Who is the best ACC wide receiver entering spring practice?


In 2014 the ACC had a number of receivers that were among the best in the country at their respective slots, and were in some cases the focal points of their team’s respective offenses.

Last season Florida State had Rashad Greene, Louisville had DeVante Parker, Duke had Jamison Crowder, Miami had Phillip Dorsett and Georgia Tech had DeAndre Smelter. Those receivers were all big time targets and had elite level production, but are now gone with all of them good bets to have some role in the NFL.

There are still a myriad high level athletes competing for those top spots on their respective teams and looking to take the All-ACC team slots those players filled the previous year.

Some teams are in better positions than others with these roles as North Carolina, Clemson, Pittsburgh and of course Florida State all seem like good bets to not skip a beat with their casts. While others, Georgia Tech, Louisville, Miami, seem unlikely to be able to replace the production that they were given in 2014.

With that said the overall group of ACC wide receivers that will put on jerseys this year seem like good bets to carry the torch of elite level production forward.

Here is how I see the top of the position in the conference shaping up. After reading through the list, please let me know in the comments section where I was right and what rankings you’d have different.
