Last year, only four receivers in the SEC made the 1000-yard club. ESPN’s Edward Aschoff gave his top ten candidates to reach that mark this season, and coming in at No. 6 is Tennessee wide receiver Marquez North.
6. Marquez North, Tennessee: In a struggling passing game, North finished the 2013 season with 496 yards. He’s so much better than that, and he’s playing like it this fall. He’s added some needed weight and is understanding his role more and running his routes better
His complete list: 1. Amari Cooper, Alabama, 2. Laquon Treadwell, Ole Miss 3. Jameon Lewis, Mississippi State 4. Sammie Coates, Auburn 5. Malcolm Mitchell, Georgia 6. Marques North, Tennessee 7. Ricky Seals-Jones, Texas A&M 8. D’haquille Williams, Auburn 9. Shaq Roland, South Carolina
