Andre Johnson is the best WR in football, IMO.

[quote][b]JamesMichigan (10/28/2008)[/b][hr]Rank your top 7 WR's[/quote]

On top of my head right now:

1) Steve Smith

2) Andre Johnson

3) Brandon Marshall

4) Randy Moss

5) Terrell Owens - Yes, because he's still got all of his tools and has incredible acceleration and speed. He hasn't lost nothing.

6) Larry Fitzgerald

7) Lee Evans

I think Marshall is a bona-fide stud. Walker? I'll have to see what he can do over the course of a season when healthy to really say.

Steve Smith is back. I would say he's #1 again. The most dynamic WR in all of football.

[quote][b]SouthSideJax (9/26/2008)[/b][hr][quote][b]DM13 (9/26/2008)[/b][hr]Right now, i would say YES. I just watched his last game and he's a monster. The guy was making catches with defenders drapped all over him because he can outjump them or outbody them and after he catches the ball, he's got the athleticism to do great things after the catch. This guy is scary.[/quote]

I wish the Jags had Cutler.. imagine how scary good the Jags would be.[/quote]

I'm a fan of Cutler as well, however, the Jags passing game would still have its issues with Cutler, because he'd still be throwing to Jones, Reggie "bust" Williams, and Giraffe Lewis.

Cutlers receiving weapons at Vanderbilt were probably better.

Jagwired'd — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 14:31:25 GMT

Marshall is the guy who makes Cutler look good.

In my opinion, After what I've seen, Marshall is second to none. Best receiver in the league. He'll be better than T.O., and he'll have more records than Moss if he can stay healthy

Jagwired'd lives in Denver.

He hasn't seen for himself that Walker gets open almost every single time he's on the field.

Cutler is about 30 times better than Garrard. In every aspect of football.

Walker wouldn't even come CLOSE to putting up the numbers Marshall would, even if he had the opportunities. Marshall is the best WR in the league, definitely my favorite WR.[/quote]

Probably not, but it's still nice to know that Mike Walker outplayed Marshall in college.[/quote]

It's sad because Walker won't even be good enough to be a #2.[/quote]

whats with you hating on Walker? yea he outplayed Marshall in college, and yea theres no way he's better right now especially with the knee injury but still nothing says he can't be great in his own respect.

Walker and Marshall are 2 different play styles and on different teams and systems... you can't really compare the 2.

but seriously nothing Walker has done shows that he'll be a bust or a journeyman so why do you have a problem with him?

After last year why wouldn't teams double Marshall? There is no other reciever there to take the pressure off of him. Why do you think Royal got so open? Marshall really is the "Baby T.O."

Right now Shanahan is definitely targeting him more. And he really isn't getting dbl and tripled covered like TO or Moss. As the season goes on, teams are going to clamp down on him.

Moss and TO are still 1a and 1b.[/quote]

Please, What have EITHER of them done? One plays on a team full of stars (T.O.), and the other is being thrown to by none other than Tom Brady.

Marshall is being thrown to by Jay Cutler. Marshall is leaps and bounds better than T.O. right now and Moss is nothing without a decent QB.[/quote]

Please stop watching Football. U have no freakin clue. Oh, and Cutler is a better passer than Romo. Much better. Marshall isn't even seeing alot of dbl team yet. Atleast not as much as TO and Moss. Just wait till the end of the yr.[/quote]

Wasn't there a rock you were hiding under before the Jags got their first win, or was it limestone?

If you seriously SERIOUSLY think Jay Cutler is doing all the magic and not Marshall, who was a YAC beast last year, be my guest. You obviously didn't watch the DEN/JAX game last year. I'd expect a retard to come in with some non-sense like that, though.

[quote][b]JaxJagsForever (9/22/2008)[/b][hr]I hope you are not thinking about trading for Marshall. Yes, he is a good receiver. I do know, however, that almost as soon as he returned from a suspension he got in trouble again - this time for "minor battery." The suspension would have been three games instesad of just one if he had not appealed to the NFL. I don't want anyone, no matter how pretty his statistics are, who is likely to get in legal trouble and lose playing time that way. But if he had no legal problems, I would love to have him.

Who is this Mike Walker guy? One of our draft picks? An undrafted free agent? I did not know there was a man named Mike Walker before I watched him play.[/quote]

What would we give up for Marshall? Honestly, does every opinion on a different player automatically mean someone wants to trade for them?

I just admire the guys play on the field, is all. Around 30000 times better than all of our receiver's best skills combined including Porter.

But even if he does have legal trouble, I still wouldn't mind seeing him here.

Pleeeeeeeease don't try and compare Walker to Marshall. Pleeeease.

Anyway, Marshall is definitely in that Andre Johnson, T.O. league. I could tell last year when we played Denver that he was going to be a stud. He killed us.

Guy has had more than 110 receiving yards in 4 of his last 5 games, and is currently 2nd in receiving yards after only playing TWO games.

Marshall > Walker in pretty much every aspect of football.
