Who is our best wide receiver? - Dallas Cowboys Forum

Awakened · 08-28-2005

OK. I was wrong about our wide receivers. We do have an elite wide receiver - and his name is Patrick Crayton. In my opinion, people who are excited about Crayton are not over-reacting. I think Crayton is our best wide receiver. I think he will lead the team in receiving yardage this year - and within the next two or three years he will be considered among the best in the league (Top 20).

I don't gush often about players. So why am I gushing about Crayton? Because he consistently makes very good plays - and he seems very confident and sure of himself. He's only been a wide receiver for 2 years, yet he looks like he's been doing it a long time. He can only get better. I really like the guy.

No Quincy Morgan in your options?

Just Kidding.

I think without a doubt, when healthy...Terry Glenn is the best WR on the team.

Man is the quickest, fastest, arguably the smoothest route runner of the three and If he does not have the best hands then he has the next best hands.

When healthy since he has become a cowboy he has made a believer out of me.

Terry Glenn and then Crayton. But not for long.

I tried to pump people up on Crayton all off-season, and said he was the real deal.

But for now Terry Glenn is still the best WR on this team.

He just does not get enough credit.

Hey, now I am one of the biggest Crayton homers on the board, but with that said he is not the best WR on this team right now.

He may very well become the best but right now Glenn is the best WR on the team. He has speed, hands and experiance. Glenns only real knock is he cant stay healthy.

**big dog cowboy** · 08-28-2005

Glenn. Our offense went south when he went down last year.

lane · 08-28-2005

patrick crayton looks to have what it takes to me.

Cbz40 · 08-28-2005

I agree...Glenn. Give Crayton a few more games. He has a chance to become a star in this league. What a pair of Hands.

LeonDixson · 08-28-2005

I voted for Glenn, but I really like Crayton as well. He is coming on like gangbusters.

Anguillidae · 08-28-2005

1. Glenn. Has the speed and the hands. Hope he stays healthy.
2. Keyshawn. Will be solid when the season starts. He dosen't like pre-season.
3. Crayton. He may become a more important part of the offense than Keyshawn some time this year or next.

Key is really dissapointing me...

Hopefully crayton will pickup the slack.

NovaCowboy · 08-28-2005

Antonio Bry....doh! Glenn if he could stay on the field is clearly the best on the team.

LaTunaNostra · 08-28-2005

Key is neither a practice nor a preseason demon. And a lot of what he excells at is grunt work that make everyone else look better. When the season opens, he'll be there, and I don't think it will take Bledsoe long to appreciate it. I voted for Terry on talent alone, but for what he does for an offense, it"s KJ.

I think Crayton has enormous potential, may end up a more complete receiver than Terry or Key ever were, but the test will be when he sees regular season coverages, gets game planned by DCs, and when he's on the field w/o Terry in the regular season.

I do think Patrick is already the receiver AB is, and more.

And why would you think that?

I was waiting to read your post on this thread, and you did not disappoint. I voted for Glenn, because IMO, when healthy, he can give more big plays than Johnson.
