Yes, I did look at the diagrams. Apparently much closer than you did.
In diagram #1, the BJ has the widest receiveron the LJ side. (one for widest)
In diagram #2, there are two receivers one right behind the other on the L side. The BJ has the one in front and the L has the one behind. The wording beside the diagram says "BACK JUDGE has the widest receiver on the LINESMAN'S side.", so they must consider the front receiver wider than the back receiver. (To be fair, I will call this a tie)
In diagram #3, the BJ has the widest receiver on the LJ side. (two for widest)
In diagram #4, the BJ has the widest receiver on the L side. (three for widest)
In diagram #5, the BJ has the widest two receivers on the LJ side. (four for widest)
In diagram #6, the BJ has the inside receiver on the LJ side, but the wording by the diagram says "the BACK JUDGE has the widest receiver on the LINE JUDGE'S side." It is pretty obvious they neglected to change the diagram, but still the diagram shows the BJ with the inside receiver. (one for inside)
In diagram #7, the BJ has the widest receiver on the L side then switches to the widest receiver on the LJ side. (five for widest)
In diagram #8, the BJ has the widest receiver on the L side. (six for widest)
In diagram #9, the BJ has the widest receiver on the LJ side. (seven for widest)

In summary, the diagrams show the BJ with the widest receiver seven times and with the inside receiver one time, with one tie. In addition, the wording beside the diagrams give the BJ responsibility for the widest receiver every time.
