Summary
Ryan Heath of Fantasy Points joins Adam Aizer and Heath Cummings to discuss his recent article on finding the next breakout wide receiver. The guys start the conversation talking offensive efficiency in different sets (3:58) including the differences between 2 and 3 WR/TE personnel. They then jump into the case for Ladd McConkey as the next Jaxon Smith-Njigba (7:55). Shifting the conversation to other receivers that could break out, can Josh Downs (21:28) and Emeka Egbuka (22:50) take the next step? We also take a deep dive into the Bears offense and how Colston Loveland (26:00), Caleb Williams (31:40), and Luther Burden (35:00) all play a role. Finishing up with taking a look at some impact receivers from around the league, the guys talk Zay Flowers (48:00), Mike Evans (52:16), & more. Some News and Notes (1:00:40) wraps up the show!
