Nate Christian (@NateNFL) gives you the rundown on one of the top receivers in the 2021 NFL Draft Class. Ja'Marr Chase takes front and center in this preview for prospects in the NFL.
After a record season as Joe Burrow’s ($9,047,534) favorite target in 2019, Ja’Marr Chase decided to opt-out of the 2020 college football season to start his preparation for the NFL Draft. Some mysteries linger about his game after only a single breakout year, but the tape doesn’t lie, and Chase is arguably the best receiver in a talented and deep draft class.
2019 was an incredible one year showing for Chase as a true sophomore. Next to future-first rounder Justin Jefferson and another intriguing 2021 receiving prospect, Terrence Marshall Jr, Chase put up some absurd numbers. He caught 84 passes for 1780 yards, an impressive 21.2 yards per reception, and found the endzone 20 times! His statistics and impact for the LSU offense earned him the 2019 Fred Biletnikoff Award (awarded to the best receiver in the nation) as well as a consensus spot on the All-American team.
Strengths that come to mind for Chase are strong hands, consistently wins 50/50 balls and he's physical at the point of attack. There are some downsides to him as well as a player.
