Andrew Erickson · Sep 19, 2025

Erickson gave his own Week 3 wide receiver ranks, notably putting Justin Jefferson sixth, AJ Brown ninth, Rome Odunze 17th, George Pickens 24th and Tee Higgins way down at 35th, while calling Odunze a full breakout.

So I think that we're starting to see a guy just go on a full fledged breakout and in this spot against Dallas, just terrible defense.
