@scoutdnfl
Iowa State WR Jayden Higgins has a lot of likeable traits.

Not every 6’4/215lbs WR is moving with this type of snappiness/acceleration. Great hands too.

Jayden Higgins is an incredibly smooth route runner at 6’4 215lbs with excellent hands, physicality, and contested catch ability.

Has a little Nico Collins to his game

Jayden Higgins - Iowa State - 6040-215e #SeniorBowl

Elite frame, length & catch radius. Not a burner or massive athlete but extremely effective at route breaks, creates separation with route running detail & stem manipulation. Great at the catch point, +ball tracking, +strength.

Jaden/Jayden sure was a popular name circa 2000. I blame Will and Jada.

It's not hard to see Sean Payton watching Jayden Higgins and seeing Michael Thomas part deux

I won't be shocked if Higgins were to transition to big slot in the NFL. Dude has nice footwork for his size and consistently gets open in the short/intermediate on slants and outs

I don't normally like posting reps where the WR blows past a defender this easily, but Jayden Higgins isn't supposed to be able to move like this at this size

No help is always tough for a DB in 1-on-1s, but Iowa State WR Jayden Higgins showing off some vertical separation is good to see

Big part of what would make a successful Senior Bowl for him

NFL Draft Files
Jayden Higgins is THE GUY I’ve planted my flag on at WR for the 2025 NFL Draft.

An awesome combo of size, agility, hands, nuance, and contested catch ability.

He should be a 1st round pick.

I can already make it official - this fella is my fave WR of the class.

 

[King of the Jungle]

Are we excited about this guy because the class is so poor compared to last year, or does he have the goods to be a WR1 for a team?

Are we excited about this guy because the class is so poor compared to last year, or does he have the goods to be a WR1 for a team?

the class overall is poor, but he's a pretty strong talent. in last year's draft I'd probably have him ranked as #4 wr, and in this class, I'd have no issue with him being 1, 2 or 3.
the team he goes to will matter a lot, but he's got this Mike Evans to him that I can't shake. and i LOVED me some mike evans.
