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. 

It's 90.6 now
