Kelvin Benjamin
- His connection with Cam Newton will only get better after some seasoning so it wouldn't be wise to expect a sophomore slump here. Benjamin also struggled with drops last year which is a fixable mistake for young receivers.
TY Hilton
- Hilton relies on big plays a lot which makes me hesitant to put him in the top 10 but at the very least, he deserves an honorable mention.
Larry Fitzgerald
- The skill and talent are there but he's in a tough defensive division and he never has a good quarterback throwing him the ball.

Hirsch's Top 10
10. Randall Cobb
- Randall will be given a lot of money this offseason but this spot is reserved for him if and only if he remains in Green Bay. The speedster has a nack for gaining lots of yards on broken plays, something that Rodgers thrives in.
9. Brandon Marshall
- Injuries brought down Marshall's season significantly but the man is still as talented if not more talented than most of the players listed here.
8. A.J. Green
- AJ Green has the ability to be higher on this list but a fairly strong defensive division and the fact that Dalton is his QB pushes him lower than he should be.
7. Odell Beckham Jr.
- The return of Victor Cruz is a double edged sword. Cruz takes attention away from the spectacular rookie so defenses can't (try to) bottle him in, but Beckham won't be getting the mass of targets he used to as well.
6. Jordy Nelson
- Strong route running, consistent hands, and a phenomenal quarterback makes Jordy Nelson worthy of being a #1 wide receiver for your fantasy team.
5. Demarius Thomas
- Again, this is all depending on if he stays on the same team as Peyton Manning but he has the physical tools to dominate regardless.
4. Antonio Brown
- Despite being in a strong defensive division, Brown still manages to stay near the top of the list. His ability to take the tops off defenses is severely underrated.
3. Julio Jones
- If the Falcons improve their weak offensive line then there is no reason that Jones can't put up numbers that rival those slated above him in this list.
2. Dez Bryant
- No matter what team Dez goes to this off-season he will be a top tier player at the wide receiver.
1. Calvin Johnson
- His injury held him to either sitting or limit his usage to only being a decoy for much of the season. Calvin Johnson is still the best wide receiver in the league despite 2014's off year.
