From the article

Jefferson barely cracked 1,000 yards last season, and the outlook for this season isn't much better. Jefferson caught a career-low two touchdowns last season. While that number has to increase somewhat, we don't see it being enough to draft Jefferson in the first round.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jefferson's 90+ point projection increase unlikely given QB situation and low TD floor.

Steve Krebs projects Justin Jefferson to fall short of his 1,376-yard and 293.71 fantasy-point projection. Jefferson faces a problematic QB situation: Kyler Murray hasn't played since Week 5 last season due to a foot injury, while J.J. McCarthy is a young signal-caller struggling to keep his job. Jefferson caught a career-low two touchdowns last season and is projected to produce 90+ fantasy points above his 201.5 from last year—a mark Krebs deems unrealistic. Krebs advises letting someone else draft the young superstar rather than targeting him in the first round.
