It sure didn't take them long to make the pick! This was cool, that whole 18+ minute video was pretty well done. The Gladney pick was just as good! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda thought it was funny/neat that they said "Let's go get Gladney" right after they picked Jefferson. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitehops Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Jordan Reid is one of the most respected scouts/talent evaluators on the internet and he had high praise for Jefferson: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illadelegend215 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 More and more practices I like this kids ability. Of course we gotta see him in game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 If he stays healthy, can we get him to 1000 yards this season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would hope so; he only has to average a little over 58 yards/game to reach 1000 for the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Cousins now realizes that Thielen isn't his only WR and he can trust JJ to catch the ball. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 This is cool, however we had almost no passing success after Jefferson's long touchdown. That came with 8 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. I realize Rudolph caught a wildly inaccurate pass for a TD but we almost completely stopped looking for Jefferson when it was clear that Tennessee had no answer for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too was puzzled by where Jefferson went after the touchdown. Whole offense seemed mediocre thereafter so there could be something else at play 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that what they did on our last drive? I wondered why it sputtered out so badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitehops Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 not sure what his PFF grade will be from today's game but it was 85.3 heading into today which is top 10 in the league. so yeah, he's off to a great start and already looks super impressive all around. route running, adjusting to the ball, contested catches, after the catch, etc. it's obviously only four games but he's already put up 16/348/1 so he's on pace for 64/1,536/4. there'll be regression as his efficiency numbers are off the charts but he should get more targets and is almost a lock to crack 1,000 yards barring injury. i don't expect him to get more than 5 touchdowns regardless, as the vikings have shown they love handing it off to cook in the red zone and if they're throwing it's likely thielen or rudolph on the receiving end. i honestly don't think it's crazy to think he'll end up with something like 75/1,200/5. while production would be comparable to any of diggs' seasons here it doesn't mean jefferson is better, but it definitely is close enough to say that the trade was worthwhile. a list of 21 year old rookies that cracked 1,000 yards: mike evans, keenan allen, amari cooper. sammy watkins (982). pretty good company for jefferson's career trajectory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also got other picks and he costs a lot less than Diggs. Damn good trade so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
