Ja’Marr Chase was easily the best wide receiver prospect coming out of the 2021 NFL Draft, and in some eyes, it wasn’t particularly close. Chase has all the tools and elite traits to not only be a the number one receiver on an NFL team, he could become one of the best receivers in the entire league.

Chase is a big-bodied receiver who does an excellent job at understanding defensive tendencies within his routes. Chase finds open space and more often than not, knows where his quarterback wants him to be.

If Burrow and Chase can continue their magical connection in Cincinnati, Chase can be WR1 for the Bengals.

Even in year one.
