Ja'Marr Chase The Top Receiving Prospect
4 years agoLouisiana State University wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase is the consensus No. 1 wide receiver in this year's very good receiving class despite opting not to play in 2020 due to COVID-19. A top draft evaluator called Chase the "best wide receiver prospect since Julio Jones." Chase is truly a special receiving talent and has the ability to immediately become fantasy relevant in his rookie season as his team's top receiver, wherever he lands in this month's draft. He will surely come off the board in the first round. The young pass-catcher is great at tracking the deep ball and makes adjustments on the fly while displaying top-notch speed for a player of his size. Chase set the SEC record in 2019 for receiving yards in 2019 with 1,780 and touchdowns (20) in a single season. It'd be a surprise if he's not the first wideout off the board later this month.
