The 2025 NFL season is just weeks away and that means it is fantasy football season.
The wide receiver position has become one of the most important in leagues. The position has become deep but there is nothing better than a top-flight receiver to lead your team each week.
Below, check out the Top 10 receivers this season along with other rankings.
Top 10 Wide Receivers
- Ja’Marr Chase, Cincinnati Bengals: Chase is the consensus No. 1 pick in fantasy drafts across football. There is no player more valuable heading into the season than the receiver who led the league in receptions, yards, and touchdowns. The Bengals will be high-flying once again and Chase will get his usual amount of targets.
- Justin Jefferson, Minnesota Vikings: Jefferson was successful with Sam Darnold last season so no reason he cannot produce at a high level with J.J. McCarthy. Jefferson is 1A and 1B with Chase in terms of receiver in the NFL.
- CeeDee Lamb, Dallas Cowboys: The Cowboys will need to throw the ball to be successful this season. The team went out to get George Pickens in a trade but this will not impact Lamb’s fantasy value. He will be among the league leaders in targets once again this season.
- Amon-Ra St. Brown, Detroit Lions: The Lions lost Ben Johnson as offensive coordinator but return a lot of production within the offense. St. Brown continues to be the WR1 on the team after his second consecutive season with 1,200+ yards and double-digit touchdowns. He also has triple-digit receptions in three consecutive years.
- Malik Nabers, New York Giants: Nabers was second in the league in targets last season – behind only Chase. The Giants have a veteran under center this year and Nabers should see the same amount of volume. This is due to a lack of weapon within the offense. Despite being the focal point for defenses, Nabers finds a way to be open at all times.
- Nico Collins, Houston Texans: Collins might be one of the more under appreciated receivers but it seems as though fantasy owners are coming around. When healthy, Collins is a receiver that can produce at all three levels and is a matchup nightmare on the outside.
- Puka Nacua, Los Angeles Rams: There are questions around Matthew Stafford this season and this directly impacts Nacua. At full strength, the duo have a strong connection. Nacua is averaging 92 catches per season in his first two years.
- Brian Thomas Jr., Jacksonville Jaguars: Thomas Jr. is the next great wide receiver to come out of LSU. He did not waste time showing his promise as a 1,000-yard receiver. He will be the main weapon within the Jacksonville attack once again.
- Drake London, Atlanta Falcons: London broke out as a No. 1 receiver for the Falcons last season. Even when Kirk Cousins dipped toward the end of the season, London’s numbers were among the best in the league. Now with Michael Penix Jr., expected London to be treated like a WR1 once again.
- A.J. Brown, Philadelphia Eagles: The Eagles have endless options offensively but Brown continues to be the biggest threat on the outside. When the ball is in the air, he is getting a bulk of the targets.
