From the article

Jefferson was the WR31 last year. It will be nowhere near that bad with Kyler Murray, but the fact that this just happened makes him a no brainer for this exercise.

Jefferson's WR31 finish last year makes him a Round 1 fade despite Murray upgrade.

Jefferson was WR31 last year, a historically poor finish that makes him a fade candidate despite the upgrade to Kyler Murray. Winks has him 16th overall in half-PPR, well behind the clear-cut fantasy RB1s and elite WRs, and only a late Round 1 option in full-PPR. The recency of his poor 2025 finish is the primary concern driving the fade.
