Mike Harmon· Sep 2, 2026
Harmon unveiled his preseason wide receiver rankings for the upcoming fantasy season, counting down his top 20 (plus deeper names like Davante Adams at 24 and Terry McLaurin at 27). He also called Ladd McConkey a possible 100-catch receiver, tabbed Jaylen Waddle in Denver as a big-time value, said DeVonta Smith is Philadelphia's No. 1 receiver, and expects Jacoby Brissett to be on another team by midseason.
“I think McConkie's a guy that could be a hundred catch receiver.”
