at the latest. Freaking unreal talent on that Lsu team. They had 16 players at the combine. Myles Brennan will be the qb next year and he has a way stronger arm and quicker release then burrow. If he's as good as the reports say, then they could repeat. Still have 3 5 star receivers and rbs on the team. They will be great on o again, specially with getting arik Gilbert who won Gatorade player of the year for the whole country. He's a flex tight end that will play wr too. He's the highest rated tight end in recruiting history. Jamar chase is back and he is no doubt the best2021 guy, he's the record holder for all sec single season records. Then u have 5star terrace marshal who is a dog, he was the wr that caught the game clinching high point catch In the Natty. If he didn't get hurt he would have been Lsus 3rd 1000 yard receiver from last season. With the same offense from last year, that Steve ensminger ran last year along side Joe Brady, Lsu will be dangerous year in and out. I think we all know that Lsu will be hell every year now that they finally opened up the playbook.
