This is Part 1 of 2, covering the first four tiers and the 15 receivers Dwain considers true WR1s.Are Ja'Marr Chase and Puka Nacua really in a class of their own, or has someone closed the gap? Where does Jaxon Smith-Njigba land after his breakout, and does Amon-Ra St. Brown or CeeDee Lamb come off the board first? Then the group Dwain thinks is the most misunderstood range on the board — Justin Jefferson, Malik Nabers, Drake London, Nico Collins, A.J. Brown and Rashee Rice — where the gap between name value and projection gets uncomfortable. And the last group of the day sorts out DeVonta Smith, George Pickens, Chris Olave and Tee Higgins, where you can still get WR1 production without paying WR1 prices.Every player comes with Dwain's per-game projection and an Xfinity best-case ceiling, so you're not just hearing an opinion — you're seeing the range of outcomes that put each guy where he is. Kendall and Pete push back throughout on the ones they'd rank differently. Part 2 goes deeper down the board, so subscribe and come back for the rest.
