I’ve never seen a WR move like this

[nico002]

I am kind of shocked he didn’t blow up the combine. His on the field quickness is absurd. His ability to change directions while what appears to be him GAINING speed is absurd. You can’t make a WR in madden run routes like this... this guy is so obviously special it’s stupid.

[Patriot Killa]

He has an extra gear where he accelerates as he’s making a catch. It’s hard to get a hold of him. He’s not Ruggs fast but he’s so finesse and shifty.

[LAD_Brooklyn]

Can he run or pass block?

[lauderdale jet]

He should be the pick. If hes there - you have to take him

I’ll understand if they take a tackle - but this kid is going to be a star

 

[Paradis]

Say what you want, but it's hard not gush about the plays he's made. Jeudy has the natural ability to manipulate the DB -- and he's damn responsive to what is developing in front of his eyes... you can spend a lifetime with coaches and still not be able to read/react at that speed. Its genetic. 

 

He reminds me of Dalvin Cook - the way he played his position. Never crushed any measurables, but he shifts and glides around tacklers like it's backyard football. 

[PS17]

Antonio Brown comes to mind. Jeudy looks a little less explosive though.

Fixed that for you. 

[Melly-Mel]

He definitely plays much faster in the game than his combine numbers show.  Some guys are much fasterbwith the ball, and or in the game

[GreenFish]

He’s that kid who always won in tag. The kid where the entire school yard needed to join in to catch him. His ability to read defenders is absurd. 
 

You kind have to look up RBs to find players that read and react like that. Marshal Faulk maybe?

It’s not fair to Judge Jeudy by his measurables alone.

[RedBeardedSavage]

He's clearly a great prospect. I wouldn't be upset at all if he was a Jet. 

I just think we'd be going agains the grain in this draft we went WR round 1 and tackle in the mid rounds. If all of our top graded OT's are gone at 11, then I can understand and fully support a Jeudy selection. Otherwise I'd rather have Wills, Thomas or maybe even Josh Jones in the first and take my chances with the surplus WR prospects that will be available in rounds 2-3.

And I'm willing to take two WR's with our three picks in those rounds.

When you consider Sams ability to improvise outside the pocket and Jeudys tremendous ability to change directions,  the two of them could become special combination, like Manning and Wayne a few years back.  As much as I love Ruggs, if we take Jeudy there is no way I can complain.   Btw if we don't take him I can see him going to the 49ers and his career emulating another "Jerry" at least to a degree.   

[SomebodytoAnybody47]

All this gushing on Juedy and the WRs means one thing....Jets are going Defense. 

[JetBlue]

Jerry Jeudy in the first, AGG, Claypool or Michael Pittman in the 3rd then Joe Reed or Quez Watkins (WR/Returner) in the 5th.  Add those pieces to Crowder, Perriman, Herndon, Griffen, Bell (out of the backfield) and our offense has the potential to be as good as any in football.  Assuming we can grab two quality OT and our FA signings are at least adequate and an upgrade over their counterparts from a year ago.

All depends on what you consider as elite talent. and who is available at 11.  Jeudy more than likely will be the best offensive player available at 11.  It would be hard to pass on him (or even Ruggs) to settle for a OT that is less highly rated by Joe D.    Curious; when is the last time this team drafted a true # 1 receiver?   Last one we had was Brandon Marshall and he was already on the decline.

I was settled on Ruggs as my WR 1. You make a great point about Jeudy. Now I’m like sh*t. Who would be better on our team? I’d be thrilled with either one. I’m to the point that I’m crossing my fingers we draft one of them.

We’re desperate for offensive tackles. Both Fant and Edoga are gambles and they’re our starters on paper right now.

There are 4-5 good offensive tackle prospects with round one grades.

Offensive tackle is a premium position. 

There are a number of projected 2nd or 3rd round WR’s that have high grades. 

But probably most importantly, if you believe in your quarterback, which I do in ours, then I think a good quarterback with good protection can elevate a solid cast around them.

The “he’s a slot guy” thing Gives me pause- is this a concern? 
 

I grew up in the 80’s and still think of prototypical tall outside receivers

[Greenbloodblitz]

We already have a slot receiver

He's a football player.  An extraordinary  route runner.  And an instinctive one who can quickly size up a situation and change course on a dime.  You can't teach what he does on a football field.  

As I've said before...OT may be the most needed position for the Jets.  But Jeudy is the most needed player...especially for Darnold and Gase's passing game. 

JD can get us in this draft between picks 2-4, a couple of OTs to fortify the OL, and give Darnold enough solid protection.  I truly believe he can.  But IMO, he can't get Jets a more valuable offensive weapon then Jeudy.   Last year's Jets 32nd ranked O needs a dangerous difference maker.  Someone opposing defenses need to worry about.  A player that Darnold...on the move...looking downfield...can rely upon to get open.  Jets need to create an offense that's more in balance with GW's D...if they are to be competitive in the wide open AFCE.  

Also want to point out...this isn't Darnold's first rodeo.  He's not a helpless neophyte.  Give him weapons and I believe he's ready to take it to the next level.

Again....JMO...Jeudy is the most valuable pick if Jets stay at #11.

I feel you. I keep going back and forth between the two of them.... we will probably take an OT or trade down and it will be a moot point.  ?

[Vader]

He’s got Barry Sanders moves. 
 

Would love to see how a double slot formation with Crowder and Jeudy together works... because that’s the position he would likely have to play.

Good points.  I guess it will come down to how JD values his board and whom is available at 11.  I am starting to warm up to the possibility to a trade down.

Bigtime!! I really hope we don't take this guy.... just got a bad feeling about him. 5'11 and 185 lbs. He ran circles around the kids in college. In the NFL he's going to get banged up and he can't run backwards anymore.

 Also seems to much like an OBJ attitude diva to me. Just my opinion but I'm being honest and that's a turnoff. I don't like that type of player.

Go on YouTube and watch an interview with Jerry jeudy. Then watch Antonio Gandy Golden... or Cee Dee Lamb.

Who do you want to listen to week in and week out? Sorry but I have a lot of time invested in this team. I'm not a whore and I actually want to like the guys that we draft and bring in here to represent our team.

Besides Jamal Adams has already cornered the market on the center of the universe! LOL.

 thanks anyway I'll pass.

[jmat321]

In terms of the receiving corps - a big physical split end is more of a need IMO.  6’4” - 6’5” type of guy who is open when he isn’t and can put a db on his ass when stalk blocking on the perimeter.

He has a cool name, that a plus.

No, but he can get open fast enough to let Darnold release ball before the pass rush gets to him.

It's great that I knew exactly who you were talking about before I opened this thread. 

Jeudy will only fall to us because NFL execs fall in love with size or elite speed. 

Jeudy's worst case scenario is Keenan Allen. So unless you are getting an OL that you think is a lock stud (which might also be available at 11), it will be hard to pass on Jeudy. 

[Dupe]

There was similar talk about Peter Warwick. Coles was so much better rounds later.
