About this episode

The episode discusses wide receiver rankings and tiers, along with the hottest NFL quarterback rankings from 9 to 12.

The Tier 1 (09:31) wide receivers are obvious if you can trust Steve-O, and the first-rounders in Tier 2 (14:29) should be high-floor producers. Where it gets wild is in Tier 3 (18:26), with the sexy, unreliable alphas. Buyer beware. Then Tier 4 (28:25) is a slop of 16 (maybe 18) guys. Craig thinks Luther Burden III is him. Heifetz wants nothing to do with Burden or Zay Flowers or Chris Olave. Tiers 5 and 6 (59:48) become guys just naming guys (complimentary). Ricky Pearsall. Jayden Reed. Parker Washington. Matthew Golden. Xavier Worthy. Denzel Boston. Khalil Shakir. AD Mitchell. Travis Hunter. Then, finally, we get to nos. 9-12 in The Seven’s Hottest NFL QB Rankings (01:01:22). Another boyish cutie. A shocking salt-and-pepper DILF at no. 11. First-team All-Aura breaks the top 10, plus the fourth and final former no. 1 pick in the pack. Mmm, mmm, mmmm. The thank-yous run into another Millennial Banger from Craig. Culture peaked in 2010. (00:00) Intro (09:31) Tier 1: True WR1 potential (14:29) Tier 2: First-round-caliber guys (18:26) Tier 3: Sexy and unreliable alphas (28:25) Tier 4: 16-18 guys we don’t know what to do with (59:48) Tiers 5 and 6: Requires faith (01:01:22) Hottest…
