Best NFL WR?

[Magnetic Spectrum]

Bengals have the 8th ranked pass defense in the league.

and he has 9 catches for 131 yards against the colts, the 2nd ranked pass defense.

you act like he's overated.

some guy told me he was in the top 3(in the League)......do you concur with that.plus i didn't say anything about indy's d.lions are 31st,and dolphins are 25th,like dude said earlier i guess it evens out.

 

[DNEUM]

Andre Johnson has been a monster no question. But I've had the displeasure of watching several Texans games this year and he has had a ton of drops, many of them potential TD's. But when he's healthy he certainly deserves to be in the conversation.

IMO though, Brandon Marshall is the best WR in the league right now. Dude is an absolute monster.

 

[Magnetic Spectrum]

no doubt marshall is sick as shit,too bad there team is struggling,yea thats what i'm talking about the guy is teetering from being a t.o with those drops.he still mad good

 

[Rush]

This is too hard to pick, each WR would do different in different systems.

I think Greg Jennings, Steve Smith, and Reggie Wayne all need to be seriously considered tho.

I like the Steve Smith this year. Hes really showing what smaller wide receivers can do.

 

[Magnetic Spectrum]

so steve smith isn't the best wr after he catches the ball....hmmmm

bones and Chadman you may now stfu!!!!!!!!!GTFO

 

[Chadman]

no doubt marshall is sick as shit,too bad there team is struggling,yea thats what i'm talking about the guy is teetering from being a t.o with those drops.he still mad good

STFU...you didnt know that untill Dnuem said something about it.

 

[steeljake]

Andre Johnson was hot when that bitch rosenfels was throwing it to him to, the guy is the truth, so stop the hate.

LOl @ magnetic calling someone a homer, dude is bigger homer than even me...

#1 wr in the game RIGHT NOW is that cat AJ from Texans, steve smith is the man no doubt and he is 2nd..

1. Andre Johnson
2. Steve Smith
3. Plaxico Buress
4. Boldin
5. Fitzy
6. Roy Williams
7. Santana Moss
8. Randy Moss
9. Brandon Marshall
10. Hine Ward
(11. Amani Toomer, all he does is make clutch plays)

 

[OnlyOneBeerLeft]

he played the bengals,i don't expect this week in and out

Like ive been saying to you...WATCH TEXANS GAMES...nobody is talking about what he did to the bengals, people who dont know shit bout andre johnson talk about last week...he has carved up every D he's played against...i get u dont think hes top 3, have fun with that and lets drop it lets move on, youve repeated yourself in EVERY one of your posts for like the past week dude, and he is VERY consistent...when his numbers dropped they were all because HE WAS INJURED AND NOT PLAYING

 

[Rush]

so steve smith isn't the best wr after he catches the ball....hmmmm

bones and Chadman you may now stfu!!!!!!!!!GTFO

Can you please chill out man? We all know that Steve Smith is good, and we all know that you are seriously in love with him. It doesn't have to be in every single post. Smith is good but at times you're a complete homer.

I don't like that list much; I think you should base your list off of a combination of stats, play making ability, the team around him and the ability to make his team better. With all that said, I would rank receivers a little differently.

1. Steve Smith
2. Anquan Boldin
3. Andre Johnson
4. Larry Fitz
5. Randy Moss
6. Reggie Wayne
8. Chad "OchoCinco" Johnson
9. Greg Jennings
10. Santanna Moss
11. Plax
12. Lee Evans
13. Hines Ward
14. T.O.
15. Braylon Edwards
16. L. Coles
17. Calvin Johnson
18. Brandon Marshall
19. Derrick Mason
20. T.J. Houshmanzadeh
(Honorable Mention: Dwayne Bowe, Roy Williams and Torry Holt)

If you wanna talk about the total package of route running and YAC combination, then the answer is Reggie Wayne. He is so fundamentally sound. And he isn't outspoken, which is an underlying reason why he's not in this conversation. Like Marvin Harrison used to, Reggie just goes out there and produces. He doesn't have to do an extracurriculars to be noticed by true football fans. While his statistics are just barely worse than those of T.O.'s, his off-field personality is a big enough tradeoff for that .4 YPC he loses to T.O.

 

[ZAN]

That being said, I think Larry Fitzgerald rivals Reggie Wayne and will easily surpass him in years to come.

Take a look at what my fantasy receivers are, and imagine if they would just play to their normal averages.

1. Larry Fitzgerald
2. Chad Johnson
3. Torry Holt

Bench:
1. Rashied Davis (#1 WR on Chicago)
2. Kevin Walter (been starting him lately)
3. Vincent Jackson (been producing, but I'm hesitant to start, becase when I do sub him in, watch Torry Holt explode like we know he will)

So basically my dilemma is this. I got 3 of the best receiving names in the NFL, and I have 3 of the underdog producers at WR in the first half of the season. What do I do? I can win games ALONE off my WRs if Chad, Torry, and Larry do their thing. But I've won a ton of nailbiters because Torry and Chad aren't ripping down TDs like last year.

Don't see how you guys can put Boldin > Fitz

Fitz is their #1 and gets the #1 CB every game. Boldin is great, but he's not better than Fitzgerald.

 

[AJay]

Right now at this point in their career.

1. Randy Moss (when he has a good QB)
2. Steve Smith
3. Andre Johnson
4. Brandon Marshall (will be the best for many years in the near future)

Wow i haven't said but one steve smith line then everyone starts going crazy....first off the post above with the highlights,was for chadman and bones so anyone who comment negatively on should really read the post again.steeljake for you to call me a bigger homer then you is beyond me,i didn't say smith was the number one wr in the league did i????i said Andre Johnson....Btw chadman drops are a stat,don't you think i saw that while looking at andre's

youve repeated yourself in EVERY one of your posts for like the past week dude, and he is VERY consistent

have you lost track of time it's been two days.....maybe you should learn how to tell time before you speak again.

i know I am old, but isnt this what the kids today call jock ridin'?

you must be old thinkin hines ward is a top 10 receiver,how you have Buress ahead of Fitzgerald?????

Can you please chill out man? We all know that Steve Smith is good, and we all know that you are seriously in love with him. It doesn't have to be in every single post. Smith is good but at times you're a complete homer.

post wasn't meant for you so chill out,i didn't even say smith was the top receiver in the league how is that a complete homer????let me know when picking the obvious choice(andre johnson) is being a complete homer

for you to say i have a man crush on smith is being a hypocrite,Rush you got one on Orton,and steel jake you got one on ward so let's not call the kettle black here

What are you guys basing your lists on?

The way I look at it, it's if I had my choice of any WR in the NFL, who would I want on my team?

You can't dock a guy for having bad stats or playing against bad opponents, just in terms of raw skill, who is the best. That doesn't mean a player with good stats is bad, or a player with bad stats is good. But if every player was a free agent, who would you pick up?

1) Steve Smith - The guy is a gamer. He brings it week after week. He'll catch a 60 yard bomb, and run for 80 on a screen. I remember a game last year when Carolina was down by like 20 with very little time left, and Smith caught a routine drag pass, broke about 4 tackles all at once and took it to the house. This is a guy I want on my team.. he just never quits.

2) Andre Johnson - Just a freak. Size, hands, speed. Houston QBs are actually taught to throw him the ball every time it's single coverage. Another player who just isn't satisfied with making the catch. He wants to score every time he gets the ball.

3) Brandon Marshall - He is what I believe is to be the new breed of WRs in the NFL. Cornerbacks are getting more and more athletic, so a great counter is a big, physical guy like Marshall who can jump up and catch the ball, and then just break your tackle.

Honorable mention -- Calvin Johnson (a lot like Andre Johnson), Randy Moss (another big guy with great hands), Hines Ward (insanely underrated for what he does outside of catching the football), and Anquan Boldin (just like Marshall, these guys are the new breed).

 

[Magnetic Spectrum]

the one where he broke like 5 tackles that was against houston.......sick shit....

don't forget andre had a field day against our d

well when i state the obvious i get call a homer.....so that's what i base my list on,when you go to nfl.com and look up leaders who's number 1......nuff said

 

[AJay]

I don't understand how Randy Moss is not #1 on everyone's list. Unless guy's are looking at it as long term then of course his age is concern but I look at this if I could grab one guy right now and put him on my team it is Randy Moss.

You MUST double team this guy or he will just rip you a new one. As long as you have yourself a decent QB. Look what he did when Daunte was in Minnesota, look what he did with Brady. The guy is unstoppable. Didn't he set the td record last year?
