There were a few guys out there. Steve Smith loved him right off the bat. He compared him to Brandon Aiyuk. I thought he compared more to DaVante Adams personally when I looked at his highlights.

I hope they add another WR in the draft to compliment him. It wouldn't hurt my feelings at all if Tetairoa McMillan tests off the charts at 6'5, 200+ and they decide to take him.

He reminds me a lot of A.J Green. Pairing him with Thomas Jr. would be insane in my opinion.

BTJ is way faster than Adams.  Adams has never really burned corners, he always got it done with his route running, size, and great hands.  BTJ reminds me of Randy Moss a bit the way he burns people and the good size.  The sky is the limit for BTJ.  Hopefully he makes another jump next year and is in the talks with Chase and JJ

Yeah, there were a few that were high on him, but there was one guy who posted his video review to X that I think someone here linked to it in a post here and the guy said in that video during the lead up to the draft that BTJ was the best of all the prospects and I hadn't heard anyone else proclaim that until recently.  It looks like that guy was correct, though I'm not writing Nabers or MHJ off as they could still potentially clear when these guys careers are all over with.  BTJ is off to a phenomenal start, though, and looks to be the best receiver this team has had since Jimmy Smith which was an awfully long time ago.

Chris Simms had him as his 2nd WR behind Nabers.
