- Justin Jefferson, Minnesota Vikings. Justin Jefferson and his main competitor are different receivers, each presenting their unique challenges. Still, Jefferson is arguably the only receiver in the league without a glaring weakness.
- CeeDee Lamb, Dallas Cowboys. CeeDee Lamb’s fluidity gives him some of the most natural body control in the league. So far in 2023, he and QB Dak Prescott haven’t suffered from the miscommunication issues they so often had in 2022.
- A.J. Brown, Philadelphia Eagles. Brown is from another generation. He’s a big, physical bruiser who resembles a tall running back more than a receiver.
- Ja’Marr Chase, Cincinnati Bengals. Ja’Marr Chase can elevate over your dome, run by you down the sideline, or take a slant 80 yards. The only thing keeping him from being the most dominant WR in the NFL is that he doesn’t quite have the route-running chops of the top five.

- Quentin Johnston, TCU (Junior | 6-4, 215) 2022 Grade: 76.3. Play Style: True X. Initial Round Projection: Top 10. Physically, there’s nothing close to Johnston in the draft class.
- Zay Flowers, Boston College (Senior | 5-10, 172) 2022 Grade: 75.5. Play Style: Movable Weapon. Initial Round Projection: 1st. In a game played by some spectacular athletes, Flowers’ movement skills are on another level.
- Jordan Addison, USC (Junior | 6-0, 175) 2022 Grade: 81.5. Play Style: Separator. Initial Round Projection: 1st. Addison was the 2021 Biletnikoff Award winner as a true sophomore for Pittsburgh.
- Josh Downs, North Carolina (Junior | 5-10, 175) 2022 Grade: 82.8. Play Style: Underneath Route Runner. Initial Round Projection: 1-2. Downs personifies the term “shifty.”
Mar 6, 2024 · Ranking 2024 Wide Receiver Prospects. 20. Jamari Thrash, Louisville. Graded on 1-9 Scale. Big Board Rank: 145. Height: 6-foot. Weight: 188. Jamari Thrash projects as a No. 4 receiver who can line up outside as a Z or slide into the slot. He is quicker than fast, showing some ability to stretch the field, but is better in the short-to ...
- Steven Ruiz
- DeVonta Smith, Alabama (HT: 6-0, WT: 170, AGE: 22) Alabama put Smith on the line of scrimmage as a traditional X receiver and he dominated.
- Jaylen Waddle, Alabama (5-10, 185, 22) Waddle is, quite simply, the most explosive receiver in the draft. He may not have been WR1 in my rankings but that doesn’t mean he isn’t WR1 in my heart.
- Ja’Marr Chase, LSU (6-0, 201, 21) Chase is a bully. He doesn’t necessarily create a lot of separation but he didn’t need to because of his contested catch skills.
- Rashod Bateman, Minnesota (6-0, 190, 21) While the pro day circuit has been beneficial for most draft prospects, Bateman’s stock may have taken a hit after he measured in at 6-foot flat and weighed in at 190 pounds.
