The SEC has several elite pass catchers returning to the field this fall, and many of them are among the best in the nation.
On Wednesday, SEC Network analyst Greg McElroy named his top-10 wide receivers and top-5 tight ends heading into the 2018 season, and five SEC players made the cut.
As you can see below, Ole Miss star AJ Brown finished No. 2 on the wide receiver list and Kentucky’s C.J. Conrad came in at No. 3 on the tight end list:

All five of those SEC players are very well-deserving of the honor, and it’s no surprise to see Ole Miss’s loaded receiving corps land two players in the top 10.
Other guys will be trying to make names for themselves this fall, though, so it would be interesting to see how the list changes throughout the season.
