2014 NFL Draft wide receiver rankings

Marqise Lee has been dethroned as our top ranked wide receiver.

Nelson Chenault-US PRESSWIRE

There's a new No. 1 wide receiver on our board. It's not fault of Marqise Lee's really. USC's offense has been a complete disaster in 2013, and Lee recently went down with an injury, but this is more about what Clemson's Sammy Watkins has done to earn the top ranking. He's displayed his physical dominance on a consistent basis to open the season, and with the two coming into the season neck and neck, he had to make the jump.

Meanwhile, LSU’s Odell Beckham has made a large leap up the board to No. 4. Zach Mettenberger has been impressive early in the season, and Beckham has been one of the biggest beneficiaries.

There are only three seniors among our top 15 wide receivers, so this group will be reliant on underclassmen.
