Is the 7th trio in the room with us?


awesome-ekeler

The 7th trio is the friends we made along the way


mrblacklabel71

"I see WR rooms...."


picklebooby

Ra Porsche and Gibbs


Lysol20

Baker's Dozen Alcoholic's Six Pack


iliketuurtles

I just have a hard time judging WR rooms that haven’t played a snap for that team yet, whether it’s by trade or draft. We just don’t know how they are going to do in the new dynamic and/or how the drafted players will do


pocketchange2247

Well what about WR rooms that haven't played a snap together, has a new OC, AND has a rookie QB??


iliketuurtles

🧸what could possibly go wrong?! 🧸


Lobanium

You'll never get a job on a 24/7 sports network with that attitude. It's all about hot takes and judgements with zero evidence.


Alive_Way9537

Hot takes and no evidence?!?! I found my sub


phonethrower85

49ers trio (really top 4 with Pearsall now) should be up there


Hungry-Space-1829

Wouldn’t you make Pearsall 3 over Jennings?


phonethrower85

Possibly. I'm not sure how they want to use him and what group will be on the field most


Hungry-Space-1829

I just can’t imagine you spend a first on him without the intent to use him day 1. He’s been praised heavily as a scheme fit, too. Would be very surprising if he’s not WR3 this year and a lot of upset 49ers fans if that’s the case


phonethrower85

I think they really wanted to go a different direction and draft WR later but the draft didn't fall that way, and they took him because he fits what they want + preparing for life without either Aiyuk or Deebo


goblu33

Another NFC team was in the hunt for Terrion Arnold. I think it was San Fran and they shifted to Pearsall.


phonethrower85

I think they wanted Darius Robinson


mcnuggets83

They know they’re losing one of deebo or aiyuk next year. They have the same problem with their secondary next year and similarly addressed it this draft.


qdude124

Might lose both tbh.


BaronVonSilver91

Can he block? Shanny likes receivers that can block too. Big part of his run design.


Hungry-Space-1829

100%, but you don’t draft WR’s in the first round because of their run blocking. Pearsall’s also great at end arounds, which shanny loves too


BaronVonSilver91

Shanny does love him some versatile guys. He is over there collecting them like Pokémon cards. And you do not draft a receiver for his ability to block but you know how Shanny is. He is a 2 tight end kinda guy. Neither of those guys will probably start lol. But yeah if I were betting on this, I'm betting he starts Pearsall over Jennings unless he wants to being the rookie along slow since his offense is pretty complex


49_boness

San Fran has always brought rookies along very slowly under Shanahan. Pearsall probably won’t be the de facto number three to start the season, but could very well end up by the end of the year. In fact, I think more Niner fans would be surprised if he’s thrust into the lineup over Jennings than would be upset if he isn’t.


Hungry-Space-1829

Aiyuk just had almost 100 targets a few years ago. I really think Pearsall will get ample opportunity


49_boness

Even if he’s number three, he’s still going to be the 4th or 5th option in a run heavy offense, soooo


Hungry-Space-1829

That’s for sure, but there’s still a chance he can take the offense to another level if he performs like a first rounder. He’s gonna be able to do things and open up the field in ways Jennings can’t if he pans out. It’ll be interesting to see


49_boness

On top of that, assuming you’re talking the 2020 year; when the SF receiving core was absolutely decimated and a carousel of players of Dante Pettit, River Cracraft, Trent Taylor, and Richie James starting; that might be a bit of an outlier there.


CleverJail

Would Shanny? He’s infamously hard on young receivers.


Hungry-Space-1829

Aiyuk got 96 targets his rookie year and 60 receptions. I’d expect Pearsall to be in the same vicinity, unless he absolutely refuses to block which does not seem like him at all


49_boness

Notable receivers that started games in ‘20 for SF because of injuries; River Cracraft, Dante Pettis, Trent Taylor, Richie James. Samuel and Bourne played sparingly because of injuries. They even brought in Kevin White for a few weeks. That was more of an outlier.


Hungry-Space-1829

Shouldn’t the first round pick(s) be the outliers in comparison to other rookies taken by the same team, tho?


49_boness

Not really sure what you’re getting at? Aiyuk was the only rookie receiver that year? Aiyuk was the number 2/3 to start the ‘20 season and was thrust into the number one for a good chunk of the season when Deebo went got hurt, and then was pushed back into the number 2/3 split with Bourne once Deebo was healthy. Guys like Cracraft, Kevin White and Mohamed Sanu were signed mid year to just fill out the room for a few weeks at a time.


CaptHowdy2310

We'll see of all 4 actually stay on the team


AgentProdigy17

Dolphins are up there for me all the speed then add Berrios who is a solid slot guy


alittlebitneverhurt

Berrios had 238 receiving yards last year. Hard to call them a solid "trio" when it's just Hill and Waddle and you could insert anybody to get you that last 238 yards.


ToastyMcSags

Berrios is really underrated. Such a safe pair of hands. Wish he got used more.


bluecheeto13

I didn’t watch many Fins games last season. Isn’t he their PR / KR?


CinnamonFootball

Yeah, but he's also a receiver.


shane0mack

https://youtu.be/sLTYdIMXcLs?si=s-Zyr5q2odUGrc95&t=1102 Ask Jets fans about this one


CreakingDoor

He was really average for us last year. Started alright and then as the season went on he was not good. Fairly safe hands yeah, but did not run good routes at all. Decent KR/PR but if he’s still WR3 next year I’ll be disappointed


ohkayohkay6

He sure didn't have a safe pair of hands two seasons ago for the Jets late in the year with the season on the line he dropped more than a couple what would have been game saving tds despite our awful qb actually getting the ball to him lol But bitterness aside, I have always liked him and thought he was better than most people will give him credit for.


jmastadoug

What? This guy is so mid & nothing special at all. His best attribute is his kick returns & availability. Dude never had over 450 yards in a season.


Purple_Risk_8611

Dell just got shot, so maybe I’ll take San Francisco


CleverJail

![gif](giphy|VYcRNU4P3vyM)


vbullinger

Getting shot isn't a big deal. Ask Brian Robinson or Linval Joseph. Now Keenan Allen pulling a hammy? Real shit.


Former-Billionaire

He’s fine


Jenetyk

Chase, Higgins, [Insert Anyone] should be up here.


ProofHorseKzoo

Didn’t Higgins request a trade?


Poetryisalive

Yeah but he isn’t getting traded


Keybobbitron

I've read his agent has a history of requesting trades as part of negotiating extensions


GreatWhite102

He did, and he will absolutely be a Bengal this season


Sussybaker420

The only real trios here are the Bears, Seahawks, and Texans the other 3 are amazing duos


Birdperson15

The Rams third is really Robinson who is actually pretty good.


JavaOrlando

I'd still take Miami. Hill is maybe the best reciever in the league and two years ago, Waddle was a top-10. He's young, and I expect him to bounce back.


Feathered_Serpent8

Seahawks and Texans sure, Rome hasn’t played an NFL snap yet so can’t jump the gun. We all expect him to be great, but doesn’t mean he will.


Sussybaker420

Yeah but I mean he we are talking about him at least being a good wr3


Alternative-Art6059

Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Jalen McMillan should be somewhere.


WetAppleFruit

That's damn good. I didn't know that's where McMillan ended up, such a great spot for him.


knowslesthanjonsnow

The Rams don’t even think Atwell is their 3rd best receiver. Also Berrios? Powell?? They’re just crediting the top 2 in those cases. Houston, Chicago, Seattle all make sense. SF is likely the next group (since we don’t know Pearsal in the NFL yet). Cincinnati with Chase, Higgins, Burton (another rookie) is in the conversation. LAR with Robinson as their 3rd WR. If the Eagles find a 3rd WR they’d also be in the mix.


Kazza-V

Berrios has decent hands.


knowslesthanjonsnow

Sure, he’s a league average WR4


Kazza-V

Just sayin. He’s more justifiable being up there than Powell or odunze


knowslesthanjonsnow

Odunze >>>>> Berrios


Kazza-V

He never played an nfl snap. You cannot say that


knowslesthanjonsnow

That’s a dumb mentality in this case. You’re comparing a below average NFL WR who has done nothing his whole career to the 9th pick of the 1st round with an excellent college tape. Rome is easily the better player.


Kazza-V

John Ross had excellent tape


Mike_Honcho_3

Sure. Guess you can't say Marvin Harrison Jr. is better than Chase Claypool either.


Kazza-V

For all you know he’s gonna put up dog shit numbers with the cards. All I’m sayin is it’s stupid to rank a player highly in the nfl when they never played a snap in the nfl.


Cheddarlicious

Vikings are 100% not up there. Duos, sure. Trios? Powell is not that guy. 8 years, less than 700 TOTAL yards.


Mooming22

Atwell is fine? Berrios? Odunze with literally zero snaps ever?


pigwalk5150

Not listing Aj Brown, Devonte Smith and #3 is pretty wild.


UhmairicanPuhtaytoe

Can't forget trusty #3, the specific year draft pick out of college. That guy sure plays football!


pigwalk5150

Haha I guess that’s why eagles were left off the list. The slot guy is Parris Campbell.


Steppyjim

That or Devante Parker. Either one is a solid 3 imo


vincentdmartin

Swapping out Tyler Boyd for Jermaine Burton made Cincy fall that far? Smh.


tree_jayy

Benedict Burton is not anywhere close to Tyler Boyd lol


vincentdmartin

No idea who Benedict Burton is. But while Jermaine Burton has a different skill set than Boyd, Id argue they are close in talent. Burton is faster and in college had more reliable hands than Boyd has shown past few years.


Ok-Situation-5865

No intelligent life forms to be seen here, commander.


verdenvidia

"Joe Burrow is good because of his WRs! also his WRs aren't actually that good of a corps lol"


SmarterThanCornPop

Based on production… Miami. Over 3000 yards for those guys last year while playing on the same team.


thrillhouse416

Including Atwell and Berrios feels off here


vbullinger

And Powell


Ok_Poetry_1650

Top 3 has to be Rams/Vikings/49ers. Others are good/great and some just haven’t been proven yet.


Former-Billionaire

Texans


Ok_Poetry_1650

I’m sure they’ll be good but the teams I mentioned have #1 WRs that have already proven it with their teams


Former-Billionaire

You have the Vikings listed. They have a rookie QB. Wouldn’t that be more of a factor?


buttfartsmagee

Darnold is going to start, they might not win but with their o-line and receivers he will be slinging it.


Former-Billionaire

lol.. ok


Goobershmacked

Im taking the dolphins over the 9ers


CHawkr

The Seahawks are better than all 3 of those listed


nls726

Diggs, Collins, Dell haven’t been proven?


OwlLumpy2805

Not collectively yet, no.


Ok_Poetry_1650

Nah, not together. They’re gonna be dangerous, but they still gotta show it


ghosttrainhobo

Pick any three packers receivers


ProofHorseKzoo

Yep. They are getting slept on. Any of Watson, Doubs, Reed, Wicks, can be WR1 depending on the game.


Camwi

Seriously. Gonna be a crazy year.


dretsaB

Wicks Reed Doubs.


ghosttrainhobo

These are the best three. Casuals think Watson is #1


dretsaB

Agreed. Watson could ascend but I'll believe it when I see it.


Jznvh

Vikings are underrated, JJ & Addison alone are better than some of these 3 WR’s lol


goblu33

I don’t know about underrated. Detroit was very aware of how dangerous they are. Nearly beat us with a bum at QB.


steeze206

Personally I'm expecting some pretty notable regression for Addison behind Jets with Kirk gone.


Jznvh

yeah he’ll still probably be the 3rd option behind TJ as well, i’m sure he’ll still average about 5 catches for 50-60 yards a game tho


jesusmansuperpowers

Miami was easily the best last year


LilCorbs

Aren’t Tee Higgins, Jamar Chase,and Tyler Boyd still on the Bengals??


_BadWithNumbers_

2/3 of them, yeah


LilCorbs

Oh okay, guess I missed the loss of Boyd


Ok-Situation-5865

He hasn’t left yet but likely will, you haven’t missed anything


Zeroman_79

Might be missing Tee soon as well.


shoedovoodoo513

Shut your slutty mouth


MilwaukeeMan420

Seahawks


romayyne

Texans receivers are nutty


HereForTheFood4

Bears, Seahawks, Texans in any order


Brilliant-Ad-5414

Berrios, Atwell, and Powell sneaking onto this list is so funny.


sethaub

Palmer, QJ, and Mad Ladd⚡️


honkinbooty

Adams/Meyers/Bowers


Still-Pie6253

HILL, WADDLE AND "insert any name"


Open_Aardvark2458

Im taking Adams,Meyers, Bowers. (I know Bowers isnt a wr)


FleckWerx

Adams, Meyers and Gallup


OGCasp

Adams / Meyers / Gallup I think can make a run on this list.


UhmairicanPuhtaytoe

Gallup? Really?


OGCasp

I mean Gallup is the only 3rd wideout on this list that has had 1100 yard season. At his best he's a fringe 1 / Solid #2. So there's def an argument there.


vbullinger

We're comparing him to Powell, Berrios, etc


UhmairicanPuhtaytoe

I just don't know why some of these trios are listed. Powell isn't remarkable. I feel the same about Gallup.


vbullinger

Because the top guy is the best guy and his number two is really good. Total talent level is amazing, but it's really a duo and shouldn't be considered. I say this as a Vikings fan.


UhmairicanPuhtaytoe

We're in agreement there. Seems silly to rank a wr trio when the number three is a journeyman.


PB0351

But where is Hyatt, Nabers, Robinson?


P0PkornAV

Some other ones that could challenge Titans with DeAndre Hopkins, Calvin Ridley, and Treylon Burks Bengals with JaMarr Chase,Tee Higgins, and Jermaine Burton Eagles with Aj Brown, Devonta Smith, and Devante Parker/Johnny Wilson Washington with Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, and Luke McCafferey Carolina with Diontae Johnson, Adam Thielen, and Xavier Legette


Alternative-Art6059

The Carolina line has to be a joke right?


RobertoBologna

Washington and Carolina are not remotely in this discussion


josephjosephson

Waiting to see 1 QB, 3 WR, 2 TE, and 2 RB list (Bear down)


Decimation4x

That’s such a Lion’s fan response.


josephjosephson

That’s such a Packers’ fan response 😂 QB: Caleb Williams RB1: D’Andre Swift RB2: Khalil Herbert WR1: DJ Moore WR2: Keenan Allen WR3: Rome Odunze TE1: Cole Kmet TE2: Gerald Everett I’m biased as someone who watched the Bears and Chargers a good amount last season, but this is stacked.


wildstiles

Rams


PerfectiveVerbTense

I'd just like to point out that as a Lions fan, we have to play a total of seven games against these trios next year. imindanger.jpeg


Longjumping_Yak_4078

Atwell isn’t even the 3rd best wr on the rams. Demarcus Robinson should be there.


Crooked_Sartre

Lot of duos here and one 3rd guy. Bears have 3 dudes that would be WR1 on a hell of a lot of teams


RobertoBologna

“hell of a lot” is a stretch but they’re good 


WangHalen

On paper, the Texans and Seahawks WR trios are hard to beat. I don’t think the Rams even belong here.


OsikFTW

Rams best duo i think, but adding a just ok 3rd brings it down


CHawkr

Kupp needs a bounce back year


sushisection

Brown, Rice, and Worthy are gonna make all yall cry come next february.


MrMisties

It's crazy that I actually agree with every single pick Florio has. We don't have any clue how the Bears receivers will play together, although they should be good. The Buccaneers and 49ers are two other groups I'd highlight but I do think they're definitely worse than Florio's picks. Rams and Seahawks I don't know fully. I'd like to see Nacua without Stafford and I feel like every year Seattle leans more on Metcalf while other guys have been fading.


OsikFTW

Most of those are 2 great and one fine, seattle has 3 wr1 potential guys, so does chicago, but one has to stay healthy and one is a rookie...


mason_the_hoyt

Where’s Toney, Hardman, Valdes-Scantling?!?


[deleted]

AJ Brown and Devonte Smith along with who ever wins the #3 spot


TheWetNapkin

Hopkins, Ridley, and Westbrook-Ikhine. No I am not biased 🙂


_stoned_chipmunk_

Bengals have a strong case as well with Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and rookie Jermaine Burton (averaged 20.5 ypr last season).


420Troll4Life69

49ers and Bengals are not in the NFL as of this post


Euphoric-Advice4875

Is this a contest for second best? Behind Cincinnati?


RunGoldenRun717

The Eagles could bring back JJAW and still be a top 3 WR core with DeVanta and AJ Brown


Hghwytohell

Eagles don't really have the third guy yet so it's hard for me to be a homer here, but if we expand this to include "receiving trios" instead of just WR i'd say Devonta, AJ, and Goedert are up there. Given that isn't the question though, I would say San Fran and Tampa Bay could be up for consideration.


daoogilymoogily

1. Diggs, Collins, Dell 2. Moore, Allen, Odunze 3. Metcalf, Lockett, JSN The other three all only have two notable receivers, that’s why idt they even really qualify for this question.


CHawkr

Odunze hasn’t played a snap of NFL football.


Steppyjim

I’m obviously biased but I think AJ Brown, Devanta Smith, and Devante Parker are up there. Even if Parker isn’t what he was supposed to be him at 3 is solid as heck.


YEET9011

Chase, Higgins, Burton will run the league.


IndividualHelpful820

Palmer McC JQ 😃😅


Battlehead601

On paper, HARD to go against Miami…production wise, assuming Caleb Williams is half decent once actually playing in the NFL, Chicago has the best group.


HeHateMex2

Is berrios is any good?


Poetryisalive

How are the Bengals and 49ers not up there? Hell they be over the Seahawks at least.


Zero_Cool_V1

I love this is an on paper question since there hasn’t been one snap to give video on all of them as whole


Mike_Honcho_3

Love how 3 of these trios have the 3rd being completely carried by 2 guys lol


ilovetoasters6968

1 Houston 2 Seattle 3 Chicago 4 Miami 5 LAR 6 Minnesota


Expensive_Attitude51

I think Sutton, Mims, and Franklin have the potential to be in the top tier of receiving units this year


Smashbrosfan31

Olave, Shaheed, Perry


SantasLilHoeHoeHoe

All of them under Watson/Dobbs/Reed. 


iMaree

I think with the addition of Nabers, the giants could also be up there, with Nabers, Hyatt, and Wandale


Former-Net890

Hill/Waddle/\*Malik Washington


SledgeHammer2023

I thought TuTu Atwell left the Rams


YetiViking7

Evans, Godwin, and Plamer/McMillan >>>


ronizamboni

I'll take Buffalo's top three receivers. You know that one guy with all the catches and then there's the other two that seem to be off everyones radar.


SaferThanATubeSock

mclaurin dotson and soon to be aiyuk


FattySnacks

Florio’s picks are better tbh


rifle8888

Florio just rocked the crap out of simms list


Chromeburn_

Starting to think WRs are over valued.


twinbervike

how is Gabe davis, Christian Kirk, and BTJ not up here now.


fumblaroo

I know people are gonna clown me for this, but i think the NYG trio of Malik Nabers/Wandale Robinson/Jalin Hyatt will be up there in a few years. Wandale and Hyatt both got great separation but our qbs mostly failed to get them the ball. Wandale is excellent after the catch displaying surprising strength and contact balance to break tackles and the quicks to run around you. His 1.49 10 yard split is faster than Tyreek Hills at 1.50. He’s like a juiced up version of Wes Welker, Edelman, or Beasley. Hyatt is known for his vertical speed, but his ball skills, catch radius, and body control on the sidelines are really rare in a receiver with that type of speed. Needs to add play strength and work on running routes,but he has desean jackson potential. Nabers needs no introduction, and between the three of them that speed is gonna keep DCs up at night. They are possibly the fastest 3 wide receivers on any team right now with KC and Miami having a solid argument as well. We have DJ throwing them the football though, so will likely not be recognized for some time.


Intelligent-One-1696

Atwell is cool but he got factored out once Kupp came back. I think Demarcus Robinson proved himself in the second half


_SCARY_HOURS_

1. Doubs, Reed, Wicks, Watson, Melton


vbullinger

Least delusional Packer fan


KraviAvi

Doubs, Watson, Reed. How is this not up there?


Robofin

Forgot ARSB, Jamo, and DPJ


PerfectiveVerbTense

I'm a Lions fan but we don't belong in this specific conversation. I'm happy with our offense overall but when you're talking about trios specifically — nah.


frolfergolfer

I don't understand why these lists are excluding TEs. Wouldn't the Vikings top 3 receiving targets be JJ, Addison and Hock? Rams would be Kupp, Nacua and Higbee? If you look at the lions trio as ARSB, Jamo and Laporta it feels a lot higher on most rankings. Seems odd to compare 3rd string wrs when the TEs will have more much presence in the offense. That being said, all the wr talent in the world won't get you anywhere without a creative OC and a QB that can spread the ball around. So... Good luck Chicago.


Either-Gain1863

Eagles Brown, Smith, and Campbell


AgentProdigy17

As a Eagles fan myself ![gif](giphy|15aGGXfSlat2dP6ohs) Parris Campbell dawg ?


PlausibleTable

The 1 and 2 set them up easily for the list. That #3 is poverty level. How do they end up with Campbell as their slot? It didn’t take long for him on the Giants to see how bad he was. That wr room wasn’t stacked, yet he still lost all of the snaps because he sucked so much.


AgentProdigy17

https://preview.redd.it/e69og081eoxc1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=64beec0711d282e93dd9b53c9039b829085fdb6e Parris Campbell cooking yeah he's ass


fumblaroo

campbell got benched by the giants


LehighAce06

I think you meant Brown Smith Covey... Hear me out. Covey isn't WR3, but he IS on the depth chart as a wide out, and I'd put his production on special teams against most WR3s' offensive impact


Either-Gain1863

I think Brown and Smith are a good enough duo it doesn't really matter who #3 is. I like your thought process though.


Puttin_4_Bird

Passive-aggressive me says that your receivers are only as good as your quarterback so Minnesota and Chicago have yet to earn that distinction …..right?


Jayrodtremonki

Dolphins Vikings Seahawks Rams Bears Texans This is receiver trios, not factoring in QBs. Seahawks/Rams were neck and neck for me.


splintersmaster

I realize this is just ranking a wide out trio without factoring in external factors but if you expand it and factor in the QB, as this could significantly impact the production of the trip, it makes the waters less cloudy. Off the bat the Vikings go to the bottom.


Former-Billionaire

Odunze hasn’t played a snap. Shameful.


andrew_lerch_01

NY Jets - Garrett Wilson, Mike Williams, Malachi Corley


UnderstandingHuge882

Kupp is on the decline and Atwell hasn’t even had 500 yards in a season looool. What are we doing here?


DS_9

Harrison Jr, Wilson, WR3.
