With three different (but extremely talented) starting QBs throughout his three seasons at Oklahoma, CeeDee Lamb’s production only increased with each new installment of Lincoln Riley’s offense. Finishing his career in Oklahoma’s all-time top-10 in all three main receiving stats (receptions, yards, TDs), Lamb has more than proven his superb ability week-in and week-out. An absolute beast after the catch, his physicality and ball skills will become an even greater strength if he keeps adding to his frame.
Quite frankly, deciding between Lamb and Jeudy comes down to splitting hairs. They’re both great athletes and should be able to produce immediately, it just depends on a given team’s preferred type of WR. Lamb is slightly bigger, more physical, and has much more experience and production out wide. Yet, he didn’t play the greatest defensive competition and is not the route technician that Jeudy is. Regardless, it’s impossible to go wrong either way — both would without a doubt be WR1 in almost any other draft class.
