There aren't many questions about New Orleans Saints wide receiver Jordyn Tyson, outside of the simple fact that he's dealt with some injuries throughout his college career.
Injuries are definitely a red flag at times, and there have been moments when Tyson has been a bit more injured than anybody would want, but he's still an elite, elite player, and should be in a very good position to be one of the top young wide receivers in the NFL as early as his rookie season.
Ultimately, the Saints decided to make this pick to give Tyler Shough and Chris Olave another weapon in this offense, and as a result, were given a decent grade by CBS.
â8. Saints: Jordyn Tyson, WR, Arizona State Grade: B+
âTyson got the best tape grade from me of all the receivers. His size, movement skills, and body control are that of a No. 1 receiver. And he's the one receiver in the draft class that was truly treated as such by his offense as Arizona State went his way in every big situation. I can't give it an A, though, because of his injury history as he missed time in all four of his collegiate seasons,â Mike Renner of CBS wrote.
If everything goes as planned for Tyson and the Saints, there won't be too much to worry about here. It's also fair to mention that at times, when guys get to the NFL and get on better strength and conditioning regimens, they can get healthier and prevent injuries.
That will hopefully be the case for Tyson and the Saints, as they need him to be the guy that they are looking for.
