He'll break 1000 yards tomorrow with 41 receiving yards and I like his chances. It isn't like he had a bad year. He's just had more receptions in less games but with a much lower YPC and TDs. He became a bit of a possession receiver in the Sark offense.
Heck, if he catches a TD in the bowl then he'll have back-to-back double digit TD seasons.
Well, folks, he took care of all that on the first offensive snap of the game.

Phins CEO (owner?) was at the game. I think Juedy has been a desirable target for their fans all year...gotta think he’s in agreement after that show.

l wouldn't be surprised if Jeudy is more of a mid first rounder, no knock on him really, but just how the draft goes.
The last 2 drafts have had no top 15 receivers, in 2017, three went top 10, but 2 of those have been bust players, Cory Davis and Jon Ross and the other one has just been OK, Mike Williams, not worth the spot he was drafted at, but is a pretty good player.
You'd have to go back to 2015 and Amari Cooper, to find a highly drafted receiver that was worth his pick, 5th overall.
I think Jeudy would have to have a strong combine showing to be top 10, even harder to get in the top 5.
And he's no physical freak like Julio Jones.....Jeudy is kind of skinny and may not run an eye popping 40 yard dash.
NFL GMs over analyze and out think themselves sometimes...... i think Jeudy will be special, but may not be drafted top 10.
The difference between those guy Davis and Ross and Jeudy is the route running ability. Ross especially was just a speed guy. Jeudy is more like Antonio Brown with out the Diva. Jeudy will get what all QB's love separation. He is going to make some DB's look bad next year.

One indication Ross was going to bust was when our 2016 defense just absolutely bullied him in the Peach Bowl. I just don’t think Juedy fits the archetype of a top 10 WR. Coop has a little bit more size on him but that is a top 10 comp as a prospect.

One of my friend's daughter is married to one of the trainers but out of respect I will let Tua tell you in a few days what he intends to do.
I hate post like this, just showing off because you have a connection. If you don't want to say anything, then don't say anything at all.

I'm to believe that a trainer knows before Saban or, Saban lied when he said he didn't know. I don't buy it. Plus, if Tua's already made a decision then why wait until Monday? I figured he was taking the weekend to make his decision and announce on Monday.

Serious question because I just don't remember. Do players typically hold press conferences to announce they are staying? Moses just tweeted it out but I don't remember what others have done in the past.

Not typically, but there is nothing typical about the Tua decision.

Seems like when Allen and Anderson stayed they were there with the declaring Juniors. Said they had unfinished business. And they finished!!

I missed that....did he say he would let the world know? But did he say he's having a press conference?

Perhaps he's just going to tweet it out on 1.6

I also don't think the Alabama Football site puts up the Dominoes thing -- unless they know something good....

Yep, but sometimes NFL teams get all caught up in measurables and speed over a guy that just plays the position well.
Jeudy may test well or may not...but he is pretty special at playing WR

Jeudy needs an accurate QB.....because he's so precise in route running - and so elusive after the catch..... the ball just needs to be there, because Jerry will be there.
