In this wide receiver-centric episode of School of Scott, Scott Barrett is joined by Rich Hribar and Theo Gremminger to tackle one of the most critical components of fantasy football in 2025: WR draft strategy. Are we entering a post-spread era? Did RBs truly dominate 2024—and what does that mean for this year’s WR1-WR2 gap?

We debate whether a WR-WR start is still viable, and take a stand on polarizing early-round decisions: Puka vs Nabers vs BTJ vs Nico, Drake London vs Ladd vs AJB, and Tyreek Hill vs Garrett Wilson vs JSN vs MHJ. Is Jameson Williams finally ready to break out? Plus, we spotlight potential Top-15 breakouts going outside the WR40 range—like Emeka Egbuka, Ricky Pearsall, and Jordan Addison.

Whether you're flag-planting CeeDee Lamb or looking for mid-round WR steals, this episode is packed with league-winning insight.
