major Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 All this talk about Watkins got me thinking about the best receiver I've ever seen in the NFL. I'm going with Randy Moss. I've seen Jerry Rice, Lynn Swann, Drew Pearson, etc... But Randy was the best I've seen. Yours?
Doc Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Rice. Came to play every practice, every down, and every game of his life.
Buffalo716 Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 (edited) Randy Moss What do you scream out when you make a big catch over someone? Riced? No Mossed! Man I can't believe I'm saying Moss over Jerry but those 2 are it Changed my answer! 1) Jerry rice 2) randy moss Edited August 14, 2017 by Buffalo716
Houston's #1 Bills Fan Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 I like the question. I'd probably say Randy Moss, too. I think Rice is a very close second. T. Owens also impressed me, but I think his antics taints it a bit. If Odell wasn't such a headcase, he can/could be something special, too. That pass he caught is still unbelievable! But, speed, cut, pattern, and longevity, Moss and Rice.
Doc Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Mas was definitely the most physically gifted. The Rice was the greatest despite playing in an era where they didn't favor the passing game.
26CornerBlitz Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 The best was easily Jerry Rice. The most talented is another question, but that's Randy Moss.
thebandit27 Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 It's gotta be one of Rice, Moss, or Calvin Johnson. If you told me to pick one of the 3 in their prime for my team, I actually think I'd go with Megatron. Nobody ever had the combination of size, speed, and hands like he did. It was almost unfair when he was on the field
vincec Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 (edited) Randy MossYup. In his only season playing with a top QB he set the all time NFL touchdown record. Imagine if he had played with Montana and Young his entire career like Rice did. I remember John Madden saying once that even if Randy Moss is double covered on a deep route you should still throw it to him because he'll make the play more often than not.

LeGOATski Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Moss just ahead of Larry Fitzgerald. I never really watched Rice play.
Kirby Jackson Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Moss for me but I was young when Rice was in his prime.
Big Turk Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 All this talk about Watkins got me thinking about the best receiver I've ever seen in the NFL. I'm going with Randy Moss. I've seen Jerry Rice, Lynn Swann, Drew Pearson, etc... But Randy was the best I've seen. Yours? Sterling Sharpe. Dude was uncoverable...double teamed, triple teamed, didn't matter, he still got open. He would have put up ridiculous numbers if his career wasn't cut short by injury...he was more talented than his brother, Shannon Sharpe...
HumbleAndHungry Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 There was never a more talented receiver than Moss
Guest K-GunJimKelly12 Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Unless you are younger than 35, it should be Jerry Rice and it's not even close.
26CornerBlitz Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Unless you are younger than 35, it should be Jerry Rice and it's not even close.
Bill_with_it Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Jerry Rice Randy Moss then a couple of miles before Calvin and TO and a few others
Jamie Muellers Ghost Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Jerry Rice once said his favorite receiver was Andre Reed.
