ESPN and SEC Network analyst Chris Doering was on SEC Network today discussing which receiver in the 2020 NFL Draft class he thought would be the most successful.
Throughout the 2019 college football season many believed Alabama’s Jerry Jeudy would be not only the most successful receiver from this Crimson Tide team, but of the upcoming draft class as well.
Doering was quick to mention an Alabama product as his top tide receiver in this draft, but it was not Jeudy. It was Henry Ruggs III.
The analyst wasted no time talking about Ruggs’ strengths and what he would offer an NFL team in his rookie season.
“This is a guy that has elite sprinter speed, was disappointed at the combine by running 4.27, but he is not your typical sprinter,” says Doering. “This is a guy that runs excellent routes, has the ability to adjust to the ball, has great body control in the air.”
He acknowledges the presence of other great receivers in this draft class, but holds strong on his belief that Ruggs is the best of them all.
“As much as I like all of these guys, I truly believe that Henry Ruggs is the most dangerous,” claims Doering.
There is still a lot of uncertainty surrounding which receiver will be the first off the board for round No. 1 – it has seemingly come down to Jeudy, Ruggs and Oklahoma’s CeeDee Lamb.
