Ja’Marr Chase — Wide Receiver

I don’t envy Myles Brennan, simply because he has the unenviable task of replacing Joe Burrow.

But at least Brennan gets to throw passes to the best wide receiver in the nation next season.

Ja’Marr Chase would’ve been the top wide receiver selected in this year’s draft. He’s already that good.

But fortunately for LSU, Chase has to play one more season at LSU.

Being able to throw to a player like Chase is going to make Brennan’s job as the Tigers’ starting quarterback a lot easier.

Championships are won with elite players. LSU lost numerous elite players from their 2019 squad, but with Chase still in Baton Rouge, the Tigers’ offense has a chance to be dynamic once again in 2020.
