Jerrel Jernigan ~ Boomer!!
When I evaluate any prospect, 1% of it derives from my own analysis of The Tape, and 99% of it is my evaluation of the evaluators: Those guys, quoted and linked, above, whose expertise DWARFS mine.

I have to agree with Wes Bunting: Jerrel Jernigan strikes me as an exceptional Slot Receiver Prospect.
His height makes him a long shot as either a Spit End or Flanker ~ though there are of course noteworthy exceptions ~ and his Navigational skills are very raw, as well.
But this guy is highly Explosive, commands tremendous Fluidity and Lateral Agility, and ~ the best minds all agree ~ is absolutely outstanding in Working the Field and picking up huge chunks of Yards After the Catch.
Full Disclosure: I have a particular affinity for Slot Receivers, as I believe they do the dirty work that is absolutely essential to Moving The Chains and taking command of the pace of the Game. Big Plays are all well and fine, and I would certainly agree that one needs to have the capability to make a Defense pay, if it keys too heavily on what we call The Short Game, in order to keep them honest...But I believe that History tells us that, when it comes to the pursuit of Championships and Super Bowl Glory, the odds invariably favor the teams that are dominant at the Line of Scrimmage and the 10 Yards beyond it, not the teams who's best work is done Down Field.
Boomer!!
