Ranking every WR room by tiers: Eagles in top grouping (Tier 2: - Superstar headliner:  Detroit Lions.  The Lions have Amon-Ra St. Brown, who -- in my opinion -- is still one of the more underrated receivers in the league, despite finishing inside the top five in catches, yards and receiving touchdowns last season. He's a key outlet for Jared Goff in the passing attack, and it wouldn't be surprising if he led the league in receptions in 2024. Beyond St. Brown, Jameson Williams is the X-factor for this unit. If he can finally live up to his first-round potential and stay on the field, they could have one of the best receiver tandems in the NFL.):  https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ranking-every-wr-room-in-the-nfl-by-tiers-eagles-bengals-star-duos-headline-patriots-broncos-at-the-bottom/

Highest-graded wide receivers by route type: Amon-Ra St. Brown, Puka Nacua and more (SLANT: AMON-RA ST. BROWN, DETROIT LIONS (97.3) - St. Brown’s three touchdown receptions on slants in 2023 trailed only Jakobi Meyers. He averaged 5.78 yards per route run, turning 15 targets into 11 receptions for 185 yards.  HITCH: AMON-RA ST. BROWN, DETROIT LIONS (97.1) - St. Brown was the league’s highest-graded receiver on hitch routes, too, recording 24 receptions for 240 yards and a touchdown.):  https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-highest-graded-wide-receivers-route-type-amon-ra-st-brown-puka-nacua-2023
