The assistance that a skilled wide receiver can provide for a quarterback in the NFL cannot be emphasized enough. As defensive lines continue to improve, the ball needs to get out quicker and quicker in today’s game and receivers that can create after the catch are becoming a necessity.
In this 2021 NFL Draft, receivers with this skillset can be found in plenty. There are truly some electric playmakers in this class that are going to step onto the field and contribute in a big way on day one. This is great news from a fantasy football perspective as we see an influx of truly talented players enter the league.
Who stands at the top of the class though? Are there any players that could be drafted later on that could make an impact for fantasy football?
