Who has the best receivers in the NFL?

:laugh2: I think you've got the "troll formula" down to a science.



I don't disagree. 'Sup Lane.

Yes we rock. That is all.

Catch Rate is, simply, the percentage of the time a receiver catches a ball for which he is the intended target. Note that this metric doesn't measure how catchable a ball was; a pass that hits the receiver in the foot is still intended for him. With that being said, remember that everyone gets bad passes. Tom Brady skips a ball or two a game; Aaron Brooks, four or five. Catch rate should be taken with a grain of salt, but it's still a useful metric in determining a receiver's ability to go and get the ball

Seems silly. Why not just go ahead and base the rating on catchable passes and eliminate the bad throws?

ALso what is catchable for one WR is not necessarily that way for another.
Some WRs have great hands and should catch balls others cannot. And vice versa. What is catchable for TO is not what is catchable for Harrison. Harrison has better hands. So the bar should be higher for him.

I don't think the bar should be any higher, but Harrison's numbers should reflect his better hands if he catches more "catchable" balls (i.e. fewer drops).

think he actually READ the metric formula?

or just saw 'best', knew it wasn't his team, and was hell bent on saying it wasn't ours?

T.O. is taller, can jump higher, and i would say faster than harrison. thats why some throws might be catchable for owens and not harrison.

But TO has worse hands so it probably still evens out mostly- I still think Harrison has an edge.

 

[Green28]

Harrison > TO
Wayne > Glenn

Johnson > TO
Housh > Glenn
Henry > Crayton

 

[Vintage]

Harrison > TO
Wayne > Glenn

Johnson > TO
Housh > Glenn
Henry > Crayton

God, if only you could read.

TE's were also included.

Harrison > TO
Wayne > Glenn

Johnson > TO
Housh > Glenn
Henry > Crayton

Please don't have any kids.

 

[AbeBeta]

Harrison is a great reciever, I think T.O. is better though.
​

Wow. When was the last time you saw Harrison drop a sure game winning TD?

 

[Hostile]

I still say the Cardinals have the WR corps I'd like to have. At least until Calvin Johnson proves his worth, then it might be the Lions.

Gotta think about the Colts and Bengals too.

Throw in TEs and I do put Dallas at lest in the top 3.

 

[adamknite]

Harrison > TO
Wayne > Glenn

Johnson > TO
Housh > Glenn
Henry > Crayton

Somebody needs to work on their reading skills.

 

[Rampage]

idk but harrison seems to get the dropsies every year in the playoffs

 

[gazmc_06]

T.O. > Harrison
Wayne > Glenn
Crayton > Gonzales
Witten > Clarke

T.O. > Johnson
T.J. > Glenn
Crayton > Henry (suspended for the first 8 games though)
Witten > don't even know who the Bengals have at TE :laugh2:

I think we have the best recieving core in the NFL and the best individual reciever in T.O.

That I don't agree with.

1. Dallas (1)
After six weeks of Drew Bledsoe, the Cowboys' receivers were struggling. While Terry Glenn had a very respectable 16.8 percent DVOA, Terrell Owens was at a woeful -7.7 percent, and Patrick Crayton (the likely third or fourth target on most plays) had only been thrown 12 passes in six weeks because Bledsoe couldn't stay upright long enough to find him. Even Jason Witten's 17.0 percent DVOA had him at a mediocre 13th amongst tight ends. By the end of the year, Glenn's DVOA had improved to 20.4 percent, while Owens got all the way up to 12.2 percent. Crayton got 36 more attempts in the final 10 games and was the best third receiver in football. Witten's DVOA went up to 19.1 percent, seventh amongst all tight ends. The point: Having an even competent quarterback can be the difference between a group of receivers struggling, or being amongst the league's elite. While Owens and Glenn are getting up there in age, both have yet to show an appreciable level of decline in their metrics, and Owens will likely see an improved catch rate after healing his finger injury. Crayton remains one of the unsung threats in the league, and Witten, the best tight end in a division full of them. A team's top four receivers will see 65-70 percent of all the throws made by a quarterback over the course of a season; one through four, no one's better than the Cowboys.

idk the colts have excellent wr
