Day 2 offers your best opportunity to beat the draft at wide receiver. Shawn Siegele updates the WR Prospect Lab Rankings with a look at the second- and third-round receivers who could define your rookie draft.

I explained the methodology for our post-draft model in more detail in Friday’s look at the Round 1 WRs, but that key insight will help you understand the scores that follow.

Two second-round WRs reach the same level as Jerry Jeudy, but they might not be the ones you’d expect.
