So a WR has to be career top 10 to have value? I reject that kind of thinking. By that account, all but 10 WRs in the league have less value than these 8 RBs.
Do I think that there are going to be WR1s and WR2s coming out of this class? Yes, I think like you that there are likely 4-5 who will fit that bill multiple years in their careers, plus some others with upside who could get there depending on how their next 3-4 years shake out.
No, a receiver doesn't have to be top ten to have value. But I also clarified my question with a top 10 fantasy wr
at any point in their career. There are dozens of receivers who have been top ten at some point in their career. Randall Cobb was top ten for a year or so. So were DeSean Jackson, Rishard Matthews, Terrelle Pryor and most of these guys
