| 0:00.0 | More wide receiver talk as we get ready for an exciting position in the NFL draft right now with Emery Hunt. |
| 0:09.7 | I'm Adam Azer. |
| 0:11.0 | Join us every week with Emery Hunt here on fantasy football today in five as he breaks down draft prospects. |
| 0:16.4 | And follow him on Twitter at F ball game plan. |
| 0:19.4 | At F ball game plan. |
| 0:23.5 | Yesterday you gave us your number one split end, Drake London, your number one flanker, Christian Watson, your number one slot receiver |
| 0:27.7 | Jameson Williams, who's recovering from a torn ACL, your number one inside receiver, Garrett |
| 0:32.4 | Wilson. Who's your number one overall wide receiver? Again, a great question. |
| 0:40.1 | I would go with James and Williams by half a point. |

| 1:11.6 | Oh, there's a significant gap. You tell about four to five point gap. And also it ties into what we're |
| 1:16.3 | seeing right now in the NFL. Unless the running back comes out like a Sequin Barkley or maybe a Nick |
| 1:22.3 | Chub or someone that has that legit home run hitting capability, that explosive speed, |
| 1:45.7 | it's going to be hard to put them over a receiver that's going to see the football a lot that has a chance to really wrink up that cash register pretty quickly out there on the football field in the NFL. All right. So James is definitely someone we're going to be very excited about when he gets drafted in the first round.
