@Swagnificent 6 nfl wide receivers



These 3 guys are proven:

1. Pig Howard (Sr.) - he'll probably be drafted in the 2nd-4th round in 2016
2. Marquez North (Jr.) - already projected as a 1st round pick in 2016 by multiple mock drafts
3. Von Pearson (R. Sr.) - led the team in TDs last year. he'll probably be a 4-7th round pick in 2016.

These 3 are based on potential:

1. Josh Malone (5 star WR in 2014) - reminds me of Robert Meachem
2. Preston Williams (5 star WR in 2015) - Dorial Green-Beckham clone based on his physical attributes
3. Jauan Jennings (4 star QB in 2015) - arguably the most impressive player in fall camp

6 NFL WRs.

Those 6 NFL WRs invaded the Swamp and never came out

But on the topic, Andre Johnson was an elite WR in his prime that never gets talked about today.

Colston a good one

Those two times 1000.
to my SC Gamecock Sidney Rice.

Isaac bruce and torry ****..i think that's his name lol

I thought about those two, mainly ****, although most real fans know . But casuals probably don’t even remember them, especially ****.

**** is STILL lobbying to get in the Hall. And that’s messed up .

For some reason i think people will forget how good Andre Johnson was despite having dogshyt quarterbacks his whole career.

Feel like he’s already becoming forgotten . In this pass happy age, WRs are gonna have to be extra exceptional to be remembered by casuals.

I feel like post people who caught a glimpse of Sterling know he coulda been the GOAT and they keep his name alive . It’s those who weren’t exposed to him ...


my legendary SC Gamecock, Shannon

Amani toomer

He along with Shockey tore it up in 2002. I remember they beat Indy on the road and Collins lsunched a beautiful bomb.on a deep post to Amani. Havent seen it since 02, but i never forgot it.

[Formerly known as...]

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

Colston is a big yes for this thread. Dude was solid for Brees

 

[manyfaces]

Moore with the Lions and Cris Carter with the Vikings, used to take turns running roughshod over Bears DBs in the mid-late 90s.



The best collection of highlights for random NFL players on YouTube hands down.

Jsn Highlights

Good find. The list of qbs throwing him the ball in these highlights We been cursed wit some trash at the QB position

Nah youre overexaggerating. Cats was putting up monster numbers from 94-96. Rice, Carter, Sterling Sharpe, Michael Irvin, Herman Moorw etc Issac Bruce..Early 2000s Moss, TO, Marvin, Bruce, ****, Jimmy Smith, Chad Johnson, Hines Ward, Keyshawn etc. Terry Glenn caught 90 balls as a rookie in 96..Antonio Freeman had a.three yr stretch of dominance. I could go on..the 90's and 2000's were not the 1970's

No. It was harder back then. Primarily cause the defenseless receiver rule didn't exist and going over the middle was dangerous.

Only the very best got 1000 yards back then. Nowadays we see lots of mediocre players racking up stats given the rule changes.

Was it harder? Of course. But ths notion that only the best of the best is bs. Johnnie Morton, Marcus Robinson, Ed Macaffrey, Patrick Jeffers, Wayne Chrebet, Sean Dawkins( may be wrong, going off memory), Qadry Ismail, Derrick Alexander, Mark Carrier, Michael Westbrook, Albert Connell..etc these guys were the very best? Come on now..

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..

2011 he was voted by his fellow WR as the best WR

let me guess you ran to Wikipedia to look up stats
