This is the 2026 NFL Combine Stock Report for the wide receivers. Follow me @walterfootball for updates.

Skyler Bell, WR, Connecticut
Skyler Bell didn’t run into the 4.3s, but he was right on the edge with a 4.40. His best work came in the jumping tests, where he measured in a 41-inch vertical and an 11-foot-1 broad jump. He thrived in the on-field drills as well.

Malik Benson, WR, Oregon
Malik Benson ran a terrific 40 time, zooming a 4.37 with a 1.55 10-yard split. More importantly, he did some great work in the on-field drills, particularly in the gauntlet drill.

Germie Bernard, WR, Alabama
Germie Bernard was another receiver who excelled in the gauntlet drill. His 40 time wasn’t great, but a 4.48 for a 6-foot-1, 206-pound receiver isn’t bad either.

Denzel Boston, WR, Washington
Denzel Boston didn’t run the 40, so he needed a good on-field workout. Boston, however, dropped plenty of passes. It could be possible that this performance might drop him in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Zachariah Branch, WR, Georgia
Zachariah Branch had one of the best on-field workouts among the receivers this year. He caught everything thrown to him. On top of that, Branch blazed a 4.35 40-yard dash to go along with a 38-inch vertical.

Chris Brazell, WR, Tennesee
Wide receivers who measure in at 6-foot 4, 198 pounds shouldn’t run a 4.37 40-yard dash, but that’s exactly what he did. I can’t really say anything else about him, but the straight-line speed was incredible.

Deion Burks, WR, Oklahoma
Deion Burks topped the charts in the 40-yard dash among the first group of wide receivers. He raced a 4.30, and he also recorded some great leaping numbers with a 42.5-inch vertical and a 10-11 broa jump.

Jeff Caldwell, WR, Cincinnati
Jeff Caldwell posted similar numbers compared to Deion Burks. He ran a 4.31 with a 1.48 10-yard split. He also had a 42-inch vertical and an 11-2 broad jump. And yet, while Burks is 5-10, 180, and Caldwell is 6-5, 216! Caldwell’s relative athletic score is off the charts.

Caleb Douglas, WR, Texas Tech
Caleb Douglas is a 6-foot-4, 206-pound wide receiver, and yet he was able to run a 4.39 40-yard dash. He also hit 10-foot-6 in the broad jump.

Malachi Fields, WR, Notre Dame
Malachi Fields begn his day well with a 38-inch vertical, but things just got worse after that. Fields had the slowest 40-yard time among the first group of receivers with a 4.61. He then dropped plenty of passes in the on-field drills.

Ted Hurst, WR, Georgia State
Ted Hurst showed some very explosive traits at the combine. He began with an 11-foot-3 result in the broad jump, and then he proceeded to run a 4.42 40-yard dash, which is a very fast number for a 6-foot-4 receiver weighing 206 pounds.

Bryce Lance, WR, North Dakota State
Like Ted Hurst, Bryce Lance is a big receiver (6-3, 204) from a small school who thrived at the combine with some amazing testing numbers. Lance started off with 41.5 inches in the vertical and 11-1 in the broad jump, and then he proceeded to race 4.34 in the 40-yard dash.

Ja’Kobi Lane, WR, USC
Ja’Kobi Lane had lots of uncatchable balls thrown his way in the on-field drills, but he looked great when he had a chance to come down with a reception. Lane’s 40 (4.47) wasn’t very good, but he was excellent in the jumping drills. He leapt 41 inches in the vertical and 10-9 in the broad jump.

J Michael Sturdivant, WR, Florida
J Michael Sturdivant sounds like a fancy lawyer, but he posted some great testing numbers at the combine. He ran a 4.40 in the 40 despite weighing in at 6-3, 207. He also leapt 10-11 in the broad jump and 39 inches in the vertical.

Zavion Thomas, WR, LSU
Let’s discuss the two fastest receivers at the combine. Brenen Thompson was the fastest at 4.26, but he’s built like an eighth-grader at 5-9, 164. Zavion Thomas, on the other hand, is an inch taller and 26 pounds heavier, and he ran a blazing 4.28.

Antonio Williams, WR, Clemson
Antonio Williams had some great on-field drill work, but he began the day with superb testing numbers. He started off with a 39.5-inch vertical and a 10-4 broad jump. He then ran 4.41 in the 40-yard dash.
