As we continue to put together our base of operations in preparation for the 2020 season, we\u2019re getting out rankings and tiers for dynasty formats. We\u2019ve already covered the <\/span>quarterbacks<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>running backs<\/span><\/a>, and <\/span>tight ends<\/span><\/a> so far. If looking to go back and find our 2020 early season ranks and rookie class ranks prior to the NFL draft, <\/span>you can find those in the main rankings hub<\/span><\/a>. You can also find <\/span>a look at long-running production and fantasy trends for the wide receiver position here<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Those early season ranks already have initial thoughts and nuggets on players regarding their 2020 outlooks, so I\u2019m not going to double down on the same approach here. I encourage you to go check those out if you want to see my thoughts on a player heading into this upcoming season. Since there are so many wide receivers here, the tier writeups will be shorter than the other positions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Just for housekeeping purposes, some real quick methodology here that I am rolling over from the opening set of tiers and ranks. If you\u2019re new to how I do tiers, they are not like most. I make my dynasty tiers based on a blend of age, fantasy performance, career arc, team situation, and fantasy archetype. There is a large overlap to actual player rankings, but there can be some discord where the tiers don\u2019t specifically follow the rankings.<\/span><\/p>\n

The purpose of tiers not being a carbon copy of player rankings is to spot a potential arbitrage situation and shop in different buckets based on how I want to build my team. Sometimes I may want a veteran starter based on where my current roster is, other times I may want to chase more youth and upside. The other reason for doing this is that while player ranks can change, the tiers largely do not.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

*Player Age = Age on 9\/1\/2020<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Tier One<\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/span>WR1. Michael Thomas (Age: 27.5)
\n<\/b>2. Davante Adams (27.7)
\n<\/b>3. DeAndre Hopkins (28.2)<\/b><\/p>\n

The top three wideouts are absolute target hogs that are versatile in every area while having high touchdown equity. <\/span>Michael Thomas<\/b> has finished a season no lower than WR7 in points per game in any of his first four seasons and alleviated some of our post-Drew Brees concerns by posting a 42-553-1 line in five games without Brees this season\u2026 <\/span>DeAndre Hopkins<\/b> has finished as the WR2, WR2, and WR5 in points per game over the past three seasons. Even trading Deshaun Watson for Kyler Murray, Hopkins still has the best quarterback among the top fantasy wideouts outside of Tyreek Hill\u2026<\/span>Davante Adams<\/b> was the WR6 in points per game despite a \u201cdown\u201d year that was limited from an early-season injury. Adams posted 75-917-7 over his final 10 games including the postseason on 33.1% of the team targets.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier Two<\/h2>\n

4. Tyreek Hill (26.5)
\n<\/b>9. Odell Beckham (27.8)
\n<\/b>11. Mike Evans (27.0)<\/b><\/p>\n

All of these wideouts have multiple top-five scoring seasons in points per game while they are still in the apex age of production for proven performers. <\/span>Tyreek Hill<\/b> has been the WR35, WR3, and WR12 in points per game over the past three seasons. He carries some baggage but also attachment to the best quarterback in the league\u2026 A cocktail of changing teams, not playing up to par, playing through injuries and facing a rogues gallery of top corners made <\/span>Odell Beckham<\/b> one of the biggest disappointments in 2019. But in a down year, he still ranked as the WR12 in targets (133), the WR4 in end zone targets (13), the WR12 in expected points, and the WR8 in weighted opportunity rating\u2026<\/span> Mike Evans <\/b>joined Randy Moss as the only wideouts in NFL history to clear 1K yards in each of their first six seasons. Evans is in a pass-heavy offense and has put up his career numbers so far playing with Josh McCown, Mike Glennon, Ryan Fitzpatrick, and Jameis Winston.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier Three<\/h2>\n

5. Chris Godwin (24.5)
\n<\/b>6. JuJu Smith-Schuster (23.8)<\/b>
\n7. A.J. Brown (23.2)<\/b>
\n8. D.J. Moore (23.4)
\n<\/b><\/p>\n

The precocious quartet of WR1 options. Given their age and production already, even with a down season, all can retain value. <\/span>JuJu Smith-Schuster<\/b> is a testament to that already. <\/span>Chris Godwin<\/b> has improved across the board in every category in each of his first three seasons. Playing in a slot role that has churned fantasy points at all of Bruce Arians\u2019s stops, he may have to deal with a quarterback change in 2020\u2026<\/span>D.J. Moore<\/b> had 87-1,175-4 in his second season. Only early-career bugaboo is lack of scoring opportunities with 10 total end zone targets through two seasons. He could also have a new quarterback in 2020, but it would almost certainly be an upgrade\u2026 We didn\u2019t get any true answers on if Smith-Schuster can handle the attention of being a feature wideout given the collapse of the Steelers offense last and his injures\u2026 <\/span>A.J. Brown<\/b> was just the 18th rookie wideout to hit 1,000 yards in first season since the 1970 merger, <\/span>which has some pretty strong company<\/span><\/a>. But a 5-64-0 line on 10 targets over three postseason games is a reminder that you\u2019re also betting in the identity of the Titans offense.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier Four<\/h2>\n

10. Calvin Ridley (25.7)<\/b>
\n13. Amari Cooper (26.2)<\/b>
\n<\/b>15. Stefon Diggs (26.8)
\n<\/b>16. Kenny Golladay (26.8)<\/b>
\n<\/b>17. Allen Robinson (27.4)
\n<\/b>20. Keenan Allen (28.3)
\n<\/b>22. Tyler Lockett (27.9)<\/b>
\n27. Cooper Kupp (27.2)<\/b><\/p>\n

Wideouts that have cleared their early twenties and given us strong fantasy output. Everyone here is capable of multiple WR1 seasons still, but not as young as the tier above and hasn\u2019t yet shown the overall seasonal ceiling as the front two tiers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Amari Cooper <\/b>has gone over 1,000 yards in four of his first five seasons. Cooper is averaging 5.3 catches for 76.5 yards and 0.6 touchdowns per game (16.2 PPR PPG) since joining the Cowboys\u2026<\/span>Calvin Ridley<\/b> has been the WR22 and WR27 in overall scoring in his first two seasons. He averaged 17.8 PPR points per game after Mohamed Sanu was traded last season while Atlanta is losing another 97 targets in Austin Hooper and potentially another 70 targets from their team total if and when Devonta Freeman is released\u2026 <\/span>Stefon Diggs<\/b> is one of the most universally dynamic wideouts, being used in multiple roles and offenses so far and still delivering in each one. Playing with Josh Allen adds some potential for combustion, but Diggs played\u00a0with four different starting quarterbacks in Minnesota. \u2026 both <\/span>Kenny Golladay<\/b> and <\/span>Cooper Kupp<\/b> are older than you\u2019d anticipate since they were small school prospects, but each had 1,000 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2019\u2026 <\/span>Allen Robinson <\/b>bounced back in 2019 with his first 1,000-yard season since 2015\u2026 <\/span>Tyler Lockett<\/b> averaged a career-high 5.1 receptions per game\u2026 Only Michael Thomas and DeAndre Hopkins have more receptions than <\/span>Keenan Allen<\/b> among wideouts over the past three years. Allen will deal with his first season without Philip Rivers while he hasn\u2019t scored more than six touchdowns in a season since his rookie year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier Five<\/h2>\n

29. Julio Jones (31.6)<\/b><\/p>\n

We still have a handful of viable veteran wideouts, but there\u2019s no wide receiver with <\/span>Julio Jones\u2019s<\/b> intersection of age, ceiling and expected opportunity for the immediate season \u2014 which is why he gets his own tier to himself. There\u2019s nothing he can do this season to increase his dynasty value moving forward. He just had 99 catches for 1,394 yards and six touchdowns and fell over a round in current startup ADP compared to his closing ADP last September. But Jones hasn\u2019t slowed down as of yet, posting at least 1,300 receiving yards in each of the past six seasons. He\u2019s the primary veteran trade target for contending teams while he\u2019s past the selling point of getting 100 cents on the dollar for the majority of teams that missed their window with him.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier Six<\/h2>\n

12. D.K. Metcalf (22.7)<\/b>
\n14. Courtland Sutton (24.9)<\/b>
\n<\/b>18. CeeDee Lamb (21.4)
\n<\/b>19. Jerry Jeudy (21.4)<\/b>
\n21. Terry McLaurin (25.0)<\/b>
\n23. Michael Gallup (24.4)
\n<\/b>24. Deebo Samuel (24.6)
\n<\/b>25. Marquise Brown (23.2)
\n<\/b>26. D.J. Chark (23.9)<\/b>
\n<\/b>32. Justin Jefferson (21.2)
\n<\/b>35. Henry Ruggs (21.6)<\/b><\/p>\n

Year 1-3 wide receivers that have the ceiling potential to deliver long-standing fantasy seasons at a high level, but also a touch of volatility. I already covered the <\/span>top-four rookie wideouts expected to be first-round picks<\/span><\/a> in this year\u2019s draft\u2026<\/span>Courtland Sutton<\/b> broke out (72-1,112-6) while playing with three quarterbacks, but was the WR38 or lower in four of his five games playing with Drew Lock\u2026<\/span>D.K. Metcalf<\/b> matched or bested Tyler Lockett in targets in 10-of-18 games while leading the league in end zone targets (18) during the regular season\u2026<\/span>D.J. Chark<\/b> also broke out (73-1,008-8) in year two, but was the WR40 in overall scoring Week 6-17\u2026 <\/span>Terry McLaurin<\/b> had 58-919-7 while scoring as the WR30 in points per game as a rookie. Five of his seven touchdowns came from Case Keenum. Dwayne Haskins is still a potential thorn while Washington should add receiving help this offseason\u2026 <\/span>Marquise Brown<\/b> had 46-584-7 while playing with a screw in his foot year one. Attachment to an offense that uses their wide receivers the least\u2026<\/span>Deebo Samuel<\/b> led all wideouts in rushing yardage (159 yards with three touchdowns), he just needs more overall volume from the passing offense, averaging 5.9 targets per game over his final 12 games.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier Seven<\/span><\/h2>\n

28. Tyler Boyd (25.8)
\n<\/b>30. Jarvis Landry (27.8)
\n<\/b>31. Robert Woods (28.4)
\n<\/b>33. Christian Kirk (23.8)
\n<\/b>44. Sterling Shepard (27.6)
\n<\/b>57. Anthony Miller (25.9)
\n<\/b>62. Jamison Crowder (27.2)
\n<\/b>66. Dede Westbrook (26.8)<\/b><\/p>\n

Our primary slot wideouts still short of the age cliff for production. <\/span>Tyler Boyd<\/b> has been the WR19 and WR27 in points per game the past two seasons\u2026 <\/span>Jarvis Landry<\/b> has averaged at least 5.0 receptions per game in each of his first six NFL seasons\u2026 <\/span>Robert Woods<\/b> has been the WR13 and WR8 in expected points over the past two seasons\u2026 <\/span>Christian Kirk<\/b> didn\u2019t quite break out in year two as hoped, but his receptions per game jumped to 5.2 in 2019\u2026<\/span>Jamison Crowder<\/b> led the Jets with 122 targets while Robby Anderson could be leaving town and Sam Darnold could enter the season healthy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier Eight<\/span><\/h2>\n

36. Adam Thielen (30.0)
\n<\/b>40. T.Y. Hilton (30.8)
\n<\/b>50. John Brown (30.4)
\n<\/b>51. A.J. Green (32.1)
\n<\/b>83. Julian Edelman (34.3)<\/b><\/p>\n

The 30-plus lead wideout group.<\/span>Adam Thielen<\/b> gets a bump back to lead wideout status after the trade of Stefon Diggs, but Thielen also has had 69-866-9 over his past 18 games played\u2026 <\/span>T.Y. Hilton\u2019s<\/b> two worst fantasy seasons have come without Andrew Luck, but a\u00a0 pairing with Philip Rivers will be a significant upgrade over Jacoby Brissett while he should dominate the team target opportunities\u2026 <\/span>A.J. Green<\/b> has never finished lower than WR17 in points per game in any of the seasons he\u2019s played, but Green has missed 29 games since the 2015 season\u2026 <\/span>Julian Edelman<\/b> has been the WR6, WR11, and WR5 in targets per game over his past three seasons, but age and the loss of Tom Brady make him a fleeting fantasy asset.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier Nine<\/h2>\n

34. Mike Williams (25.9)<\/strong>
\n37. Will Fuller (26.4)<\/strong>
\n38. DeVante Parker (27.6)<\/strong>
\n39. Tee Higgins (21.6)<\/strong>
\n54. Curtis Samuel (24.1)<\/strong>
\n55. Robby Anderson (27.3)<\/strong>
\n56. Brandin Cooks (26.9)<\/strong>
\n58. James Washington (24.4)<\/strong>
\n68. Sammy Watkins (27.2)<\/strong>
\n69. Corey Davis (25.6)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The vertical, deep-ball wideouts that are still in the apex range for production. <\/span>Mike Williams<\/b> is going from negative touchdown regression to the positive end of the spectrum. His targets, receptions, and yards all took a step forward last season, but will have to deal with the pending quarterback change\u2026 <\/span>DeVante Parker<\/b> turned in the rare fifth-year breakout in 2019 and showed actually WR1 upside\u2026 <\/span>Robby Anderson <\/b>has given us pockets of strong fantasy production while playing with pedestrian quarterback play. Hopefully, he lands in a spot with an established one\u2026This where I see <\/span>Tee Higgins<\/b> being used out of the box in the NFL, as a downfield and red zone target…Brandin Cooks<\/b> is the one player here with extended fantasy success after having five straight 1,000-yard seasons to start his career prior to last season\u2019s evaporated role and continued concussion concerns…Sammy Watkins<\/b> hasn\u2019t reached 700 yards in a season since 2015 and just had arguably his best opportunity for production a year ago\u2026 Corey Davis<\/b> owners are holding on for a DeVante Parker-esque breakout, which is hard to latch onto after falling behind A.J. Brown in year three.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier Ten<\/h2>\n

43. Diontae Johnson (24.2)<\/b>
\n<\/b>45. Darius Slayton (23.6)<\/b>
\n48. Mecole Hardman (22.5)
\n<\/b>53. Preston Williams (23.4)
\n<\/b>70. Hunter Renfrow (24.7)
\n<\/b>75. Steven Sims (23.4)<\/b><\/p>\n

These are the rookie wideouts that gave us pockets of production in their first NFL season that we\u2019re looking to take another step forward in year two. With no wideouts here being attached to first-round draft capital, we still need to see who from this group can avoid being this season\u2019s Dante Pettis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier 12<\/h2>\n

49. N\u2019Keal Harry (22.7)<\/b>
\n<\/b>57. Parris Campbell (23.1)<\/b>
\n65. Allen Lazard (24.7)<\/b>
\n73. Miles Boykin (23.9)<\/b>
\n76. J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (23.7)
\n<\/b>84. Andy Isabella (23.8)
\n<\/b>88. Jalen Hurd (24.6)<\/b>
\n92. Josh Reynolds (25.5)<\/b>
\n103. Tre'Quan Smith (24.7)]<\/b>
\n113. Auden Tate (23.6)
\n<\/b>112. Dante Pettis (24.9)<\/b>
\n<\/b>120. DaeSean Hamilton (25.5)
\n<\/b>104. Hakeem Butler (24.5)<\/b><\/b>
\n<\/b>110. Jakobi Meyers (23.8)<\/b>
\n111. Scott Miller (23.1)<\/b>
\n121. Keke Coutee (23.6)<\/b>
\n126. Russell Gage (24.6)
\n<\/b>127. Olamide Zaccheaus (23.1)
\n<\/b>128. Justin Watson (25.4)<\/b><\/p>\n

This tier is made up of young wideouts still playing on their first contract, but have yet to get out of the starting blocks. It\u2019s a group that we\u2019re still holding out hope for in terms of a first contract breakout while they continue to simmer on rosters. As D.J. Chark showed last season, we want to give our young wideouts a touch of breathing room on that first contract even if they don\u2019t produce right away, but every year that passes the window closes just a bit more. Third-year players here have shown a flicker of fantasy potential already, but haven\u2019t gotten that spark to ignite. The most appealing player in this group is <\/span>N\u2019Keal Harry<\/b>. Harry didn\u2019t take the field until Week 11 of his rookie season and managed just 12 catches on 24 targets for 105 yards (8.8 Y\/R) with two scores while active. An unknown quarterback situation clouds his breakout potential, but the only true threat on the depth chart currently is a 34-year-old receiver.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier 13<\/h2>\n

61. Marvin Jones (30.5)
\n<\/b>82. Alshon Jeffery (30.5)
\n<\/b>86. Golden Tate (32.1)<\/b>
\n91. Emmanuel Sanders (33.5)<\/b>
\n97. DeSean Jackson (33.8)<\/b>
\n<\/b>105. Cole Beasley (31.3)<\/b>
\n106. Larry Fitzgerald (37.0)<\/b>
\n108. Randall Cobb (30.0)
\n<\/b>109. Mohamed Sanu (31.0)<\/b><\/p>\n

Our tier of golden oldies. These wideouts past the age cliff of 30 entering 2020 can still be fantasy relevant short term and provide some roster glue on contending teams.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier 14<\/h2>\n

79. Kenny Stills (28.4)
\n<\/b>80. Breshad Perriman (27.0)
\n<\/b>85. John Ross (25.8)
\n<\/b>87. Tyrell Williams (28.6)
\n<\/b>93. Devin Funchess (26.3)<\/b>
\n107. Zach Pascal (25.7)<\/b>
\n114. Albert Wilson (28.1)<\/b>
\n117. Chris Conley (27.9)<\/b>
\n122. Adam Humphries (27.2)<\/b>
\n123. Demarcus Robinson (25.9)<\/b>
\n124. Kendrick Bourne (25.1)<\/b>
\n129. Keelan Cole (27.4)<\/b>
\n139. Nelson Agholor (27.3)
\n<\/b>140. Duke Williams (27.3)
\n<\/b>
\n<\/b><\/p>\n

Bringing our wide receiver journey to a close, this final grouping are guys who have yet to hit the point of no return on the age spectrum, but also have never found their footing as consistent fantasy contributors over the front portion of their careers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Draft capital investment will shake up some of the order, but <\/span>we\u2019ve covered all of these rookie wideouts pre-draft in the rookie rankings<\/span><\/a>. I placed this tier higher than the next tier because in startups that include rookies, you\u2019ll be enticed often to try the next new thing over hoping the trail of breadcrumbs in the next group leads you to a breakout.<\/span><\/p>\n
