Updated 2012 NFL Draft wide receiver rankings

Today’s rankings update looks at the wide receivers. There have been several dramatic shifts on where players are ranked compared to two months ago when this was last done.

Namely, players like Dwight Jones of North Carolina, Mohamed Sanu of Rutgers, Nick Toon of Wisconsin and Marvin McNutt of Iowa have risen quite highly. The biggest dropper is Greg Childs of Arkansas. He's been passed over by several teammates this season partly due to injury. Jeff Fuller of Texas A&M has slipped as well due to numerous shaky performances this season.
