Ricky Pearsall has the best route-plus-price case in this WR stash group, while Watson, Burden, Branch, and McConkey require different draft rules.

Aiyuk still carries a 49ers tag, but the Washington possibility changes how to draft Pearsall, McLaurin, Evans, and a late stash without pretending anything is final.

If the Vikings treat Jones as one piece of a three-back rotation instead of the trusted receiving back, the draft pick becomes touchdown-dependent fast.
Jordan Mason is a better immediate comparison point because Minnesota's backfield has a known veteran in Aaron Jones and a price gap the model can see.
If you opened with an early running back, the better use of Tampa's Round 1 choice is to understand Irving more clearly, not to jam him onto every roster.
Here's the sneaky play in this range: Jennings and Kittle project nearly identically, but the positional scarcity math is completely different.
Pick 15: This is where discipline beats excitement The second turn is usually Bucky Irving, Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, and Breece Hall.
