DRAFT PICK: 1st Round (#23 Overall Pick)
TEAM: Jacksonville Jaguars
ROOKIE DRAFT ANALYSIS: Jacksonville selected Brian Thomas Jr. with the 23rd overall pick, adding him to a room of pass catchers already containing Christian Kirk, Gabe Davis, and Evan Engram. On paper, there is room for Thomas to emerge as the go-to target for Trevor Lawrence. However, it’s not that easy.

Thomas saw little production in his college career until this past season when he caught 68 passes for 1,177 yards and 17 touchdowns. Despite the ideal size-speed combo that landed him in Round 1, Thomas profiles as more of a deep threat than anything else.

He is not the best route runner and lacks run-after-catch threat. While he is raw as a complete receiver and could eventually develop, only having one year of college production matters. Additionally, Lawrence has not consistently lived up to his status as a former No. 1 overall pick. Draft with caution.
