DRAFT RANK

PROJ PTS

ADP
119.7
Thomas’ college production made him draftable, but his potential made him a first-round pick. The 6-foot-3 speedster ran a 4.33-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine. Over the past decade, the only other 6-foot-3 receivers with comparable 40 times are Julio Jones, D.K. Metcalf, Chris Conley and Kevin White. Thomas is also only 21 years old, making him one of the youngest wide receivers in the NFL. This gives him a lot of long-term potential, but he also might take more time to develop.
Thomas took all nine snaps with the starters in their first preseason game. The Jaguars rested most starters in the second game but elected to give the rookie more experience. He played 22-of-29 snaps on the first two drives, which seems concerning, but it’s normal enough for wide receivers to take some plays off when drives drag on too long. Thomas played each of the first six plays on both drives regardless of personnel grouping.
Thomas should have a high floor, thanks to potentially running a high number of pass routes per game. The odds of him working out immediately might be a little lower than other wide receivers since he is more of a project, but his current ADP is WR49, making him well worth the risk.
