Dallas has 4th best WR duo in the NFL?

[CWR]

KC: Rice was turning into a pro bowler before injury, Worthy is an up and coming 1st rounder and Kelce is Kelce.

Chicago: Moore, up and coming blue chip WR in Odunze, just drafted a 1st round talent in Burden and a top 15 TE to pair with Kmet.

Balt: Flowers, Bateman, Hopkins, Andrews and Likely.

Like you said I think you missed a lot of the offseason acquisitions and draft picks.

Rice is up and coming and also going through legal/injury issues. Worthy might be good or might not come to fruition. He only stepped up so much last year. Kelce is on his last leg.

Moore was really underwhelming last year and Rome showed promise but 700 yards doesn't make him anything more than potential. Kmet is about as impressive as Ferguson.

Flowers is legit and Andrews is top 10ish because hes so often hurt. The other guys aren't worth mentioning. DHop is washed.

Id take our guys any day of the week.

Pretty close, yeah. I’m hyped for Adams-Nacua but no reason Pickens-Lamb can’t be just as productive

Lamb, Pickens..sounds like a greek families dinner leftovers

6th best?

Lamb, Brown, McLaurin for sure. I am guessing you have Nabers in there. I'd say Devonta Smith and Pickens are pretty darn close if you are thinking Smith is the #5.

Pickens is not even close to Smith. Even CBS which is higher on this duo than just about anyone I have seen does not think that. Here is how you can know that. Lamb and Brown are basically a wash. That means that if Pickens was better than Smith they would be considered a better WR duo. The problem is there is no one who honestly believes that. I would have believed you more if you tried to argue Nabers was not as good but Nabers vs Smith is a more interesting argument.

Can we see how they play first?

I’d say top 12ish right now.

Philly
Chi
Min
Det
Cin
KC
Balt
SF

All come to mind as better if we’re including TEs.

You ate out of your mind or a troll. Please tell me how kc, or Baltimore is better?

Per CBS, Dallas now has the 4th best starting combo at WR in the entire NFL!

Agree?

Link to CBS article

No! Perhaps on paper it's true but this WR corps has not played together.

What are the rankings on that link?

I can't see it, be because my internet isn't working right now and I can't get online.

Brian Thomas Jr + Travis Hunter (IF he concentrated on WR), would easily be far higher, and the best up and coming duo in the league.

They're hindered by their team... but you put them on KC or the Bills or WASH... and they would slay.

Brian Thomas is a killer, and soon will be thought of as a Top 3 wr, or better, in the league. Gotta separate the QB and offense when u judge these guys.

Higgins and Chase also had 100 more targets on the season. Philly averaged 37 rushing attempts per game last season…

It was also basically tush push for tds all season when a few yards out from the goaline, they didn’t get a lot of end zone opportunities that they would have on other teams

Brown and smith had a total of 186 targets TOTAL between the two of them, for contrast Ceedee had 152 by himself.

And so you speak to one of our little problems last season. Ceedee overload. Hence Lamb doesn’t finish the season before going on IR.

Bs. Higgins and Chase have 27 TDs to Brown and Smiths 15. What a joke.

That’s only because Philadelphia is a running team. Anything inside the 10 is likely a rushing TD, shouldn’t penalize the duo for things outside of their control.

All Pro selections last 3 seasons:
Smith+Brown - 3
Chase+Higgins - 1

Total Catches last 3 season:
Smith+Brown - 505
Chase+Higgins - 503

1000 yard seasons last 3 years:
Smith+Brown - 5
Chase+Higgins - 4

Total Receiving Yards last 3 years:
Smith+Brown - 7126
Chase+Higgins - 6566

Percentage of Team’s Passing Attack Last 3 Years:
Smith+Brown - 59.6%
Chase+Higgins - 49.4%

It’s really only the total TDs they have because they play on a team that’s typically behind and abandons the run (particularly in 2024). Everything else is Brown+Smith
