Number One: Michael Thomas

Michael Thomas was the only true wide receiver for the New Orleans Saints in 2020, and he took advantage of it. Thomas set the NFL on fire with his NFL-record 149 receptions and accomplished that feat while often times being double or triple teamed.

Thomas was undoubtedly the best wide receiver in the NFL in 2019 and will look to carry over that success in 2020.

Thomas was in the running for the NFL’s Most Valuable Player award and managed to take home a Pro Bowl selection, a First-Team All-Pro selection, and a coveted member of the 99 Club on Madden 21.

Thomas also recorded the most yards in the NFL last season. Michael Thomas is a lock to make the New Orleans Saints roster and will be a force to reckoned with in the Bayou for years after signing a massive new deal last offseason.
