Farrar made it clear that he is talking about prime-Brown, not the recent version of the receiver we’ve seen. “Jeudy is unquestionably the best route-runner in this draft class, but don’t minimize his speed and ability to create vertical plays,” writes Farrar.

Tua Tagovailoa, QB – Drew Brees

Ironically, Nick Saban passed on Drew Brees while coaching the Miami Dolphins. Now, his own quarterback is being compared to Brees and is projected to go to Miami. “Tagovailoa has the ability to run a timing and rhythm passing game either in the pocket or on the move,” cites Farrar as the main draw for the comparison.
