RANKING AFC WEST WIDE RECEIVERS

NUMBER 1 – ANTONIO BROWN

Antonio Brown hasn’t played a game as a member of the AFC West yet, but his previous experience with the Steelers is enough for him to sit at number one on these rankings. Brown has been the best receiver in the league for the last half decade and that’s no easy feat.

Brown long tormented Chiefs fans while in Pittsburgh, torching their defense over the years and now he’ll face them twice a year. That’s not exactly a soothing thought for Chiefs Kingdom.

Last year saw Brown haul in 104 receptions for 1,297 yards and a whopping 15 touchdowns. He did all of this while also competing for targets with JuJu Smith-Schuster, who is now the WR1 for the Steelers with Brown out of town.

The only reason I considered not having Antonio Brown as the best receiver in the AFC West is because he’ll be 31 years old when the 2019 season kicks off. He had one of his best seasons last year at age 30, but NFL players drop off fast when it comes to production.

Will Brown hold onto the top receiver in the AFC West title this season?
