Jeudy projects to 51 rec, 700 yards, 3 TDs at draft price; value hinges on Watson improvement.
Jerry Jeudy was drafted by Davis Mattek as a wide receiver with a different bye week to enable late-round Cleveland Browns quarterback selection. Last year Jeudy posted 7.1 points per game on 34 routes per game with 6.2 targets per game but only 2.9 receptions per game, indicating a significant catch rate issue. Mattek frames Jeudy's value as dependent on whether Deshaun Watson can improve the Browns' quarterback situation, stating 'the whole thing comes down to can Deshaun Watson be better than the worst quarterback in the NFL? The answer is probably no.' However, Mattek's quant model projects 51 receptions, 700 yards, and three touchdowns at Jeudy's draft price, which Mattek deems 'perfectly fine.' Mattek respects Todd Monken's offensive play-calling history but acknowledges the fundamental quarterback limitation. If the Browns can find anything with Monken, Jeudy becomes 'absolutely massive value.'
