Reranking the 2022 WR class

The 2022 WR class has been one that has been talked about pretty consistently since they got drafted. Several players took a big step forward this year, and a few of them dealt with injuries. I thought it might be interesting to revisit the 2022 draft and take another look at it.

Here is their original draft capital in order and only counting the relevant players (so not Moore, Thornton, Metchie, Burks, Dotson etc.)

#Draft Capital

Drake London 8th overall

Garrett Wilson 10th

Chris Olave 11th

Jameson Williams 12th

Christian Watson 34th

Wandale Robinson 43rd

George Pickens 52nd

Alec Pierce 53rd

Romeo Doubs 132nd

Khalil Shakir 148th

#Best Single Season Finishes

Now, I am going to rank each players best single season total of fantasy points (.5 ppr)

1. George Pickens 2025 - 240 pts (1 game left)

2. Drake London 2024 - 230.8 pts

3. Chris Olave 2025 - 218 pts (1 game left)

4. Garrett Wilson 2024 - 201.4 pts

5. Jameson Williams 2024 - 183.2 pts (currently at 177 pts with 1 game left)

6. Wandale Robinson 2025 - 170.9 pts (1 game left)

7. Romeo Doubs 2023 - 143.9 pts (currently at 136.9 pts with 1 game left)

8. Christian Watson 2022 - 143.6 pts (in 10 games he’s averaged 11.49 pts a game, which would be 195.33 pts in 17 games)

9. Khalil Shakir 2024 - 143.5 pts (currently at 130.4 pts with 1 game left)

10. Alec Pierce 2024 - 142.9 pts (currently at 132.6 pts with 1 game left)

#Personal Rankings

I would rank them in this order:

1. London - A tier

2. Wilson

3. Olave

4. Pickens

5. Williams

6. Robinson

7. Watson (a healthy Watson is at 6)

8. Shakir

9. Pierce

10. Doubs

My rankings reflect what I believe each players talent is while also weighing what their near future situation might look like.

How do you rank these players moving forward? Which players are you looking to buy into this offseason?
