Here is my top 13. Would love to see someone's take on a top 25

1 - Green - Just a gut feel here over Jones. Is the WR1 in CIN

2 - Jones - Jones does drop quite a few passes, and is the WR2 in Atl

3 - Little - This guy was my #3 WR pre draft, great spot in CLE as the #1

4 - Smith - Mike Wallace of the Ravens in 2012

5 - Baldwin - Not a big fan, but the Chiefs are

6 - Young - Great place to land for Young in DET

7 - Cobb - As mentioned before, will be a lot better player in GB than fantasy player

8 - V.Brown - This guy flew up the board and ends up on a great team with a great QB throwing the ball

9 - Hankerson - #1 in WASH, Moss sucks

10 - Salas - I liked Salas better than Pettis pre draft, but one of these guys will be a steal

11 - Pettis - See above

12 - Paul - Lands in a good stop in WASH, needs to stay out of trouble

13 - Jernigan - Always liked this guy, maybe it's his name. Giants are in need of a good slot guy

Nice lists, guys.

Tough to figure out where to go in the middle-late part of this, but my top six right now is:

1. AJ Green

2. J Jones

3. G Little

4. J Baldwin

5. V Brown

6. T Smith

At some point a ways down the list, I might look at Durham and Doss as sleeper types.

Hankerson and Salas seem to be guys that could make a splash, and maybe sooner rather than later.

 
cobb brown and salas underrated, smith baldwin young overrated
Can you tell me what you see in Salas? It seems like he was ranked low in the pre-draft 100 and didn't go to a great situation that would move him up.
The Rams have a promising young franchise QB and one of the worst WR corps in the NFL. I'd say that's a pretty great situation for a WR to step into.

Exactly. My only worry is that Salas' game is pretty similar to Amendola. Maybe they'll use Salas as their WR3 and use Amendola as a WR4/KR/PR, but at this point it's tough to say.

I think you are forgetting Danario Alexander. He may be rookie last year but he did flash some talent and skill as a WR and beside, Josh McDaniel loves a big and tall WR.

Danario and Salas are very different wideouts who certainly play different roles for a football team. The presence of Danario on St. Louis doesn't really hurt Salas' role on the team as much as Amendola's presence does. Both Amendola and Salas are slot WR types who run primarily underneath routes whereas Danario is more of a wideout who runs downfield routes.

I heard some chatter on amendola to the browns. But I think all stl wr could take a hit if they bring in Burress. I think thats a posibility.

 
Some here have Cobb realy undervalued. I think McCarthy has some versatile tools in Cobb and A Green this year. Cobb could very well be their version of Percy Harvin.

 
I really don't know jack about this class. I can barely remember these guys from school having only watched sec for the most part.

But I will say Cobb has the skills. He spent long enough at wr in school to learn to beat some decent corners. He's got great skills and good but not really elite speed.

Green and Jones are just different versions of equally good players. Julio has the physical edge and seems to have a more pro-ready body. AJ green is more polished bu less physical.

Seems like Cobb and Young landed in great situations.
