Yahoo Sports NFL on Brian Thomas Jr.
From the article
The primary catalyst keeping this hypothetical alive is Thomas' college chemistry with Jayden Daniels at LSU. While navigating the front-office demands will be difficult, if a Day 3 pick is somehow all it takes to reunite the two, Washington should make that call without a second thought.
STACKED’s take
Thomas unlikely to move but LSU chemistry with Daniels makes Day 3 deal tempting.
A Brian Thomas Jr. departure from Jacksonville still feels highly improbable, though a strong argument can be made that the Jaguars should trade him given that their current wide receiver depth has made him look like the odd man out in Liam Coen's scheme. Jacksonville remains just one injury away from needing his vertical prowess back on the field and views themselves as legitimate postseason contenders, so retaining premium depth is essential. The primary catalyst keeping this hypothetical alive is Thomas' college chemistry with Jayden Daniels at LSU; if a Day 3 pick is somehow all it takes to reunite the two, Washington should make that call without a second thought. The logistical hurdle lies in bridging the value gap: Jacksonville will rightfully demand a premium based on his status as a former first-round pick who put up 1,282 yards as a rookie, while rival teams will try to exploit his low 2026 production to buy low. Projected value: Day 3 pick.
