BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~93 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~85
ANALYSIS: David Njoku set career-highs in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdowns last season when he caught 81 passes for 882 yards and six TDs.
So why might he be overdrafted this season? Well, some of Njoku's biggest games last season came late in the year with Joe Flacco under center, including his only two 100+ receiving-yard games against Chicago and the New York Jets.
But in the six games with Deshaun Watson under center, Njoku averaged just 4.2 receptions, 38.3 yards, and 0.2 TDs per game. Watson's play was very uneven in 2023 and there is some growing concern that he might not be able to return to the form that we saw from him in Houston.

The other big concern here with Njoku is the arrival of Jerry Jeudy in Cleveland. With Amari Cooper and Jeudy likely to eat first in the passing game, Njoku may see fewer targets than he did last season.
This is a run-first offense in Cleveland, and while Njoku is a very talented player coming off a great year, don't reach for him in drafts!
