No Cris Carter? More TDs than most on that list and his yardage and yards per game are on par or better than most as well.

Fitz needs to be in front of Andre Johnson. He's 2 years younger with extremely similar receptions, yards and YPR, but 25 more TD's.

Coin flip between Owens and Moss, but I would go ahead and rank Owens higher than Randy Moss.

I think Megatron and Fitz belong over Newsome and Irvin. I even question Lofton on it.

i'd put Fitz at 12th on the list, but the last three years have seriously destroyed what would have been a sure-fire, no doubt about it first ballot HOF entry.

Carter not even on the list makes it void. In fact, he has a major case for #2 all time.

I don't think Tony Gonzalez or Ozzie Newsome should be on a WR list. They got different types of coverage as TEs.

And, no Carter on the list is just a personal dislike of him by whoever made these things.

Because Rugby got the title wrong - if you go to the link it is the 16 best pass catchers.

Yep.

:oops:

I tried to correct it, but it was too late, and my failure became my shame.

Tony Gonzalez at #2 is a travesty.

Hutson should be number one by a mile. Compare his stats to his contemporaries. He changed the game.
