Puka Nacua became one of the league's elite receivers. He is incredibly productive and wins in multiple ways. He is a powerful route-runner who embraces physical contact mid-stem without being thrown off his path. Nacua creates trustworthy throwing windows for Stafford to target. His hand strength is incredible, and he's among the league's most sure-handed receivers. He blocks with great willingness, strength, and effectiveness. Nacua is difficult to tackle on first contact; he embodies a running back's mentality after the catch. The Rams' star wideout is a game-changing talent.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba has developed into one of the NFL's premier wide receivers. He is an elite separator against one-on-one coverage. He was a driving force behind the Seattle Seahawks' Super Bowl run. He is an advanced and nuanced route-runner with great body control, spatial awareness, tempo, and route IQ. Opposing defenses broke the huddle knowing his alignment at all times. JSN is not viewed as an elite speed threat, but he is a deceptive athlete, winning the vertical plane more than expected. His hands are among the most reliable in the league, making contested catches with high confidence. Last season, JSN recorded 119 receptions for 1,793 yards and 10 touchdowns, firmly placing him among the NFL's elite wide receivers.

Justin Jefferson is one of the premier wide receivers in the NFL with very few flaws to his game. He is a complete receiver and checks nearly every box. Jefferson is an excellent route-runner and separator against man or zone defenses. He is a "math changer" on offense because he draws multiple defenders in coverage, leading to double teams and bracket coverage to slow him down. His hands are reliable with on-target and off-target throws. Jefferson is a model of consistent production, entering year seven with six straight 1,000-plus yard seasons. Although his production declined, that's tied to the revolving door at the QB position last season. He is one of the best players in the league, with no positional value added. Anyone proclaiming that he's the best receiver in the league will receive no argument from me.
