Here are my top 50 wide receivers for Week 12, citing Points Per Reception leagues only.

This countdown doesn't lean on a particular stat. It's merely an educated best guess of which pass- catchers will tally the best combination of receptions, receiving yards, touchdowns and targets for the NFL's 12th weekend.

Note: These rankings come after the Raiders knocked off the Chiefs for their first victory of the year (Thursday) -- while also snapping a 16-game losing skid (dating back to last year).

BYES: Pittsburgh, Carolina
