Los Angeles Rams WR Van Jefferson Is NFL's Biggest Under-the-Radar Impact Rookie

The Los Angeles Rams' Van Jefferson will be the top-producing prospect from a historic class with 37 wide receivers drafted four months ago.

Eleven wide receivers heard their names called before Jefferson in April's NFL draft, yet this year's No. 57 pick is primed to surpass all of them and make the biggest rookie impact.

A top target on the field doesn't have to be one during the entry process.

Five wide receivers were taken before the New Orleans Saints chose Michael Thomas with the 47th pick in 2016.
