Winner: WR Justin Jefferson, LSU
Jefferson was a receiver that had a borderline first/second-round grade coming into the 2020 NFL Combine but should have firmly pushed himself into the first round with his performance.
He didn’t put up any numbers that would cause any cartoonish double takes but he showed that his tape was no fluke. He ran a 4.43-second 40-yard dash and had a 37.5-inch vertical jump, which puts him near the top of both drills among this wide receiver class.
But more importantly, he showed his skills as a wide receiver in the pass-catching drills. Jefferson was aggressive in catching the football, attacking passes and showing off a certain swagger you have to love out of a guy that projects more as a possession receiver in the NFL.
