Here are my top 50 wide receivers for Week 8, 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 eighth weekend.

At the time of this writing, we are expecting neither Calvin Johnson (ankle injury), Reggie Wayne (elbow) nor A.J. Green (toe) to play on Sunday.

BYES: San Francisco, N.Y. Giants
