Ranking 2022 NFL divisions by WRs: AFC West, NFC West rule their conferences with these playmakers

Assessing which divisions possess the most collective WR talent

Over the past several seasons, the NFL has become more and more of a passing league. Increasingly, the most dependable way to be a good team is to have the best pass offense possible. That will likely become even more true as the years go by and teams lean more and more into the data that tells them passing is king.  Team Receivers Texans Brandin Cooks, Nico Collins, John Metchie III, Chris Conley Colts Michael Pittman, Alec Pierce, Parris Campbell, Ashton Dulin Jaguars Marvin Jones, Christian Kirk, Zay Jones, Laviska Shenault Jr. Titans Robert Woods, Treylon Burks, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Kyle Phillips Team Receivers Bears Darnell Mooney, Byron Pringle, Equanimeous St. Brown, Velus Jones Jr. Lions Amon-Ra St. Brown, D.J.

Obviously, quarterbacks are the greatest driver of passing success. You can make an argument that any number of other factors come next, whether it's the offensive coordinator putting the players in position to succeed, the offensive line making sure the quarterback has enough time to throw, or the pass-catchers who are tasked with finding creases in the opposing defense. Today, we're here to talk about that last group, as we rank the eight NFL divisions by their wide receiver talent.
