I've been following Shenault since his years at colorado. The guy when used correctly can be as elite as Deebo. The post above has an awesome video of what he brings to the position you rarely see in a single WR.

He is seriously a really talented young player.  Didn’t get enough targets down in Jax and can legit play RB…like full time.  This guy is a physical player

That would be spectacular if we got a Deebo Samuel tier weapon from the Jaguars for peanuts but the odds with these kinds of trades say it will be somewhere in between if that. The familiarity he has with McAdoo and working with Baker is enough to feel pretty good about it but it all depends on how he puts it together after his last team gave up on him.

His best year as a rookie he was basically only used in Deebo style routes and lining up out of the backfield. This past year, Urban tried to covert him to a possession receiver. If you watch footage from 2021 and compared to 2020 you will see a heavy difference in his route assignments. My only assumption to why the current coaching staff gave up on him would be no ties to him and they spent a ton of capital this offseason bringing receivers in. This would include the ludicrous contract they gave Christian Kirk

If you read up on Twitter the takes from Jags fans who know all about him it's a mixed bag and this is just part of that full picture he hasn't missed many games because he's only 23 but he's been banged up. This is a boom or bust trade and for a late rounder I'm obviously fine with it but I'm not going to put blinders on and assume every Jags fan is being a hater ya know.

You're right, the Jags fans don't think much of him.   From what I read it's because of his drops last year, many on 3rd down.

You are spot on and any team that has Urban Meyer mentioned is suspect.  LS is a dynamic player and 23.  It’s all up to him but this trade is a steal.  I still love the CJ trade as well.  Great work by Fitty

in 2020 Diontae Johnson led the league in dropped balls and now he makes 18mil per year

Well lets hope Shenault, Robby, Thomas and Chuba shake off whatever yips they have, like Johnson did.  I think there's hope for the first 3.  I'm not so sure with Chuba.

just thought some of ya'll would like to hear about some of his flaws. I think used right it could be a great pickup. Interesting he doesn't play ST's at all tho.

EDIT: Despite the thumbnail the guy isn't a lunatic and is pretty informative

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
