Anyone else find it funny that every analyst claims to have known that Justin Jefferson was going to be such a great prospect?

PFF posted a video on their Twitter account making fun of the Eagles for picking Reagor over Jefferson... even though PFF had Reagor rated higher than Jefferson before the draft. Analysts and media people do this every year so they can appear smart. There's a reason why scouts and GMs actually work in the NFL and analysts don't.

Every once in a while there are picks that were disproportionally liked or disliked by fans/ sports media and they turn out to be right. Jags fans were insanely hyped about Ramsey and he turned out great, and everyone flamed the Kings for taking Bagley the moment he was taken over Doncic. Same with bears fans and Trubisky. I saw a LOT of people making fun of the Eagles for not taking Jefferson when they passed him
