    The Ohio State Buckeyes have had a history of producing wide receivers in the NFL. Ohio State has one of the best programs in all of college football.

    Ohio State Buckeyes wide receiver Jeremiah Smith talks to Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. during the pro day for NFL scouts at the Woody Hayes Athletic Cente on March 26, 2025.

    The talent that Brian Hartline recruits for the wide receiver position is crazy. In the past, the Buckeyes have had Marvin Harrison Jr., Chris Olave, Michael Thomas, and others. One player who is next in line to be drafted in the NFL is Jeremiah Smith, but not until the 2027 NFL Draft at the earliest. Where does Ohio State rank amongst the top wide receiver tandems entering the 2025 college football season?

    Jeremiah Smith Is the Reason the Ohio State Buckeyes are Ranked Number 1 By PFF For Wide Receivers Entering 2025

    Ohio State Buckeyes wide receiver Jeremiah Smith (4) receives a punt during spring football practice at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center in Columbus on March 19, 2025.

    Max Chadwick of pro football focus ranked his Top 10 wide receiver cores in college football entering the 2025 college football season. To no surprise, he listed Ohio State as the top receiving core in the entire country. Chadwick said,

    “This is my fourth season ranking the 10 best receiving corps in college football, and the Buckeyes have topped the list twice now. And they’ve never placed outside the top three.

    Jeremiah Smith isn’t just the best receiver in college football; he’s the best player in college football. As just a true freshman, he was the most valuable receiver in the nation, according to PFF WAA. The cover athlete of EA Sports College Football 26 led the Power Four with 15 receiving touchdowns and trailed only Tetairoa McMillan in receiving yards (1,311) in 2024.

    Ohio State also added Purdue transfer Max Klare, my third-ranked returning tight end. His 684 receiving yards in 2024 lead all returning Power Four tight ends this season.

    Many are projecting Carnell Tate to be a first-round pick in 2026, and he’d be the sixth Ohio State receiver in the past five drafts to earn that title. Brandon Inniss, Mylan Graham and Quincy Porter were all top-10 wide receiver recruits coming out of their respective high school classes, as well.”

    Smith during the 2024 season with Ohio State caught 76 passes for 1,315 yards receiving and 15 touchdowns, along with averaging 17.3 yards per catch. He also rushed for 47 yards on six carries and one touchdown, along with averaging 7.8 yards per carry.

    It is not a surprise that Ohio State is ranked number one on pro football focus list of the top 10 wide receiver groups in all of college football. Tate could be another wide receiver for the Buckeyes who steps in the 2025 college football season. He will have to take over the role that Emeka Egbuka had during the 2024 college football season.
