Tyson's college production over his final two seasons ranked top 15 nationally in yards per route run and receiving grade in one of those years, and top 60 and top 11 respectively across the two-year sample. The volume case is what stands out most. When the Saints offense was clicking late last season, coinciding with the rookie quarterback's own breakout stretch, the passing attack ranked fifth in the league in neutral passing rate and 11th in pass rate over expectation. If that identity carries over this year with more weapons in place, this offense could rank inside the top 10 in overall passing volume, putting Tyson in position for a real shot at 120 or more targets as a rookie.

The source ranks Jordan Tyson at WR31 personally, above his consensus WR38 (overall 87th) ADP, and views him as a strong WR3 with upside. The source acknowledges Tyson has holes in his game but compares him to Stevie Johnson and Brandon Iyuk pre-breakout, noting they weren't polished route runners but hit the ground running. The source's bull case hinges on Kellen Moore's play-calling and Tyler Shuck's second-year development. Over his final two college seasons, Tyson was 60th and 11th in yards per route run, and 12th and 15th in receiving grade. The source projects Tyson could see 120+ targets as the Saints' number two option if the offense maintains its late-season 2025 form (weeks 12-18 when the Saints were 5th in neutral passing rate and 11th in pass rate over expectation). The source believes the Saints offense could rank top 10-15 in scoring this season with more weapons for Shuck, creating volume opportunity for Tyson.

The source ranks Jordan Tyson at WR31 (consensus WR38, overall 87th) and believes he should be viewed as a strong WR3 with upside. Tyson is ranked above consensus and the source plans to keep drafting him. While not the most emphatic pre-draft advocate, the source sees parallels to Stevie Johnson and Brandon Iyuk—unpolished route runners who hit the ground running. Tyson's college production over final two seasons: 60th and 11th in yards per route run, 12th and 15th in receiving grade. The source emphasizes the volume upside as the number two option in the Saints passing attack. In weeks 12-18 last season, when Tyler Shuck broke out, the Saints offense ranked 5th in neutral passing rate and 11th in pass rate over expectation. If the Saints run that back with more weapons, the source projects the offense could be top-10 in passing volume, making Tyson a candidate for 120+ targets in his rookie season. Tyson is practicing in full at camp. The source expects Tyler Shuck to take a step in year two, which should benefit Tyson.
