Will Jaguars prevail over Cowboys. Sims caught 32 passes last year and Harmon had a promising rookie season in 2019 before an ACL tear forced him to miss last year. He committed to Stanford, and although red shirted in his freshman year, became an increasingly important part of the offense after that, catching 63 passes for 1,059 yards in 2018 (top 5 in the nation). [5:16] Cooper lines up outside and fakes a break outside, causing Jalen Mills to bite hard on the fake, and leaving Cooper wide open when he redirects inside. However, Richardson is also a good route runner and is quick and nuanced enough to operate well on all routes in the route tree. Not all the players listed will make the team, and I might easily miss especially for the Redskins division rivals players who will make the Week 1 roster, but this list should give some idea of the relative depth of the four positional groups. In addition to that, he had a bit of a college injury history, missing several games to injury his sophomore year, then redshirting his entire junior year due to a torn ACL. As mentioned before, hes a bit small for a WR and can be pressed at the line. Safeties play a critical role in today's NFL. This ends up being a running play for Adrian Peterson, who breaks his run to McLaurins side of the field. You could make a case for what the Dallas Cowboys are building in the NFC East, with Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup. The Cowboys 2018 season turned around completely when they traded for Amari Cooper, who, playing in his 5th year option season in 2019, is in a contract year and looking to get paid going forward. Whenever defenses left him 1-on-1 against non-elite CBs, he was able to get open for a big play, though he was often missed by inaccurate Redskins QBs early in the season. I respectfully disagree with one aspect of this otherwise fine gallery Jeff Chadiha has put together of the NFL's top 10 wide receivers. Dak breaks to his right (Coopers side) almost immediately after the snap despite little pressure and is looking for Cooper the whole time.

When I reviewed McLaurins college tape for this ranking last year, I noted that he was a tremendous athlete, good route runner, and a willing and physical blocker. Ceedee Lamb is the best performing rookie by some distance. Although he managed more than 1000 receiving yards in each of his first two seasons, most of those yards seemed to come in about 30% of his games. Richardsons negatives almost entirely have to do with his strength and injury history. The 2018 version of this article focused on players like Odell Beckham Jr., Josh Doctson, Paul Richardson, Jamison Crowder, Terrance Williams, Allen Hurns, Cole Beasley, Nelson Agholor and Mike Wallace - none of whom will be discussed in this article, just two years later. The Dallas Cowboys are the only team that has all the same faces. Former Jacksonville Jaguar Allen Hurns, who hasnt been able to break 500 yards in a season since 2015, when he put up 1,031 yards and 10 TDs, is probably the headliner of the bottom half of the depth chart. He primarily (though not exclusively) seemed to be used as a deep threat option in Seattle. [9:18] Tate lines up outside this time, fakes an out route, but then redirects to run deep and accelerate quickly while CB Anthony Browns head is turned to the QB, allowing him to get yards of separation and an easy catch that he turns into a TD. He is also a much tougher and higher-effort player than I had previously realized, able to hang on to make contested catches, and often reaching forward after contact to gain a few extra yards. He loses close to the line of scrimmage to CBs like Josh Norman who are even more physical than he is. Again, Adams' impact is felt beyond just the box score. Cooper again runs down the sideline and seems to get open by selling the deep route, but breaking it back to shake loose. Last year, the Giants fan site, Big Blue View, published a very good series on the topic, What do scouts look for?. Slayton doesnt fake inside before breaking outside, he doesnt fight for inside leverage while running down the sideline, he doesnt body out Gilmore when he jumps for the ball, he doesnt grip the ball strong enough that Gilmore cant knock it out of his hands. However, he has a limited route tree and doesnt show much subtlety in terms of using fakes, counters, leverage, body-positioning, or physicality to get open. Washington Football Team Terry McLaurin has solidified himself as one of the best young receivers in the NFL. But those wide receivers that have been most successful of late early in their career are the Route Runners. These are guys who are exceptional coming out of their breaks without losing too much speed, have repetitive and repeatable routes time after time so their quarterback knows where they are going to be and can create separation by setting up a cover man and making every route look the same from the beginning. Winslow Townson-USA TODAY Sports Flowers is another potential first-round option depending on how his combine week goes. In the video I reviewed of Cooper (all after the trade to the Cowboys), he looked like a very good WR, just one step down from elite (not quite a Julio Jones or Antonio Brown). Jeffery rushes forward and head fakes inside, but the CB doesnt bite and stays with him outside. [7:50] Cooper again lines up top of screen opposite Mike Hughes. Overall, I think Reagor is a skilled, explosive playmaker who can stretch the field vertically while also taking short passes or handoffs for big gains, using his sudden cuts and quick acceleration to juke defenders and get yards after the catch. Jhabvala didn't specify when the interview was taking place, but the team was expected to . Despite no separation in the endzone, JJ uses smart body-positioning and use of hands to maintain inside leverage and box out the CB in the endzone. New York Giants tight end Evan Engram is a more talented overall player than both but the 3rd year TE is struggling with his catch percentage(it is sub 60%) as an offense safety blanket Engram has been a disappointment this year. Still, he forces teams to respect the deep game, and I often saw him get an easy completion on a crossing or out route because the DB gave him a lot of cushion in order to defend the deep routes. He is not just the first read on this play, hes the only read. So far we have looked at: 1. He lines up on the boundary at the top of the screen opposite Vikings CB Mike Hughes. Dez Bryant, Pierre Garcon, Odell Beckham Jr., and Victor Cruz all added luster to the divisions marketability. Just a few years ago, the NFC East was chock-full of high profile wide receivers. Cooper is one of the best in the NFL at building up speed on the route stem as if hes going to go deep, then stopping on a dime and cutting in a different direction so suddenly that the DB is backing up several feet away before he realizes hes out of position. * 21+ (19+ CA-ONT) (18+ NH/WY). Panthers saddled with another odd pick in latest NFL.com mock draft. Although hes a big, physical WR who is good at contested catches, he is also fast enough to blow past some DBs when going vertical. Slayton still just runs past them and gets several yards of separation, doing a great job looking back and tracking the ball in the air to get a long reception for a TD. Brown, Philadelphia Eagles. Our daily series examining the NFC East from a positional perspective with the help of league personnel sources moves on to the position in which the Eagles spent the most time on in the offseason . Hes still only an average run blocker, but thats a step up from what he was and traditionally means a lot to the Cowboys offense. Commanders; Cowboys; Eagles; Giants; . The 6-foot-3, 229-pound Ole Miss product was one of the best wide receivers in the league against man coverage. McLaurin is an extremely willing and tough blocker, even if his technique could use some work, and is generally willing to do the dirty work necessary to help his team succeed.

He got off to a strong start to the season thanks to his dominance in the short game, as his 457 receiving yards on passes of fewer than 10 air yards from Weeks 1 to 9 were 68 more than any other player recorded in that span. Odds & lines subject to change. He recognizes the Cover 2 Zone defense and runs his route perfectly along the soft spots between zones the whole way. Cooper can play every WR position: X, Z, and slot, and the Cowboys use him all over the field to exploit matchups and get him paired with slower DBs. His most impressive area of improvement was in his catching ability. I suspect the best-known group of receivers in the division is the Cowboys receiving corps, headlined by Amari Cooper and featuring the just-drafted CeeDee Lamb. [7:59] McLaurin lines up opposite Jalen Mills at the top of the screen. But the NFC North has four of the very best wideouts in football, including possibly the best wideout in the league in Adams. Playing on a loaded Ohio State offense, McLaurin only caught 35 passes in 2018, but did a lot with his opportunities (20.0 YPR average). Terry McLaurin flashes elite traits, but has enough problems in his tape that I can see why he fell to the 3rd round. [3:34] Reagor again goes deep, this time going inside (maintaining early inside leverage against the boundary CB), then outside a little later (maintaining outside leverage against the deep safety). Dorrell was most recently the head coach at the University of Colorado. Such questionable play at the QB spot led me to wonder how the dependent receivers are fairing under such unsteady conditions. 10 pick in Smith, who will become their No. He has surprising physicality for his size, often fighting through contact on a contested catch to get extra yards. In fact, with four games remaining on the schedule, Brown already has set the Next Gen Stats era (since 2016) single-season record with four touchdowns on deep, tight-window passes. On the short end of the NFC East receivers, the Giants and Eagles have an average height of 72.2 inches, or 6 feet. And Lamb came out of the gate with a 74-catch rookie season. He has enough deep speed that opposing DBs have to respect the deep pass and will often sell out to defend it, giving Cooper a good amount of cushion. But the problem is when the book is written that a wideout cant get off the jam, the opponent knows this as well. Sometimes we look around the NFL and see how a quarterback is only as good as his wideouts. The more I learn about certain recent Eagles draft picks, the more it seems like they are perfect long-term replacements for some of the star players on the Eagles roster.

Last month, the former LSU star surpassed another legendary Vikings receiver -- none other than Hall of Famer Randy Moss -- for the most receiving yards in a player's first three seasons, and he has only added to that total over the last couple weeks. One major reason for that success has been Lambs consistency, as the third-year wideout has posted 70-plus receiving yards in five of those seven games. His basketball roots are also evident on plays like this. Cooper again lines up opposite Hughes, this time at the bottom of the screen.

However, I think Slayton has a very high ceiling and could be really good if he continues to develop. Right now Slayton is relying almost entirely on his athletic traits to find success, which is enough to get him pretty far against some teams, but limits his versatility and allows him to be shut down by the more athletic CBs in the NFL. Of course, no position group consists of just one or two players. Richardson is a very smart WR, aware of the field and good at improvising to keep himself open as a viable option when the play breaks down (he made a similar TD off of improvisation against the Panthers last year). It also helped the other players on offense by giving them easier matchups and complicating the Lions defense (if Slay had to travel, then other DBs had to travel or adjust their responsibility accordingly).

Reagor is a bit more physical than you might expect from a playing weight under 200 pounds, though he still struggles a bit with press coverage. This is almost a right of passage and wide receivers must show the ability to win at the line of scrimmage and make defensive coordinators pay for playing them in this manner. You won't want to miss a moment of the 2022 season! Up next in the divisional depth chart review is the NFC East wide receivers.

This shows how much the Cowboys trust Cooper to be a red zone weapon. Here, the CB decides to take the flag on pass interference rather than risk Jeffery getting loose behind the secondary.
