    I hate the WR rankings in general. 80% of those rankings are dependent on who's throwing them the football.

    1) USC (Williams raises the level for anybody at the WR position)

    2) UW (Penix is the same, but I give Williams a slight nod, and I think USC WRs athletically have the most upside)

    3) Oregon (Give Troy Franklin Penix or Williams, and he's the best WR in the conference. Nix is much improved, but Nix isn't close to the passer that Williams and Penix are)

    4-12 - Who gives a flying fuck...

    Oregon. They now have 2 guys that can stretch the field. uw has zero. Nix was the most accurate CFB QB for throws beyond 20 yards last year according to PFF.

    Arizona is at least a deserved notation at 4. Cowing is just as good as any WR in the conference. Tetraioa McMillan was super impressive last year and could have the highest ceiling of any WR in the conference. They got shit after that, but USC's depth is suspect after their top one (who is an Arizona transfer) and Oregon's a question mark after Franklin (despite with what you're all about to reply with about the Bama gun transfer and a guy who had 800 yards and four TDs in the Sun Belt.

    Lol at a minimum UW has 3 receivers that can stretch the field. Nix sucks Penix. Franklin is good and almost willed Oregon to a victory over UW last year but he can't do it all. We shall see how good GB3 is this year.

    This actually is retarded. Or Oregon really sucks at pass defense

    And we? know they suck at run defense
    If Polk would have entered the transfer portal seeking a #1 or #2 role Oregon would have been all over that. And yes, Franklin is a very good player.

    There's a lot to be excited about with Oregon's WR room. Don't think it's fair to put it above or at UW going into the season though.

    Franklin - Really good but no one is putting him ahead of either McMillan or Odunze right now.
    Holden - Almost no production last year not against Utah State, Louisiana-Monroe and Vandy. Bama has the least exciting WR room they've had in decades and if they wanted him, he'd be there.
    Tez - Ultra small. Four TDs last year in the Sun Belt. 1 TD second half of the season. A lot to prove.
    Bryant Jr - Very good 2021 season and could be a real good #2 or #3 if he gets that back but his production was equal to Ja'Lynn

    Germie Bernard is a big wild card for UW. Could be an unreal #4 or even #3. Seems at the least he pushed Taj Davis out, which is a great sign.

    No one in their right mind is taking Oregon's WR room over UW's.

    With Nix, I agree on Franklin. But if you match Franklin with Penix, Franklin is much better than he is at Oregon.
