1. Antwane Wells, South Carolina

— He is far and away the best receiver returning in the SEC in my book, and 1,000 yards and 10 or more scores should happen.

South Carolina Gamecocks wide receiver Antwane Wells Jr. (3) rushes for yards against Notre Dame Fighting Irish cornerback TaRiq Bracy (28) during the first quarter of the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl of an NCAA college football game Friday, Dec. 30, 2022 at TIAA Bank Field in Jacksonville. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish held off the South Carolina Gamecocks 45-38.

2. Dominic Lovett, Georgia

— The Missouri transfer has a chance to be special but will be overshadowed a bit at times by Brock Bowers.

Apr 15, 2023; Athens, GA, USA; Georgia Bulldogs wide receiver Dominic Lovett (6) (6o) runs against defensive back Tykee Smith (23) during the Georgia Spring Game at Sanford Stadium.

3. Malik Nabers, LSU

— LSU is expected to pass more this season, and Nabors is WR1, so expect big numbers.

Nov 26, 2022; College Station, Texas, USA; LSU Tigers wide receiver Malik Nabers (8) in action during the game between the Texas A&M Aggies and the LSU Tigers at Kyle Field.

4. Bru McCoy, Tennessee

— Jalin Hyatt and Cedric Tillman are gone, so McCoy could shoot to No. 1 on this list by season’s end.

5. Tre Harris, Ole Miss

— The Louisiana Tech transfer will shine in a more normal passing offense for Ole Miss than last year.

Sep 1, 2022; Columbia, Missouri, USA; Louisiana Tech Bulldogs wide receiver Tre Harris (3) is unable to make the catch against Missouri Tigers defensive back Kris Abrams-Draine (14) during the first half at Faurot Field at Memorial Stadium.
