Jefferson ranked 9th; elite upside if Kyler Murray executes in pass-heavy offense.
Justin Jefferson is ranked 9th overall and positioned to return to elite production with Kyler Murray at quarterback. From 2022 to 2024, Jefferson averaged the most PPR points per game in the NFL at over 20 points per game; removing Josh Dobbs and Jalen Hall games (poor quarterback performances), his baseline is extremely high. If Kyler Murray performs closer to Kurt Cousins or Sam Darnold tier (which he was a year ago), Jefferson could return to his peak where he once had the most receiving yards per game in NFL history around 100 yards per game. The Vikings are a very pass-heavy offense that will not change with Kyler Murray. Murray previously had DeAndre Hopkins at 88 yards per game in 2020 and 80 yards per game in another season, plus Trey McBride at 72 yards per game as a tight end, demonstrating his ability to elevate top receiving options. Despite poor QB play in 2024, Jefferson still led the team in targets (WR4), air yards (WR5), and endzone targets (16), with only 2 TDs on those opportunities—indicating the system design favors him and upside remains if Murray executes.
