After watching A. Johnson tear up another NFL team tonight, how can anyone say D. Bryant is better?

[Enfuego]

Calvin
Green
Dez
Fitz
Julio
Thomas

Andre Johnson is not in your top 6? Wow.

Top ten for sure...2 years ago would have made my top 5...check out his TD production last year...

I did, he had 4 last year. How many did C. Johnson have last year? 5.

 

[Willie99]

love AJ, when healthy he's sensational. Problem is he ain't healthy far too often

 

[Willie99]

no love for Amendola?

Chop thinks K Stills is the best WR in the NFL

Calvin is light years ahead of AJ....

 

[TopShelf11]

There's some sick stat where Calvin was tackled like 8 or 9 times inside the opponents 5 yard line.

I don't think light years but point is made that the best WR in football only had 5 TDs last year. Doesn't mean he's not the best and the best are not judged on scoring TDs.

There isn't a better predictor of long-term WR greatness/success than TDs really. Pretty much strongest correlation between top TD scorers and best WRs over any other metric/stat I can think of.

If you ask NFL players and GM's if they had a choice between AJ and Calvin, who would they choose?

Ask the same for fantasy football players across the world, who would they choose?

6 times at the 1...

Calvin vs 2Pat on sunday should be good

Of course they choose Calvin and I didn't say anyone wouldn't but to say Calvin is light years ahead of his competition is not accurate in my humble opinion.

So because Calvin J scored just 5 TDs last year what? He's still the best in the game.

Guy gets stopped inside the 5 a bunch of times and dude then punches it in for the TD. A td for the team is a td.

 

[Well-Seasoned]

I'll still take Julio Jones #1......Great combination of speed and power plus young..............AJ gets hurt too much...If somebody wants to make an argument that Calvin is the best then I can't really debate it as he is really good.

 

[VIEJODINOSAUR]

I personally think AJ Green from the Bengals is the best in the NFL.....but I can see the argument for guys who disagree...

What I said was correct. Not sure what about it you didn't get...I said "long-term" i.e not 1 season

You just said "the best are not judged on scoring TDs" For the most part the WRs that have scored the most TDs are also the best WRs

Calvin/AJgreen/Marshall are clearly top 3 I think. That is that 1st tier by themselves right now followed by DThomas/AJ/Dez/FitzG after that you get a dropoff to the next tier like RWayne/Cruz/Welker


Edelman probably be #1 after this week

 

[ImGamblin'Again!]

testing...

 

[FairWarning]

no love for Amendola?

Unfortunately he can't stay healthy.

Fitz is top-3 with a QB.

Agree with you Pats. Just pointing out that VD used AJ's lack of TDs last year as a measurement as to how good of a WR he is when the best WR in the game had only one more TD than AJ last year.
