for him to crack the top 10, he needs to blow folks away on his combine and pro day performance.
If he gets drafted over Quentin Johnston or even Jordan Addison, I would love to know why. But hey, I wouldn't hate it. I just hope Schoen pounces on Johnston if given the opportunity.
RE: He's a shorter, slot-only WR with just okay speed and injury issues.
I realize he lined up in the slot a lot (it was the best way to get him on the field as a young WR on a team with Olave and Wilson). But he will be able to play as an outside option in the NFL. This isn’t a guy who has the size/catch radius/release limitations that traditionally silo guys to the ‘slot WR only’ role in the NFL.
I’m weary of a guy who missed an entire year with hammy issues. But this is a top 10 talent at a position of desperate need. If he’s there when the Giants pick, it would seem like a no-brainer. We’ll see as the draft process progresses..,,

He's listed at 6'1, but I think those numbers are skewed. He did not look that tall when he was on the field last year. I'm very curious to see where he'll measure because he does not look big at all. And AJ Brown is very thick. He's almost built like a RB - 6'1, 225 lbs. Smith-Njigba is about 25 pounds+ lighter.

The listed height/weight measurements in college are notoriously generous. Then we find out the truth at the combine.
But I don't think the difference will matter to his draft stock.

He is 6’1. Taller than AJ Brown…

Of course, everyone will worry about Toney 2.0 but he needs to be evaluated separately

JSN was outstanding in 2021.
That was a helluva trio for Ohio State in 2021: JSN, Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave.
