Summary

The 2024 wide receiver class was fantastic, but we may just be scratching the surface as some players are set to break out in 2025. We give our overall thoughts on the class, some fun facts (5:30) and our Top 5 Sophomore WRs (7:10). Is it Brian Thomas Jr. or Malik Nabers at #1? How do we rank #3-5 (18:50)? Ladd McConkey seems set as WR3 but do we like Marvin Harrison Jr. or Xavier Worthy next? ... News and notes (29:10) followed by Sophomore WR Superlatives!
