I’m listing two schools at receiver for a couple of reasons: First, I’m allowed. Second, there’s just so much talent here.

Alabama, again, is worth a mention. Jaylen Waddle and DeVonta Smith are terrific No. 2 options in their respective offenses, while Jerry Jeudy and Jameson Williams have that upside.

One of the Tide’s main rivals has an edge, however.

LSU product Justin Jefferson is a three-time All-Pro with an AP Offensive Player of the Year for the Minnesota Vikings. Ja’Marr Chase, the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2019, is a three-time Pro Bowl choice on the Cincinnati Bengals. They’ve both eclipsed 1,000 yards in each season, no matter if an injury limited them.

In such a short time frame, having two of the NFL’s best players at one position atones for limited production elsewhere. Racey McMath, Terrace Marshall Jr. and Kayshon Boutte have been relatively quiet.

Given that LSU saw Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr. become first-round picks in 2024, though, that should be changing soon.
