Many wide receivers break out in their second or third season in the NFL. Could this be the year for Rashod Bateman, DeVonta Smith, Jerry Jeudy, Gabriel Davis and more?

Also, some big news (4:15) including Leonard Fournette possibly putting on some pounds and the state of the Ravens backfield ... What does reaching 900 receiving yards as a rookie mean historically (14:00)? Why do we care about that mark? And let's do some WR superlatives for the Year 2 WRs (18:30) and the Year 3 WRs (29:03). Most likely to break out, most likely to be a bust and most likely to go from undrafted to a must-start ... More news and notes (37:50) before we finish with some WR rankings/debates (39:15) and more discussions about Gabriel Davis, Terrace Marshall, Kadarius Toney, Brandon Aiyuk, Chase Claypool and more ...
