Draft Note by John Paulsen
Brian Thomas Jr. joins Christian Kirk, Evan Engram, and Gabe Davis to provide a potent receiving corps for Trevor Lawrence. Talent-wise, Thomas could be a top-two option for Jacksonville, but it will be a challenge to unseat Engram (8.4 targets per game) or Kirk (7.1) in terms of targets. However, Calvin Ridley vacated 8.0 targets per game, and Zay Jones (7.1) was also cut, so there are snaps and targets available for both Thomas and Davis. Matt Harmon of Reception Perception said that Thomas has "earned his standing as the first name mentioned" after the top-three receivers in the 2024 draft class, so he’s a breakout candidate in his first season.
