Best Receiver in the NFL this year?

DirtyHawgs · 08-09-2006, 12:38 PM

Who's going to be the top receiver this year..

Chad Johnson?
Tory Holt?
Randy Moss?

whos the #1 receiver. I don't think there is a clear cut #1. what you guys think?

TO if he can keep his head together.

Steve Smith now has Keyshawn on the other side.

DirtyHawgs · 08-09-2006, 02:27 PM

What you think of all these hamstring injuries in pre-season..? Smith? TO? Moss got hampered by this type of injury all year last year..

I personally like Steve Smith. That guy is exciting. Only way they could contain him last year was to double and triple team him. This year with the addition of Keyshawn he should have more opportunities and should capitalize on it.

Real life or fantasy?

When healthy, nobody can match what Moss can do. Problem is, he hasn't made it through a season healthy now in a couple years.

Owens has the talent, but his attitude gets in the way. IMO, he will get your more statistics than he will wins.

Smith is an outstanding playmaker. Problem is, he is 5'9 playing like he is 6'3 and his body can't take it. I see him as a guy who burns bright, but fades fast. He isn't long for the league at this rate.

For my money, I am going with Holt. Doesn't have the injury or attitude concerns of the other guys, just consistent production and clutch play.

Moss has the biggest Upside as displayed in his big years in the past, but as you said his problem is staying healthy..

Owens is the biggest talent of the crew, but new offense, bad attitude and weaker QB will hurt his overall #'s. He should still have a solid year, just not the beset

Smith if he can stay healthy should have the best year. But staying healthy is the key for him.

Holt brings consistency, and you know exactly what your going to get. I think he'll be top 3 as he seems to be most year, but not the best receiver this year...

If palmer can stay healthy all year, look for Chad Johnson to be the other Top 3 WR.

Don't worry Jackson Mahoney I'll handle this softball.....

Chad Jackson!

Bourque7799 · 08-09-2006, 03:57 PM

Steve. Smith. The man is unbelievably fast and is only improving. If TO stays healthy he will be a dominate force as expected

inSTAALed · 08-09-2006, 04:42 PM

It's a tie between Steve Smith and Chad Johnson unless injuries intervene.

Barrelhead · 08-09-2006, 09:33 PM

Not only is Chad Johnson the best he's by far the most entertaining.

phillymaster · 08-09-2006, 09:52 PM

yo guys

reggie brown on philly will catch 70-80-with up to 12 touchdowns with an above 15 yard average---this will be his breakout year

Macster · 08-09-2006, 10:39 PM

Not to be a homer, but Chad Johnson.

I'd have to say

1. Johnson
2. TO if he doesn't do anything stupid
3. Steve Smith
4. Holt
5. Plaxico Burress
6. Harrison

I would at least put Smith above Burress, if not Holt.

GiantFisch · 08-09-2006, 10:43 PM

Did something happen to Marvin Harrison for people to forget about him????

To be honest i haven't seen a lot of Smith, and a ton of Burress. Chalk it up to bias, but is Steve Smith really that good?

If so, i have to watch him more!
