2. AFC West

Denver Broncos – Courtland Sutton, Tim Patrick, Jerry Jeudy

Kansas City Chiefs – Juju Smith-Schuster, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Skyy Moore

Las Vegas Raiders – Devante Adams, Hunter Renfrow, Keelan Cole

Los Angeles Chargers – Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Josh Palmer

I know what you’re thinking. How can the AFC West be No. 2 on this list? Devante Adams, Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, and Hunter Renfrow?! Well, the Chiefs lost Tyreek Hill and replaced him with a new crew of receivers. Courtland Sutton hasn’t showcased a full season in I don’t know how long. Although this division is top-heavy, there’s still much to prove.

1. NFC West

Arizona Cardinals – DeAndre Hopkins, Hollywood Brown, Rondale Moore

Los Angeles Rams – Cooper Kupp, Allen Robinson, Van Jefferson

San Fransisco 49ers – Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, Jauan Jennings

Seattle Seahawks – Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf, Dee Eskridge

Eight players on this list can be a No. 1 wideout on almost any team in the NFL. Besides the 49ers’ dynamic duo, everyone already has. Hopkins was a No. 1 for the Texans before being traded for pocket change, and Allen Robinson was a No. 1 for two different teams before taking this gig in LA.

DK and the most underrated WR in the entire league, Tyler Lockett, go back and forth on who the top option is in Seattle. Then you have Super Bowl 56 MVP Cooper Kupp, coming off a triple crown season. The NFC West undoubtedly holds the title of the best group of receivers in the NFL.
