Not sure how another other than a homer can say Tennessee. JH is coming off a serious injury and CP hasn't played a down at this level... add that to the fact we lost our 3rd best (2nd without Hunter) WR from last year and we don't really compare to the top couple.
I'll take D Rogers for 7 Alex. Piss on USCw. Out of all of the top receivers in the country - I would place D Rogers as the most physical, talented, ready for Sunday play player in the NCAA. Physically he is ready. Mentally he needs another season to grow. With Justin back in the lineup, and the addition of Pig and Patterson, this will only push D Rogers to the next level. With Bray concentrating on moving to the next level, all of our receivers will be dangerous but DaRick is the one that will push the envelope. And don't count out Croom. Kid is big and physical.
He's not better than Sammy Watkins period(in any aspect). Robert Woods is very good out at USCw and a more consistent WR. Woods has been a monster for two years running so don't come trying to compare stats. He would be good down here in the SEC too so don't do the conference stuff. Rogers is good whenever he wants to be. I loved the D.Rogers that played against Fla.(he showed a lot in that game), Vandy(really stepped up and was unstoppable at times), and Cincy. Against LSU he punished the Badger but Claiborne shut him all the way down. The SCAR game he didn't do what star NFL ready player does. Against UK we don't even need to talk about that. The UGA game he showed a lot of toughness. Bama he was winning his matchups but he had Simms at QB. He looked good that game though. Da'Rick is a very good player though and I'm glad he's on our team. But I also take off my orange shades sometimes.

T. Bray will throw for 500 yds the second game of the season, unless we decide 2work more on our running game 2hide our passing attack against FloridaFor the people saying JH won't come back 100% this year that is fine with me. JH at 100% is an All-American without a doubt, at 90% is a first team All-SEC, at 80% second-team All-SEC. Some of you don't realize just how much the game completely changes with both JH and DR on the field together. If you can't double up on either one of them it's going to be a really long day. JH is absolutely unguardable on deep jump ball situations. Even when it's not a jump ball he stops short unexpectedly and turns around and makes it into a jump ball situation, he just has the instinct and insane leaping abilities. He is EXACTLY like Kenny Britt for the Titans and it is very ironic that they both tore ACLs early in the year after showing as much promise as they did last year.
My Prediction: JH-1350 yards
DR- 1100
CP-400
MR-300
All others combined- 800
With Bray finishing with around 4k yards passing for the season.
Oklahoma doesn't have J.Blackmon anymore...Last month "Bleacher Report" had Tennessee ranked 5th as far as wide receiver duo's go. Oklahoma, Clemson, West Virginia and of course USCw were listed above us Nationally.
Looks like it was based off of production last year (at least for the most part), as well as potential for this year. Based off of that, I can see 5th (for now), since Justin was out for most of the year. Mid season polls on this should be much more telling IMO.
According to this though......best WR corps in the SEC. By mid season, hopefully best in the country! :loco:
