Dez came as the 15th best player overall in the NFL Top 100 2015 Poll.

For WRs I think that means they have Dez ranked as the #3 WR behind Megatron and Antonio Brown (who haven't been part of the announced players 12 through 100 so he must be Top 11).

They have him ahead of Jordy Nelson (ranked as 18th best player in the NFL) and Demaryius Thomas (ranked as 20th best player in the NFL).

Personally I'd put Dez ahead of Megatron based on last year's performance. I can't quibble a ton about Antonio Brown (although I think Dez is better) because his production is other-worldly.

I am bit surprised the Jordy Nelson was ranked as one of the top 20 players in the NFL. I'd put Demaryius Thomas ahead of him by a hair.

Down year or Not, nobody is ******* with Megatron, or even within a Mile of him.

Sorry, nobody in the league can do what he does, period.

Only person who can walk all over him in his prime is Moss.

Megatron is definitely a monster when it comes to getting the ball in the air, but so is Dez.

The dimension that Dez brings to the table is his ability in the open field to create after the catch. Megatron is just not that kind of athlete. Dez has punt returner skills in the open field in a 6-2 220 body.

I don't really care much about that much about the rankings, the players themselves have some very weird criteria. they'll consistently overrate players even down years as top 10, 20 players based on reputation even in really down years. Seems like a popularity contest. And what was up with that segment?? They don't mention anything about leading the nfl in touchdown receptions, but end off the video with Brainiac criticizing Dez for stretching out (football move) for the goal line????

And watching the actual videos themselves, is it a new thing to blare awful trap/EDM/dubstep music now for more than half the video? That 'throw up the X' song was whack as ****. Same with the 'action speak louda than words' rap for julio jones' video. So corny it was cringeworthy.

Yeah, I love to see people make that argument. "He shouldn't have reached for the goal line."

Well, yeah, he should have. That's what makes it a catch -- the football move.

Not to mention a bunch of nobodies were the people speaking on the video about him. Clutts, Ike Taylor, that Colts LB (Laurinaitis I think) and freaking Reggie Dunn! Reggie Dunn!
