1 |
Marvin Harrison |
With James gone, Manning will explore the field a little
more often. |
2 |
Steve Smith |
The addition of Keyshawn shouldn't decline Smith's stats
too much. |
3 |
Chad Johnson |
With or without Carson Palmer, he'd still be a top
receiver. |
4 |
Terrell Owens |
The Cowboys won't suspend him, giving him a full season of
production. |
5 |
Chris Chambers |
Chambers could have a career year with Culpepper under
center. |
6 |
Torry Holt |
With Bulger back, Holt returns to top-notch form. |
7 |
Anquan Boldin |
Missed two games last year and nearly led the league in
yards rec. |
8 |
Larry Fitzgerald |
Could easily be interchanged with Boldin. |
9 |
Santana Moss |
The Redskins have some new weapons, declining Moss' stats a
little. |
10 |
Darrell Jackson |
A healthy Jackson takes control of No. 1 receiving job. |
11 |
Donald Driver |
Driver may be the only guy Favre can rely on consistently. |
12 |
Randy Moss |
Aaron Brooks doesn't thrill us, but he's still Randy Moss. |
13 |
Javon Walker |
If healthy, Walker will thrive in Denver's system. |
14 |
Reggie Wayne |
He may lack the yards that Harrison will put up, but he'll
get the scores. |
15 |
Hines Ward |
Roethlisberger's primary go-to-receiver is always a safe
choice. |
16 |
Plaxico Burress |
Burress has revived his career away from the Steelers. |
17 |
Deion Branch |
The Patriots used to pass it to everyone, but Branch is the
No. 1. |
18 |
Rod Smith |
Smith will fall a little due to Walker, but is still a
solid veteran. |
19 |
Joe Horn |
Horn will be thrilled at the consistency of Brees compared
to Brooks. |
20 |
Joey Galloway |
Galloway emerged as a top receiver when Clayton seemed MIA. |
21 |
T.J. Houshmanzadeh |
Although Johnson leads the Bengals, T.J. can be just as big
of a threat. |
22 |
Roy Williams |
Williams has been the most consistent among Detroit's
mischievous three. |
23 |
Eddie Kennison |
Kennison quietly leads the Chiefs in yards every year. |
24 |
Derrick Mason |
Re-united with McNair, Mason can give the Ravens a
receiving threat. |
25 |
Joe Jurevicius |
With Braylon Edwards missing 1/3 of the season, Jurevicius
is No. 1. |
26 |
Andre Johnson |
Johnson fell off the earth last year, but Moulds' threat
will aid him. |
27 |
Muhsin Muhammad |
Less production as a Bear, but Grossman will be better than
Orton. |
28 |
Nate Burleson |
Burleson will regroup from injury season to step up as
leading receiver. |
29 |
Jerry Porter |
If the Raiders had a better offense, Porter could be in the
top ten. |
30 |
Drew Bennett |
The addition of Givens no longer makes him the only
receiver to pass to. |
31 |
David Givens |
Givens was a reliable target for Brady and will to the same
for Titans. |
32 |
Braylon Edwards |
He'll miss about six weeks, but will be featured often
during return. |
33 |
Lee Evans |
If the Bills actually had a QB, Evans may be in the top
fifteen. |
34 |
Laveraneus Coles |
Until the Jets settle on a QB too, Coles will be stuck down
here. |
35 |
Terry Glenn |
Glenn did well with Keyshawn, but now it's all about Owens. |
36 |
Keenan McCardell |
McCardell takes a hit with a first-year starting
quarterback under center. |
37 |
Matt Jones |
With Jimmy Smith gone, Jones will be on the field a lot
more often. |
38 |
Reggie Brown |
Brown should emerge as the Eagles top receiver with a
healthy McNabb. |
39 |
Antonio Bryant |
Bryant will play like last year for Smith, similar to when
he had Frye. |
40 |
Donte Stallworth |
Stallworth has been challenging Horn for the team's top
spot lately. |
41 |
Kevin Curtis |
With Bruce getting older, Curtis sees quite a few looks in
trips set. |
42 |
Cedrick Wilson |
With Holmes legal problems, Wilson will be the team's
second WR. |
43 |
Amani Toomer |
Toomer won't produce like Burress or Shockey, but still
does well. |
44 |
Ernest Wilford |
Surprised everyone with late-season production on
Jacksonville. |
45 |
Brandon Llyod |
If he can stay consistent, he'll compliment S. Moss very
well. |
46 |
Koren Robinson |
He hardly played last year, but will be back as a WR this
year. |
47 |
Michael Clayton |
Will rebound from horrific sophomore season to perform
average. |
48 |
Chad Jackson |
The only rookie receiver to crack the top 50 in a slim
Patriots group. |
49 |
Mike Williams |
Kitna could provide more stability for the Lions offense. |
50 |
Brandon Stokley |
Will benefit from play-action more than he did last year. |
