Brian Thomas is a more actualized version of some of these volatile outside receiver types we've seen enter the draft the last couple of years

Dane Brugler says he has heard the Steelers love LSU’s WR Brian Thomas: “This might be his floor. If he doesn't go off the board before 20, I do think this might be the floor for him. I've heard they love Brian Thomas. Everyone wants them to take another character faller on Day 2. My impression of the Steelers is that they're... kind of sick of that. Understandably so based on the last few seasons. I think they'd love to just hit a homerun with a guy like Brian Thomas in the first round.” #Steelers #NFL
How many people have him a clear tier above WR5+ but still below MHJ, Nabers and Odunze?
Move up if you can. He's quite clearly a notable step down from what's above him at the same positionEvaluating what to do with the 11 pick in SF rookie draft, and whether I want to move up or down assuming the 8-9 players I expect to go above him to indeed go above him
He's been in a tier by himself for me as WR4 since January.How many people have him a clear tier above WR5+
This plus Harmon and I might be ok taking him at 1.2 in my devy league. Sorry for meing.@Steelersdepot

If the majority don't see him as a clear standout above that 5-whatever WR tier then it makes shuffling down a spot or two more favourable
I used to be one of those talent above all. Situation matters, how many have Olove ranked high and what really has he done? Two season of numbers that are easy to replace.How many people have him a clear tier above WR5+ but still below MHJ, Nabers and Odunze?

To me, landing spot is everything...I could see myself moving a player like Pearsall above Thomas if Pearsall were to land in a superior situation.
For example, Pearsall to KC and Thomas to Carolina...I'd likely have Pearsall higher.

We watched them both play. There is clearly a substantial difference right now.Listening to Brian Kelly talk like there isn't a big difference between he and Nabers was interesting.
I know I know college coaches gush but I still enjoyed it
He's proud. He's something like a dad gushing that his son caught the biggest fish ever but it was six inches long; and it's just as expected when the dad or coach talks.We watched them both play.

Maybe he meant developmentally they can get to the same level, but they are, to anyone who watched, obviously not at the same level right now.

Two risers for you: LSU WR Brian Thomas Jr. and Georgia OT Amarius Mims - they won’t be around very long come Thursday. Teams love these dudes.

Brugler confirmed “several teams” have flagged #LSU WR Brian Thomas for medical concerns.

@NFL
With the 23rd overall pick, the @jaguars select WR Brian Thomas Jr. from LSU

Other than that his QB isn’t very goodSeems like nearly ideal landing spot.

#23 Jaguars
My man Brian Thomas Jr!!! Reminds me of AJ Brown. Runs by people, makes plays after the catch. He’s more explosive than MHJ. No more excuses for this Jags offense.
AJ Brown, Davante Adams, DJ Moore, Justin Jefferson, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and Mike Evans would like a word.Other than that his QB isn’t very goodSeems like nearly ideal landing spot.
Jason Moore
Calvin Ridley and Zay Jones had 200 targets last year and the Jaguars replaced them with Brian Thomas Jr. and Gabe Davis. The opportunity is much nicer than I realized for Brian Thomas Jr.
