The 2023 WR draft is incredibly deep. So far from the video only 5 of the WRs ahead of Nuca are not playing or on practice squads. The rest are contributing. Still wouldn't trade a single one for Naca.

Eh, I'll use this as a form of recap:

Thinking about some of the other Rams receivers stacking up in their draft classes.

1945- Rams draft Crazy Legs and Tom Fears. Hirsch was the first end off the board, led his class in receiving yards. Fears was the 19th end taken, 103rd player overall. He ended up first of the class of '45 in career receptions.

1968 - Harold Jackson went 323rd overall and led his class in catches, yards and TDs. Another Ram receiver that the Hall of Fame has forgotten about.

1983 - Henry Ellard 1st in career catches, yards, and 2nd in TD to Mark Clayton.

1994 and 1999- Bruce and Holt lead their drafts in every category. No surprises there.

2017- Cooper, 7th receiver off the board, also leads his class in catches, yards and TDs.
