3rd in routes but 29th in targets; route volume justifies ADP

Jerry JeudyWRCLE

Jerry Jeudy was third in the NFL in total routes (highest volume) but 29th in targets last year, creating a significant volume-to-opportunity gap. Davis Mattek has 'drafted this dude so freaking much' and notes his 1,200-yard season two years ago, arguing the route volume alone justifies his ADP relative to comparable wide receivers like Malik Washington, Isaac Tesla, and Antonio Williams. Jameis Winston's arrival improves target opportunity. Mattek acknowledges downside risk (Browns could be 32nd in offense, Jeudy could underperform) but the route volume makes him preferable to alternatives like Jeremy Bernard. Additionally, Mattek notes that Jeudy's ADP has risen significantly year-over-year despite minimal situation change, suggesting potential overvaluation relative to actual role improvement.
