Bateman has been a favorite of many for a while now. The biggest concern with him is his slight build but he has the chance to be the target leader in Philadelphia from the start. The 2020 Heisman winner turned in a truly remarkable season last year when he had 117 receptions, 1,856 yards, and 23 touchdowns in only 13 games. Looking at the wide receivers in this group it starts with DeVonta Smith. Like Etienne, it’s likely he sees significant touches early and often.

He’s a tremendous talent but landing in Denver brings the same workload concerns as Etienne. Javonte Williams was plenty of analysts’ top running back in this class and for good reason. It will be interesting to see the workload split, but it’s likely Etienne sees a significant share sooner than later. The issue for Etienne is that 2020 undrafted rookie sensation, James Robinson, is still there. Travis Etienne was the very next pick in the draft and gets to continue playing with college teammate Trevor Lawrence in Jacksonville. Landing spot is huge when it comes to running backs and it’s the main reason these two guys come in a bit lower than Najee Harris. That’s exactly what happened and Harris is now likely to see every-down work and 300+ touches as a rookie. The Pittsburgh Steelers vacancy at running back was one of the most obvious and whoever takes that spot is likely to see a heavy workload from day one, especially if drafted in the first or second round. RUN IT BACK 🗣🗣🗣 (via Overtime April 30, 2021 Chase is one of the highest-rated wide receiver prospects in a while and is going to be a superstar. In that season he recorded 84 receptions for 1,780 yards and 20 touchdowns! He did so while out producing former teammate Justin Jefferson, who just turned in one of the best rookie seasons in NFL history. While he opted out of the 2020 season, the last time we saw him was in 2019 when was dominating college football.

Ja’Marr Chase looks as if he has the best combination of an extremely high floor and a sky-high ceiling.
