nemhoff Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Interesting that the quiet and humble Harrison has more TD's than TO, shut the F up TO and play and maybe someday you will be as good Go Cuse on Sat. Bball that is.

Bball that is. 853306[/snapback] Dont forget Harrison has one of the top 15 QB's of all time, and was also drafted about 70 picks higher than Owens.
Rat-boy Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Dont forget Harrison has one of the top 15 QB's of all time, and was also drafted about 70 picks higher than Owens. 853318[/snapback] Right...because the relative draft point is always a perfect prognositicator of how successful a player ultimately will be in the NFL relative to other players at his position.

From what i hear the Bucs were, disappointed was it, with Big Mike and now he is having a stellar season. Please, learn your facts.

It's probably the easiest position to put up big numbers.
Albany,n.y.

I once heard Charlie Casserly say a player picked in the 6th round has a 10% chance of success.
buzzbait1965 Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Harrison has 211 more catches but only 6 more touchdowns than TO. Not that I like TO but that is equal to about two great years of catches over the same time.
PacificCoastBillsFan Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Harrison has 211 more catches but only 6 more touchdowns than TO. Not that I like TO but that is equal to about two great years of catches over the same time. 853404[/snapback] Dont forget that Harriosn also played with a couple of good backs in the back field! Faulk and James, surely took some of them TD's both running and recieving from him. What good running backs did T.O. have on the teams he has played on? I cannot think of any atm.....at least compariable to faulk or James. But I could be wrong there.

For comparison sake heres hearsts stats with the niners. | 1997 sfo | 13 | 234 1019 4.4 4 | 21 194 9.2 2 | | 1998 sfo | 16 | 310 1570 5.1 7 | 39 535 13.7 2 | | 2001 sfo | 16 | 252 1206 4.8 4 | 41 347 8.5 1 | | 2002 sfo | 16 | 215 972 4.5 8 | 48 317 6.6 1 | | 2003 sfo | 12 | 178 768 4.3 3 | 25 211 8.4 1 |
nemhoff Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 I also think that Joe Horn has been the best producer for draft position on this list. I didn't know that he was so late in the draft.
The Jokeman Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 I also think that Joe Horn has been the best producer for draft position on this list. I didn't know that he was so late in the draft. 853789[/snapback] Not only was he drafted late but he also started his career in the CFL. One has to wonder what the Chiefs brass was thinking as he had a great year in the CFL but caught a grand total of 18 receptions his first three NFL seasons. He then had a "breakout" year in his fourth season when he grabbed 35 balls. He then signed with the Saints and became a star.
MrLocke Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 We almost had Marvin Harrison! 854066[/snapback] Moulds was a terrific consulation prize, though. You must admit.
BoondckCL Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 We almost had Marvin Harrison! 854066[/snapback] Marvin Harrison would have been just as good as Moulds in Buffalo, considering the chumps for quarterbacks he had over the ten years he was here.
Bills Fan888 Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 A great WR makes the QB look better too. Look at Culpepper.
DeLuca1967 Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 A great WR makes the QB look better too. Look at Culpepper. 854166[/snapback] Looking at Culpepper? I would say a great WR and healthy knees make a QB look better.
/dev/null Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 1996 was a bad year for QBs Just ask Jack Kemp
ExiledInIllinois Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 A great WR makes the QB look better too. Look at Culpepper. 854166[/snapback] I agree. Case in point... What James Lofton did for Jim Kelly.
Frez Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 Moulds was a terrific consulation prize, though. You must admit. 854087[/snapback] Moulds had to be "Moulded". Marvin was ready to go. Remember the drops and not very good play from Moulds his first couple of years?
