3. Jaxson Smith-Njigba

If the Atlanta Falcons head into next off-season fully believing in Desmond Ridder and unwilling to draft a quarterback two clear avenues open for the team. Either getting the elite pass rusher the team lacks or going after a playmaker to pair with Drake London. Giving Ridder an offense featuring Kyle Pitts, Drake London, and Jaxson Smith-Njigba would certainly set up the quarterback for an explosive first season as the starter.

While it wouldn’t necessarily be Jaxson, he currently appears to be the top receiver in the draft and would perfectly fit within Atlanta’s offense. Giving Ridder an explosive compliment of weapons setting the Falcons up to rival the offense that led the team to the Super Bowl five years ago.

Jaxson still holds the Ohio State single-game receiving record and has proven himself as a big-game receiver his quarterback can lean on.
