LSU, Miami top contenders for title of 'Wide Receiver U'

1. Miami
First-round picks last 15 years: 4
Top three rounds: 7
Total drafted: 11

The skinny: In terms of overall numbers, LSU has had more receivers drafted over the last 15 years than Miami and more picked in the top three rounds, but there is no getting around what the Hurricanes' first-round picks have done in the NFL. Reggie Wayne and Andre Johnson need no introduction, and Santana Moss had a productive career as well. The other first-rounder, Phillip Dorsett, will be a rookie this fall.

2. LSU
First-round picks last 15 years: 4
Top three rounds: 10
Total drafted: 14


The skinny: Odell Beckham, Jr., stamps a certain approval on LSU's claim. He's one of the most exciting young players in the NFL. Beckham was a first-round pick last year, as were Dwayne Bowe and Craig Davis in 2007, and Michael Clayton in 2004. Jarvis Landry, a second-rounder in 2014, made 84 catches as a Dolphins rookie. Other LSU pros in the span: Devery Henderson, Josh Reed, Brandon LaFell and Rueben Randle.

Hell Florida even made the list but no sight of the Ags. This is so weird.

6. Florida
First-round picks last 15 years: 1
Top three rounds: 6
Total drafted: 11

The skinny: Percy Harvin has proven to be a first-round-caliber athlete in the NFL, if not something of a locker room headache and an injury-prone one at that. But the most productive long-term was Jabar Gaffney, a second-round pick of the Houston Texans in 2002 who enjoyed his best pro season in his 10th year in the league (68 catches with the Redskins in 2011).

LSU has better WRs.


I know many will scoff at this, and I'm not saying they are better than A&M's receivers as all those guys are damn good. But, LSU's WR's are being very undervalued this year.

-Dural
-Diarse
-Dupre
-Quinn
-DJ Chark
-and now Tyron Johnson

All these guys are extremely talented, have more experience this year and will have a better QB throwing to them. All accounts have Harris as ready to go. And yes, I know you need to see it to believe it. I truly hope everyone sells out to the run on us this year....you.will.get.burned. Bleee dat!

I can't wait to see the beauty of the SEC melt

If we were discussing which team HAD the better receivers, then that article might matter.

As it is, we are discussing which team HAS the better receivers today, which makes your WR U article meaningless.

Dear God you LSU fans really are dumb as bricks....
