I'm being very realistic. Justin Jefferson is awesome but he gets thrown the ball thrown to him 15 times a game and he doesn't have to share with a ton of other people. What does Aiyuk get….5-8 targets per game??? Plus JJ has a better quarterback than we have had. Plus Minnesota is behind in a lot of games so they pass a lot more.

Brandon Aiyuk has more touchdowns per catch than Jefferson and he is better at running routes in my opinion. Jefferson uses his body and his height a lot more which is great but if you want to be realistic l BA is a touchdown machine waiting to happen. JJ is not and he has had every advantage to be. (Better qb, way more targets, almost always behind so they do throw a lot more)

The flip side of that coin is Aiyuk is the benefit of the defensive attention that guys like Kittle, CMC, and Deebo receive, not to mention the Shanahan run game.

Jefferson is going to be a primary focus of a defensive gameplan.

JJ is a better receiver. Let's not be those homers that get made fun of. BA is good, he can have a breakout year but JJ is one of the few elite guys in the league that you know can dominate him every game. And let's not now act like Cousins is some elite QB either. Love BA but he's not on JJs level.

Aiyuk has improved every season he has been in the league. I don't see that changing any time soon. Will Aiyuk ever get the targets that Jefferson gets? Not in this offense. But Aiyuk's efficiency was definitely top 10, even top 5 in some categories, last season. That should be all that matters since most offenses in the NFL are pass heavy and typically only have 1 or 2 main targets and Shanahan's is a lot more balanced with a lot more receiving options on every play.

Agreed. It's no slight towards Aiyuk either. Let's see if he can keep ascending.

Exactly. Let's not be blind to the facts and get made fun of for denying that targets are pretty much everything. Aiyuk can easily get 1400 yards with a few more targets per game. The fact that Aiyuk broke 1000 yards and got 8 TDs with such little targets and being a 4th option is amazing.
Nobody said JJ is not the better receiver so no homerism at all. Reading comprehension is a skill these days I guess.

However, Aiyuk's TDs on so few targets is so impressive. Even more so than JJ. (JJ only had 8 in 2022, 10 in 2021 and 7 in 2020) Not very good at all for an elite wr with so many targets. Also, it doesn't take an elite qb to throw 180 targets per year and the wr getting a ton of yards. There are many examples of wrs getting tremendous stats by getting a PLETHORA of targets.

Also, are people forgetting Aiyuk was averaging almost 100 yards per game and a td per game when he was targeted a lot I believe his rookie year with crap qb play but 8-10 targets per game? It's science

Shame on all of you for letting this thread regularly fall to the second page.

You have one of the five best WRs in all of football and you spent your time talking about dudes who will be out of the league in two years.

WR1. Always.
