NFL WR’s who were great in their prime, that are afterthoughts in 2020.

Is that Joe Horn? Was breh even drafted?I think I saw

him on a list of "Best undrafted players ever" like 10

years ago

Yep cell phone Joe and he was drafted in the 5th round

 

[General Mills]

For a 7th round pick

Saw a lot of TJ as a Steelers stan. He was a beast and a great compliment to Ochocinco. A Jordan/Pippen tandem. TJ was physical as hell and played angry

 

[Scott Larock]

I gotta say Brandon marshall sticks out the most, he really had the size, speed, and strength but he didn't really play with productive QB's most of the time.

I always felt Ocho was a bit too slim, good route runner and fast just could take the hits really.

I thin the Saints really had good tall receivers Marcus Colson was great to me.

Also Roddy White was very good but Julio came in and he was quickly forgotten.

Donald Driver, Greg Jennings, good tall receivers who could take a beating and move the ball.

Sucks when you think about how quickly these dudes are forgotten.

 

[YouMadd?]

nikka you gonna name a receiver or what

Peerless Price

 

[JerseyFinest!]

Hakeem Nicks injuries ruined him. He played great in our 2011 sb run too

Came in the thread to post this.

Hakeem was arguably the best receiver in the League for a 2-3yr stretch

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Ashley Lelie

Lol. Ashley was a very good long ball receiver but never a dominant one. He made some ridiculous catches tho.

 

[EffedUp]

My top 3 already mentioned would be:
Sterling Sharpe
Herman Moore
Jimmy Smith

They definitely fit the bill of this thread.

 

[b. woods]

Marques Colston
Greg Jennings
Dwayne Bowe
Eddie Royal
Brandon Marshall
Rod Smith

Victor Cruz
Miles Austin
Braylon Edwards
Any WR on the Packers post 2006
Marques Colston
Terry Glenn

Damn shame he never got his respect due

Was ALWAYS outshined by WRs who played for large-market draw marquee teams and WRs who had marquee draw media-darlings passing to them

Mike is overcharging for what they did to him. @smitty22

 

[Ghpstface]

Jimmy Smith definitely

Andre Johnson for some reason is quickly being forgotten about.. Dude was a monster

My favorite Andre Johnson moment was when he beat up courtland Finnegan. That was like seeing the annoying kid at your school finally getting his ass beat

 

[Controversy]

Keenan McCardell

 

[Ghpstface]

Brandon Marshall having the record for most catches in a game and Dez catching more TDs than any other Cowboy ensures they won't ever really be forgotten about. Any time someone approaches those records their names will get brought up

No he wasn't

Not even arguably

 

[BucciMane]

Not even arguably

.

Midway contender for worst coliseum post of 2020.


Hakeem Nicks arguably the best WR for a 2-3 year period?.


Wasn't even the best WR on his own team..

 

[BaggerofTea]

I dont think its really fair to compare eras like this
