2012 NFL Free Agents: Ranking the 3 Best WRs on the Market

While Justin Blackmon and Alshon Jeffery are two supremely-talented receivers teams can acquire in the 2012 NFL draft, this year's free-agent class is absolutely loaded with premier wideouts. 

These are the three best guys on the market. 

DeSean Jackson 

Despite his attitude issues, which will certainly be looked at by possible suitors, Jackson is a dynamic slot receiver with big-play potential. 

Jackson would be an ideal fit in the spread looks that are popping up across the NFL. 

In the eyes of many, he had a "down" year. The former second-round pick reeled in 58 passes for 961 yards with four touchdowns. 

He's yet to sign a big contract as a professional, but a fat payday may be coming this spring. 

Reggie Wayne 

While the Colts could re-sign Wayne, there's a distinct possibility that they could lose the 33-year-old receiver in free agency amid their probable rebuilding efforts.

He has over 11,000 receiving yards in his career, and he caught 75 passes for for 960 yards with four scores in 2011. 

A good possession wideout still with some big-play potential in him, Wayne will be a great addition to any club. 

Robert Meachem

Meachem is a incredibly speedy, young receiver that could be looking team that will feature him more prominently in their offense. 

At 6'2'', the 210-pound burner caught 40 passes for 620 yards with six touchdowns in 2011.

Through four full seasons, the Tennessee product has 23 receiving touchdowns and has averaged 16.1 yards per catch. 

He is entering the prime of his career, and his upside as a deep threat will make him a sought-after free agent wideout.

(*Wes Welker, Vincent Jackson, Marques Colston, Dwayne Bowe and Stevie Johnson are all free agents, rounding out a loaded 2012 class. However, I purposely didn't include these players, because it is unlikely that they reach the open market and should be re-signed by their current teams.)
