Best Lions Wide Receivers

The best wide receiver in Lions history is Calvin Johnson (2010s), rated 96 out of 100 — just ahead of Amon-Ra St. Brown and Herman Moore. Below, all 12 ranked, spanning 1970s–2020s.

These are all-era rankings with no cutoff year: a Lions wide receiver from the 1970s is rated on the same scale as one playing today, which is why this list looks different from rankings that only go back to the modern era. The ratings are the same ones that power 17-0, the free game where you draft a roster of all-time greats and sim whether it goes a perfect 17-0 season.
