Jaxon Smith-Njigba is a 2024 fantasy football draft sleeper at wide receiver and an ADP draft value. Target Jaxon Smith-Njigba as an undervalued WR in fantasy football drafts.
BALLER MOVE: Target Around 65-70 overall
CURRENT ADP: 72
ANALYSIS: Jaxon Smith-Njigba--better known as JSN--is due for his breakout season in 2024. After a tumultuous rookie year which began with a wrist fracture in August, JSN posted 628 yards on 93 targets, which is inefficient.
However, boosting his 5.9 aDOT is a potential quick fix for 2024 production as JSN is a talented route runner best utilized in the intermediate portion of the field rather than closer to the line of scrimmage. JSN is built to evade contact rather than through contact like Deebo Samuel.

JSN's sophomore breakout season in college with 95 catches, 1606 yards, and 9TD was one of the most productive years we have seen from a prospect in this millennium. In this sophomore season, JSN lapped Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson in production, both of who have posted 1000+ yards in the NFL.
With Tyler Lockett another year older (32 this month) and missing practice of late due to lower body issues, JSN has an extra out to success this season if he misses time and/or declines.
Nevertheless, JSN should be capable of producing in fantasy regardless of exterior factors like competition as he is entering this season at full strength with a new offensive coordinator in Ryan Grubb who displayed ways to optimize multiple WRs with the Washington Huskies.
