NFL WR Power Rankings: Ranking the Top 32
By Evan Massey
8. Randall Cobb, Green Bay Packers
Randall Cobb is one of the most dynamic wide receivers in the game, and the Green Bay Packers have yet to lock him up long-term. He is in the final year of his contract, and has put together a big season with 87 receptions for 1,207 yards and 10 touchdowns. At just 24 years of age, Cobb is a very attractive free agent options and is one of the best targets in the NFL.
7. Dez Bryant, Dallas Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys are currently battling for a top playoff spot, and have already locked up the NFC East over the Philadelphia Eagles. Dez Bryant has been a work in progress throughout his career, but he has transformed into a legitimate superstar this season. He has caught 84 passes for 1,221 yards and 14 touchdowns on the year, and is nearly impossible for defenders to stop.
6. Jeremy Maclin, Philadelphia Eagles
Philadelphia re-signed Jeremy Maclin this past offseason in hopes that he could be a solid number two or three option after coming back from a torn ACL. He has ended up being their number one option, and is one of the best in the NFL as well. Through 15 games this year, Maclin has caught 82 passes for 1,269 yards and 10 touchdowns and is finally reaching his full potential.
5. T.Y. Hilton, Indianapolis Colts
Another growing star at the wide receiver position is Indianapolis Colts’ number one target T.Y. Hilton. Andrew Luck has obviously made him his favorite target, and Hilton has hauled in 82 passes for 1,345 yards and seven touchdowns. He is one of the deadliest playmakers in the league due to his speed and route-running, and the Colts’ system fits him very nicely as well.
