    Default Who Has the Best Receiving Corps in the*NFL?

    https://theringer.com/who-has-the-be...674#.g61iw0evw

    3. Denver Broncos: Demaryius Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, Cody Latimer, Bennie Fowler III, Jordan Taylor, Jordan*Norwood
    Trevor Siemian hasn’t exactly lit the world on fire this season, but it’s not for lack of pass-catching talent. The 6-foot-3, 229-pound Thomas (55 catches, 678 yards, five touchdowns) is a big, physical jump ball and red zone specialist, while the 5-foot-11, 180-pound Sanders (54 catches, 668 yards, three touchdowns) offers speed and versatility all over the field. Norwood (19 catches, 203 yards, and a touchdown) is a solid no. 3 option.
    *The statements above are my opinions, unless they are links, because then they are links, which wouldn't make them my opinions, and I suppose stats aren't necessarily opinion, but they are certainly presented to support an opinion. Proceed accordingly.

    I'll take Denver's over Oakland, even with the two Jordan's wasting space.

    If only we had (or used) the TE. I love Emmanuel Sanders, but our best receiving corps were DT, Decker, Welker, and JT, followed closely by Rod, Eddie, and Shannon.

    We might have the best 1-2 punch, but Oakland has much better depth.

    I also think NE should be at the top of the list. Gronk might be a TE but he's the most dangerous receiving threat in the NFL.

    I actually think the Lions have a pretty good group of WR's and when he can stay healthy Ebron's a dang good TE.

    I didn't notice if this included TE's but **** the P*triots, they've habitually populated their receiving corps with slow, short, white stiffs that no one else wants. Agreed on Mongo, he is the only P*triot I'd want in Denver.

    I do like Malcolm Mitchell, their rookie WR, pisses me off he got drafted by NE.

    I wonder what Latimer could have been. Ridiculous athletic talent. Where did it go south? Was he in it for the payday? Oh well.

    Yeah, I was so high on him, but he has been a disaster

    Don't forget that it took awhile for us to see anything out of DT too. As long as he's on the team there is a chance of him panning out (though it's more likely we'll see Jordan Taylor at this point)

    Dt was injured though, and the neck beard preferred Decker, but I still take your point. That said, latimer has had three years. Time to cut and run

    I think DT had more production in his first game than Latimer has had in 3 years. Ok, maybe not, but I bet it's close. Latimer's 3 year career totals are about 10 catches, 100 yards.

    yea but two of those years were with a QB that didn't like him and wouldn't utilize him. We'll see, his contract is coming up soon. I don't remember the specifics, but Manning had beef with him and much preferred taylor once we got him.

    Making froze him out because he never learned the playbook.

    I expected this year to be his coming out party.

    It seems he still hasn't learned the playbook
