Uncovering Shocking First-Round Receiver Flops and Why the Rams’ Future Just Got Brighter
2023
Jaxon Smith-Njigba (Seahawks); 20th
Quentin Johnston (Chargers); 21st
Zay Flowers (Ravens); 22nd
Jordan Addison (Vikings); 23rd
The early returns on Johnston would indicate that he was a miss for the other LA team. Year three showed signs of a turnaround and the jury should still be out for now.
2024
Marvin Harrison, Jr. (Cardinals); 4th
Malik Nabers (Giants); 6th
Rome Odunze (Bears); 9th
Brian Thomas (Jaguars); 23rd
Xavier Worthy (Chiefs); 28th
Ricky Pearsall (49ers); 31st
Xavier Legette (Panthers); 32nd
The last two to three receivers in this group are still out to prove themselves at the professional level. Worthy is useful but he was taken in the late first because he fills a niche role. There is a lot riding on Pearsall to lead a lackluster 49ers receiving corps this season.
