Best WRs in the NFCE? (1-4)

[Hawkeye0202]

1...Lamb.......play all 3 WRS at a high level
2...Nabers.....QB play is the only thing stopping him from joining the elites
3...MClaurin...most underrated "elite" WR in the league
4...Brown....inconsistent, the best WR in the league one Sunday, half a___ing and moaning the next.

Nah, Brown is #2. Dare I say it but at his best he's better than Lamb. That's an occasional thing though which is why he'd be at 2. McLauren is underrated, yes but still a notch below the top dogs.

My only knock on lamb is he does get a case of the drops every now and then,

But he is still WR1 in the east to me

At his best........that's the problem (lol). How often....certainly not every Sunday.

Physicality wise Brown is better than Ceedee, Nabers full potential is not known , mclaurin is good but flashes and quiet other times.

If we can get a Wr2 big , fast and physical with decent hands , our WR group will be better than rest ot NFC east.

Yeah I was gonna say you can argue Brown is as good or better than Lamb. To put him 4 th is nasty. Now I’d rather have the three others over him for personal reasons but he’s a dog and he a great receiver.

I think his inconsistencies come from QB play not his skill though.

Too soon?

1. CeeDee ... enough said
2. Brown ... always a threat
3. McLaurin ... potential to better
4. Nabers ... need to see more at this point

Credit him with still wanting the ball constantly after he got the “bag”. And he’s a willing and effective blocker. Understanding with Barkley and Hurts he gets lots of opportunities to do so.

Penalty, that celebration has been outlawed.


Where is @MarcusRock to make the call?

 

[StarOfGlory]

CD and AJ are #1 and #2 in some order. Looking at the stat breakdown and advanced stats for 2024 from Pro Football Reference, Brown has a better catch %, more yards per game, more yards per target, and more yards per reception (a rather impressive 4.5 yards more) despite being targeted less in game by a QB that a lot of posters here still think is average at best. This is probably because he is so good at contested catches.

1. CeeDee Lamb
2. A.J. Brown
3. Malik Nabers
4. Terry McLaurin

There is not any huge gap between one and four. The rest of the NFC should hope Jayden Daniels and McLaurin do not sync much more over time. They have only one season together under their belt. That combo has not been exploited fully yet. Their potential is unrealized now but could become deadly.

The thing is Brown also plays with DeVonta Smith, who could be argued for this list as well. As long as both Brown & Smith are healthy there will be some weeks that one gets more attention than the other.

 

[OmerV]

I think his inconsistencies come from QB play not his skill though.

Hurts has been fine, but with Saquan they are going to run the ball more than other teams. Something most posting in this thread also seem to overlook is the Eagles have DeVonta Smith, who is very near the level of some list. Accordingly there naturally will be some weeks Smith gets more focus from the Eagles offense than Brown

Hello Tetairoa McMillan

 

[Risen Star]

Nabers is the most talented. McLaurin is last on this list.

7 drops on 152 targets is not a drop problem. Nabors had more drops on less targets. Drops are about the pct of drops not raw number of drops

Hello Tetairoa McMillan

He’s my dream pick at 12 but there are 3-4 WR in this draft that are worth 12th pick. Some are similar to lamb is why I favor TM but any of those others can help this team. The one I least like that many do is golden. I don’t get caught up in 40 times myself

Nabers could very well be number 2. He did a lot of damage basically being the only weapon on offense and pretty meh QB play.

BTW, the Eagles offense is bananas. Brown and Smith at WR. Goedert at TE. Barkley is one if not the best RB in the NFL and that offensive line is the best in the NFL.
