I agree he is a brilliant recieverm but to place him in the top 3 is a bit of a reach.

I'd go:

Larry Fitzgerald
Andre Johnson
Greg Jennings
Calvin Johnson
Randy Moss
Roddy White

I agree though, it's all relative and subjective. Fitz and Andre Johnson are the clear top two IMO. Then it is a bit more debatable. I rate Jennings as three but i can understand why people say lower.

What put's Jennings above Moss in your eyes?

More yards
Younger
Bigger average yards per catch/game
Bigger deep threat target
More first down catches


He gets less respect than if he played for a big market team.

I meant atrribute wise, I disagree that he is a bigger deep threat target as well, Moss can outmuscle/outjump any DB in the league, but as you say it can all be about opinion.

IMO Moss is slightly overrated, he's always needed good players around him in order to produce, look at his time in Oakland for example, whereas Andre & Calvin Johnson have both played for teams who don't make the playoffs and are the best players for both teams on the Offensive side of the ball.

Definitely - you'd put your money on him to go up there and get the ball when it is thrown to him but there are far better route runners in the NFL who make Moss look one-dimensional.

I dont think hes ever pretended to be anything other than a deep threat guy or someone who runs good routes, im still surprised when he catches a ball anything less than 10 yards im always expecting it to be Wes Welker

What about when Moss was in Minnesota ? He had Daunte Culpepper and Cris Carter.

Jennings seems like a good personality and a very good teamate from the interviews i've seen. Very good hands and is a very good route runner. I'd say he's pretty good everywhere.

He has more catches of 20 yards and 40 yards or more than Moss. Jennings isn't somebody who will go up and get it, he can do it but it isn't his absolute strength. He is extremely good on the cut and i'd say can beat most corners at a break and outrun most.

The Bears sign LB Tinoisamoa,he's a good signing but i'd rather they were spending the money on a WR.
