Even going by your rankings I would say its debatable that everyone after Green is interchangeable with Marshall sans Cruz, Bowe, and even Wallace.



And funny, you say only if your last name is Owens can you lead the league in drops and get away with it yet Roddy led the league in that stat just a couple seasons ago.

Roddy unlike Marshall actually produces. There's a difference. Everyone after Green isn't interchangeable, stop it. I'd really love to know why Marshall is better than anyone on the list because his production DEFINITELY isn't an argument. He gets force fed the ball and his production is mediocre. Marshall isn't better than Wallace, at all. Don't even try to make that argument because it'd be stupid. I have yet to see you make an argument for Marshall being a top 10 receiver besides "oh he is top ten just because." By the way, the guy who quoted me first said Marshall is top 6 which yes is laughable in every sense of the word. Dude isn't even close to top 6, top 10 would actually be somewhat debatable.

They can make up for drops. What is a REAL football forum? It's all just a bunch of people with opinions, some just have more elitist assholes that are full of themselves than others.

Interesting, the guy who is 2nd only to Welker in receptions and 5th in receiving yards over the past 5 seasons doesn't produce... He just doesn't have the highest TD numbers.

9 TDs in 2 years. That's pathetic especially if you're trying to make a point that he's a top 10 receiver. Elite receivers usually get that in ONE year. It's not hard to rack up receptions when you're being targeted damn near 200 times a season. He gets force-fed the ball and his best season is 1100 and 10(He was a top 10 receiver that season though)? Are you kidding? That's a top 10 receiver to you? Any above average receiver who gets the amount of targets he gets is putting those numbers up. Add that to the fact that he's almost a lock for 10+ drops a year, it's laughable to even make the claim that he's a top 6 receiver. Again, not even top 10. Welker is 1st in receptions and probably the leader in receiving yards and where is he in the majority of top 10 rankings? Nowhere. Those stats are overrated unless you get damn near 1500 like Andre.

He played on a crappy offense with crappy QBs. Welker had a combined 7 TDs in '08 and '09. Steve Smith had just 9 in '09 and '10 or '10 and '11. Andre Johnson only had 7 combined in '05 and '06. Wayne only had 10 over the past 2 seasons. Bowe has only had 1 season with a lot of TDs. Roddy White only had 13 combined in '07 and '08, and that's not many more than 9. Then, there's a guy like Andre Reed who has had similar stretches multiple times. Isaac Bruce had a number of subpar TD seasons. James Lofton, too. Charlie Joiner, also. Michael Irvin, as well. Raymond Berry had a 2-year stretch where he only had 3 TDs. Holt only had 11 combined in '01 and '02. Art Monk never caught more than 8 TDs in a season. Moss didn't do a lot when he was with the Raiders. There have been a number of great receivers, including a number of HOFers I left out, who have had subpar TD seasons.

It's not hard to rack up receptions when you're being targeted damn near 200 times a season. He gets force-fed the ball and his best season is 1100 and 10(He was a top 10 receiver that season though)?

He gets force-fed the ball because he's ****ing good. Is that hard to understand? Yeah, it's just oh so easy to get 100 receptions and 1,200 yards every year... He only had 3 TDs in 2010, but he missed some games, and was on a team with a terrible offense and a terrible QB. If it's just about TDs, then why is Michael Irvin considered to be one of the best? He's barely in the top 50 in TD receptions.

Those stats are overrated unless you get damn near 1500 like Andre.

You were the one talking out of his ass pretending like he doesn't produce, but all you have are lame excuses. "It only matters if you have these arbitrary numbers I just made up on the spot."

Rookie qbs tend to lean on reliable targets

Sure, but doesn't diminish the start Wayne and Luck have had. If anything I'm more impressed by it, new QB, new system, pretty much no other proven talent on the offense, and Wayne's still putting up ~8/100 a week at 33.

But yeah, if I'm reading it right the question is along the lines of a "you gotta win one game, pick a duo" type thing. And good as Luck is I'm not taking a rookie QB in that situation.
