Just how good will Jefferson be?
I think there’s a good chance Jefferson shows at least glimpses of talent for the Vikings in 2020.
Too bad Minnesota likely needs more than that from him if the team wants to be successful. Bleacher Report projects Jefferson to get 950 yards and six touchdowns next season. I’m not so sure that will be enough. If Jefferson has those numbers, the third wide receiver on the team will likely need to do better than Bisi Johnson and Chad Beebe did in 2019.
Jefferson will be good in the slot and at times out wide. Rookies tend to come in and not take the league by storm right away. Diggs had 1,130 yards and six touchdowns in 2019. Hopefully Jefferson can replace at least most of that production.
