The Cover 3 crew picks the best pass catchers in college football. First, addressing some of the fan feedback from our QB Draft with more discussion on snubs and players who weren’t picked, then the attention moves on to the next phase of this roster-building process with the WR/TE Draft. The first round starts with a near-unanimous opinion on who should be No. 1 as well as a clear-cut look at the top tier of wide receivers in 2022. The second round is highlighted by the first appearances of a tight end in the draft and the third round includes two high-profile WR transfers hoping to lead their team to the College Football Playoff. Finally, tough decisions for the crew in round four with plenty of good options on the board and a review of some of the best players not drafted.
