He had the Saints taking him with their first in his mock, too. I'd hate to see him there, assuming Brees comes back.

Yeah DJ is pretty high on him. I think bucky isn't (from listening to their podcast).

YAC god.

Thinking this kid will be a target in a trade back, I think he'll be around still, say top 40..

Aiyuk goes #18 overall to the Eagles in a trade up in this updated mock from The Athletic.

Philadelphia Eagles (via MIA) – Brandon Aiyuk, WR, Arizona State
It is no secret that the Eagles will be looking to add speed on both sides of the ball this offseason. And in this scenario, they jump ahead of the Raiders and Jaguars to secure one of the most explosive pass-catchers in the draft. Aiyuk has speed, length and playmaking skills that would immediately pay dividends in Philadelphia. The structure of this trade would be very similar to last year's when the Eagles jumped up a few spots to nab Andre Dillard.

Aiyuk ranked as the #7 WR, ahead of Reagor and Hamler.

Pro Comp: Emmanuel Sanders

7. Brandon Aiyuk, Arizona State (6-0, 203, 4.45)Rocklin, Calif. (McQueen), senior. Age: 22.10

A one-year starter at Arizona State, Aiyuk was the "X" receiver in former offensive coordinator Rob Likens' scheme, lining up both inside and outside the formation. He spent most of the 2018 season learning the offense and benefiting from the tutelage of N'Keal Harry, taking over as the Sun Devils' top passing target and return man in 2019.

Aiyuk is a "runway" athlete – if given any type of runway, he has the explosive gears and top-end speed to be a big-play threat, stretching simple slants into impact plays (averaged 11.1 yards after the catch in 2019). His average play strength and continued maturation as a route-runner are two areas where he needs to improve. Overall, the definition of a playmaker is a player who turns small plays into big plays and that is exactly what Aiyuk can do with his dynamic athleticism, projecting similar to Emmanuel Sanders (his skill set, role and impact) at the NFL level.

listened to his mock today on stick to football...he had Shenault going to the Packers in the 1st rd. Aiyuk wasn't 1st rd pick.

He's someone to think about if they do trade down for sure.

Shanahan's dream.
