I'll use this thread to talk about and breakdown the upcoming 2021 WR class. This lot is just bonkers. We just had an unbelievable one last year but this class is just as good if not better.
I think this year's class might be a lil more diverse/versatile?
Giving it a quick look over a few things jump out ... Size, athleticism & route running are all really impressive as a collective.
I could be wrong but it seems like we have more size this year? Plenty of size & big bodies. Ridiculous amount of sudden prospects with quicks and legit speed. Real 4.4 speed to go along with made you miss moves.
Top heavy & very deep, it'll be one of the better classes next year for sure. I could see ten top 50-60 picks. This league is being infused with a ton of young talent at the position and it's not letting up.
How I graded WR's over the years ...
