They allow fantasy owners to know when a drop-off at a position is coming. These are our WR Tier rankings. These are the top two elite options entering this fantasy season. They are in a class of their own, but there are some wideouts knocking on the door.
This group has elite talent, and we wouldn't be shocked if any of them made a push for the WR1 overall spot. Our only real concern in this group is Rice's off-field issues. This group just barely missed the cut from tier 2 for a number of reasons. Nabers currently has questions surrounding his knee, Collin is often injured and has a mediocre quarterback, and Pickens has only done it once and is still the WR2 on his own team.
The Tier 4 trio has three stud receivers who could all make a huge jump this season into the high-end WR1 conversation. This is a group with a ton of upside but also quite a few concerns, whether it be injuries, age, a shaky finish to last season, or being in the worst passing attack in the league year after year. You can find a ton of value in this tier.
There are a ton of potential fantasy stars in this group; however, we also have too many worries to move them any higher. All of these players should be safe options. We just aren't sure the upside is there without someone else getting injured. This tier is a bit of a mixed bag.
Here, we have some high-upside rookies and WR2s who will have week-winning performances but lack consistency. These aren't receivers we necessarily want to be drafting, but they are worth mentioning and could end up being solid flex options this season.
