So, we all agree that Chase is way underrated. But if we are looking at the overall quality of the top 3 receivers, according to Madden, the only teams that have a 90+and 2 80+s (which I believe we can agree would be what the Bengals realistically have) are us, Arizona and Buffalo. Tampa Bay also has a 90+, a high 80 and a high 70, so you could throw them in as well.

LAR and LV both have an elite receiver, a really good receiver and a weak 3rd receiver. If we were only looking at top 2 receivers, I think these two would have us beat. But since we're looking at the entire corp and both of their corps fall off a cliff after the top 2, I think we can comfortably say that the Bengals are, overall, better than both of them.

I personally think Green is way overrated for Arizona. I'm not sure how they consider him an 80 at this stage of his career, so I'm crossing them out. Buffalo has two exact 80s, which is not inspiring so they're out. That leaves us and Tampa. I would personally take Chase and Higgins over Evans and Godwin, but I could see an argument either way. Boyd I find to be clearly better than Gage so at worst it's a wash but I think Cincinnati comes out on top as the #1 receiver corp in the NFL.
