Here are some stats to mull over comparing the 2024 production of all the #1 and #2 WRs in the division. With Nabers arrival and Pickens and Deebo now entering the discussion, figured it could be interesting.
Note:
- It's only 2024 stats
- Not much context is provided, I'm too lazy
- Stats are taken from here: https://www.playerprofiler.com/
- I'm going with the assumption that all the stats from that site are pretty accurate
- I ignored the fantasy football stuff
- I also ignored the total yards and total TDs--preferred stats that dealt with how the stats were accumulated, how the players were used, and how effective the players were within their scheme. More or less lol...
Observations:
- Explosive plays pretty much explains the entire "Rank The #1 WRs In The NFC East" thread, and is probably the main/only thing fans think about when evaluating WRs
- QB play definitely effected each player's final stats
- Dallas fans better pray Pickens is on his best behavior, because the dude could be a beast if so
- Mclaurin is indeed a contested catch monster
- Only 3 of the 8 WRs listed seem to have been used consistently as deep threats last year
- Deebo needs to bounce back, but even if he doesn't he's a noticeable upgrade to every WR that Washington had last year besides Mclaurin
- If the Giants get good QB play, this division could be an offensive dogfight all season long
