Jerry Jeudy

25-Year-Old Wide ReceiverWR
Cleveland Browns
2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Browns seem confident Jeudy's best days are ahead, even after a major statistical dip during his fourth and final season in Denver. They only gave up a pair of Day 3 picks to acquire the 25-year-old wideout but then signed him to a three-year, $52.5 million extension (including $28 million guaranteed) on top of his $13 million fifth-year option for 2024. It's high-end No. 2 receiver money, not far from what Jacksonville gave Christian Kirk a couple offseasons prior. Jeudy hasn't lived up to his billing as a 15th overall pick, though he seemed like a safe prospect coming out of Alabama in 2020 with 2,488 receiving yards and 24 TDs over his final two seasons and a 4.45 time. He had 856 yards as a 21-year-old rookie in a bad offense with Drew Lock at quarterback, before dropping to 467 yards in 10 games in 2021. Jeudy rebounded in 2022 with a 67-972-5 receiving line on 100 targets in 15 games, but he then seemed to fall out of favor with Sean Payton last year and dropped to 758 yards and 83 targets while playing 41.4 snaps per game. Jeudy split his time between the slot and perimeter under Payton, after taking about 70 percent of his snaps outside as a rookie and 75 percent inside as a sophomore. He's on the thin side at 6-1, 193, and his game is far more finesse than physical. That shouldn't be a huge problem in Cleveland, where QB Deshaun Watson has WRs Amari Cooper and Elijah Moore and TE David Njoku as returning targets. Read Past Outlooks

Jeudy secured seven of 11 targets for 73 yards in the Browns' 27-10 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Jeudy set the pace in receptions while sharing the lead in targets with Cedric Tillman on a difficult afternoon overall for Jameis Winston. Jeudy has now exceeded 70 receiving yards in back-to-back games for the first time as a member of the Browns and logged 25 targets over the last three contests, affording him a formidable fantasy floor heading into a Week 11 road matchup against the Saints following a Week 10 bye.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2021
2020
Not much went right in Denver last season, but Jeudy was among the few reasons for optimism as he bounced back from his ugly sophomore campaign and again looked the part of a first-round pick. He didn't quite get to 1,000 receiving yards, in part because he missed two games, ultimately finishing at 67-972-6 on the strength of a big finish to the year. His big finish -- 523 yards over the final six games -- has reignited hype around the 2020 first-rounder, while teammate Courtland Sutton has still failed to recapture his pre-ACL-tear form after suffering the injury Week 1 in 2020. The Broncos also have high hopes for Marvin Mims, a rookie second-round pick who could take on added importance early in the year now that Jeudy is nursing a hamstring injury and appears in danger of missing the first few games.
Jeudy fell flat instead of breaking out in Year 2, unable to build momentum after a promising finish to his 856-yard rookie campaign. He got off to a fast start in the season opener last year with five catches before halftime, only to suffer a high-ankle sprain in the third quarter. Jeudy returned to a sputtering offense at the end of October and didn't help much, averaging 3.6 catches for 43.9 yards on 5.3 targets in his final nine games (without a TD all year). The silver lining? He caught 68 percent of his targets, and 8.2 YPT was solid for a guy who dealt with bad QB play and took 68 percent of his snaps from the slot. Jeudy figures to spend a lot of time in the slot again this season, but it'll look different with Russell Wilson replacing Teddy Bridgewater and Drew Lock. The former Seahawk had a role in three consecutive 1,000-yard, eight-TD seasons from Tyler Lockett, another speedy receiver who often aligns in the slot but can also do damage outside. While Jeudy isn't physically dominant - 4.45 40, 193 pounds - he's fast enough to pull off some of the slickest route-running you'll see from a 23-year-old receiver. He also has the blue-chip pedigree, with two huge seasons at Alabama leading up to an early declare and first-round selection. Whether that translates to big-time volume remains to be seen, as the Broncos also have Courtland Sutton under contract long term and 2020 second-round pick KJ Hamler hoping to earn snaps, but Jeudy should be aided by the fact that Tim Patrick suffered a torn ACL during training camp.
After a 15-target Week 16 last year in which Jeudy had only six catches and several egregious drops, he exploded for 7-5-140-1 in Week 17, including a spectacular 92-yard catch-and-run TD, showing why he was the second wide receiver taken in the 2020 draft. All told, Jeudy had 13 drops, one of the highest totals in recent memory (though mercifully eclipsed by Diontae Johnson's 15) and pedestrian per-play output (7.6 YPC). On the bright side, he showed he could stretch the field with 16.5 YPC (2nd) and four catches for 40-plus yards on only 113 targets. At 6-1, 193, and running a 4.45 40, Jeudy is a smooth route runner, unusually polished for his age. And he seems to play faster in pads. The problems for Jeudy, aside from the drops, are poor QB play and competition for targets. Teddy Bridgewater will be the Week 1 starter, with Drew Lock available in reserve. Courtland Sutton, a rising star in his own right, should be back from a torn ACL, while Tim Patrick, the biggest and most efficient Broncos receiver from a year ago, is still around after signing a second-round tender. KJ Hamler, a 2020 second-round pick, will also get a shot, and 2019 first-rounder Noah Fant is developing as one of the league's top pass-catching TEs. Jeudy has the talent and pedigree to emerge as the No. 1, but he's a long shot to be among the league leaders in targets.
In a rookie class loaded with talented receivers, Jeudy stands out as perhaps the best. He had 24 touchdown catches the last two seasons and averaged 12.6 and 10.6 YPT in 2018 and 2019, respectively, at Alabama. At 6-1, 193, he has only average size but good speed (4.45 40) and uncanny quickness and burst. He's a smooth route runner with a knack for getting open, good hands and excellent vision while running after the catch. He's a rare combo of raw athletic talent, football intelligence and polish. Landing in Denver with the 15th overall pick, Jeudy should start as the team's No. 2 receiver behind Courtland Sutton, with second-round selection KJ Hamler like serving as the No. 3. Second-year quarterback Drew Lock will have to improve, but if he does, there should be enough to go around for the team's top two targets and either Hamler or last year's first-rounder, tight end Noah Fant.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Potential upgrade at QB
WRCleveland Browns
October 23, 2024
Jeudy, who currently profiles as the Browns' No. 1 receiver, will work with Jameis Winston as his starting quarterback in Sunday's game against the Ravens, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com confirms.
ANALYSIS
Jeudy has fought through the Browns' quarterback issues to forge a 21-266-1 receiving line on 41 targets over his first seven games with the team. Up to this point, the speedy Jeudy has been forced to work primarily with Deshaun Watson, who appeared to have some limitations with his mechanics stemming from last season's shoulder injury before he suffered a season-ending Achilles tear Week 7. Rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson was then erratic in emergency duty before suffering his own finger injury, but in Winston, Jeudy will arguably have the best deep passer of the three and a quarterback that has shown a willingness to be aggressive downfield during his career.
