Receivers

Juju Smith-Schuster (USC)

This kid has that home run ability that make so many guys valuable at the next level. He’s a Desean Jackson, Brandin Cooks, Sammy Watkins kind of guy, who has been the beneficiary of Cody Kessler’s senior year. He leads the conference in receiving yards with more than 125 yards a game. He’s also added seven touchdowns and is one of the most dangerous players after the catch.

Kenny Lawler (California)

Jared Goff has a good one in Kenny Lawler, or maybe Kenny Lawler has a good one in Jared Goff. He has a big body and has been Goff’s favorite weapon this season. Leading the conference with eight touchdowns, he has 465 yards, which isn’t great, but it’s partially due to him being the main priority for defenses.

Gabe Marks (Washington State)

When you throw the ball 50+ times a game, that’s going to make receivers happy. And Gabe Marks is a happy receiver. He’s the only other receiver in the conference averaging over 100 yards a game, with 620 on the year and 6 touchdowns. When you look at the amount of receptions to his total yards, there’s a bigger difference than most, as he averages the most yardage per catch by almost 2 yards, with 8.2 yards a reception. So when you need a first down, look to Gabe Marks.
