A week before the 2023 NFL Draft, Jayden Reed is earning some rave reviews and is being tabbed as a second or third-rounder.

Jayden Reed is one of the most talented wide receivers to ever put on the green and white. While injuries and inconsistent quarterback play prevented his production from reaching its potential, Reed had his fair share of electrifying plays in East Lansing.

With his college career completed, Reed is looking to start his professional career. Earlier this year, he showed off at the Reese’s Senior Bowl and at the practices leading up to the event in front of numerous NFL scouts.

Reed also had an impressive combine performance showing off his speed and athleticism. MSU fans didn’t need to see his 4.45 40-yard dash time to tell you he was fast, they could just point you to his pair of punt return touchdowns for the Spartans.

NFL.com has Reed graded as an “average backup or special-teamer” but he seems to be rising up on scout’s lists. That label almost seems disrespectful, and one former scout agrees.

Jim Nagy is the executive director of the Reese’s Senior Bowl and also has 18 years of experience as an NFL scout. Earlier on Thursday he was raving about Reed on Twitter.

“Jayden Reed will outperform many WRs projected to go earlier as a pro,” Nagy predicted.

According to The Athletic, the NFL teams most in need of upgrading their receiving core are the Steelers, Ravens, Cardinals, Titans, Browns, and Panthers. Could Reed end up hearing his name earlier than expected?

Reed’s best season as a Spartan was in 2021 when he racked up over 1,000 receiving yards and 13 total touchdowns. He also was tied for first in the NCAA with two punt return touchdowns in 2021.

Whoever ends up with Jayden Reed will be getting a gem.
