From the episode

I would take ahead of Justin Jefferson. And it's because two things. He's amazing, but Kyler isn't. ... He's probably not going to throw 30 touchdowns. So that to me makes Justin Jefferson a guy that we're expecting big things from and he's going to bounce back, but he's not going to be the Justin Jefferson that we knew and loved.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jefferson will bounce back but won't reach his previous elite ceiling.

Dave Richard ranks 11 running backs ahead of Justin Jefferson, citing concerns about Kyler Murray's consistency and passing volume. While Jefferson will bounce back, he is not expected to reach his previous elite production levels, as Murray is unlikely to throw for 30+ touchdowns.
