So, who ARE the top 5 WRs in the NFL right now?

[ultfrisbee]

Andre Johnson
Randy Moss
Reggie Wayne
Brandon Marshall.
Steve Smith (Panthers)

Honorable Mention: S. Rice/G. Jennings.

Dude, you forgot Kurt Warner!

:uglyhammer:

Jenning was in my top 3 before the season started, but he has taken such a back seat to Driver this season I had to knock him out of my top 5.

Steve Smith hasn't had a great year either, but he's done too much throughout his career, with an average QB, that I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Interesting stat comparison:

Mike Sims Walker

53 Rec
758 Yds
6 TD's

Steve Smith

51 Rec
765 Yds
6 TD's

Both of them basically don't have a QB.

I won't trash Mike Walker. I was one of the people to mention his name in comparison to top 5 WR, ''Megatron,'' by saying he's just as productive, with an average quarterback.

Detroit has the 20th ranked passing game.
Jacksonville has the 18th ranked passing game.

So, if Calvin Johnson is a top 5 WR, why isn't Mike Walker? Maybe if Mike Walker gave himself a cool nickname like - ''Decepticon.'' Or is that already taken?

I'm not gonna say Mike Sims Walker is top 5... probably not top 10 cause he can't change a game like even Calvin Johnson can. I just thought it was interesting.

lol.

Yeah. Detroit's recent string of success since landing Calvin Johnson, has certainly changed the attitude of the fanbase here in Michigan. That's just the type of game changer ''Megatron'' is.

 

[Kuzzy Powers]

1. Larry Fitzgerald
2. Anquan Boldin
3. Tory Holt
4. Isaac Bruce
5. Steve Breaston

Took the words out of my mouth.

Foreal tho..

1. Andre Johnson
2. Reggie Wayne
3. Larry Fitzgerald
4. Steve Smith
5. Randy Moss

God damn it nuk. I'm talking about potential. Maybe I should have said something about that then.

 

[Buzzman]

Please tell me what DET fan calls Calvin, Megatron. Other the Roy Williams, people never call him that.

And nuk how the hell are you going to even bring up Greg jennings name for hon mention and not Calvin? Jennings has played in 2 more games then him this year yet only has 100 more yards and less touchdowns, last year Calvin had more yards catches and TDs then him, and Jennings rookie year was worse then Calvins. Not to mention he had Favre and Rodgers throwing him the ball while at the same time had Driver on the other side. Your a fucking hyprocite.

Calvin Johnson isn't even as good as A. Boldin.

A ton of fans refer to him as ''Megatron,'' announcers refer to him as ''Megatron,'' and Jim Rome, the faggot that he is, also refers to him as ''Megatron.''

I'm done discussing this with you, Buzz. I'm not even sure if Calvin Johnson is better than Nate Burleson, Pierre Garcon or Mike Walker.

You were made to piss people off. God I want to just punch my screen.

It wouldn't be half as funny if it wasn't for people like you biting on this stuff lol

 

[NAHSTE]

Reggie Wayne is nice, reliable WR, but there is no way he'd be as good without Peyton Manning as his QB. Would people really prefer Wayne to superstars like Randy Moss and Larry Fitzgerald?

My top 5...

1) Fitzgerald
2) Randy Moss
3) Calvin Johnson
4) Steve Smith (Panthers)
5) Andre Johnson


I feel these guys make plays on their own. They attack the ball and they are dangerous after the catch.

You honestly think Wayne doesn't attack the ball or is dangerous after the catch? Do you forget all the amazing catches he's made over the years? He's also a machine on bubble screens.

I can buy that he's not as athletic as the others mentioned, maybe not as dynamic in the open field, but he's productive because he's good. He has great hands, great understanding of how to get open, great body control, and is consistent. To answer your question, I had him below Fitz and one spot above Moss.

I will give you credit for not overrating Andre Johnson like I'm seeing a lot in this thread. He's top 5 for sure, but he's not #1 until he can post a few seasons over 10 yards per catch. Seems like he only catches slants when I watch him. Part of that is Schaub's noodle arm and lack of deep ball accuracy, but I still would like to see more big play production out of AJ before I place him above Fitz or Steve Smith.

 

[Tengo Juego]

This thread is redundant.

Fitz and Wayne are the best in the business right now. Forget listing the rest.

 

[davie]

Right now?

Andre Johnson
Reggie Wayne
Wes Welker
Brandon Marshall
Miles Austin

 

[Nukleopatra]

Better route runner than Fiztgerald, that's for sure.

 

[NAHSTE]

Right now?

Andre Johnson
Reggie Wayne
Wes Welker
Brandon Marshall
Miles Austin

Is this just for this season? Either way, it's too early for all that IMO. I love having Miles on my fantasy team, and he looks like a complete WR, but there's a lot of good WRs in the league currently. Even if you just said this year, he might not crack the top 5.

He definitely has a bright future though.
