Technically yes, but I think he was only using a sample size of Terry and all receivers taken before him. With that qualifier he is correct, but I don't know why you'd draw that arbitrary line. A guy performing even better in a specific category who was drafted even further behind should be noted as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you're an editor for the WFT and you want to tell a story without having to credit your division rivals for getting an even bigger steal?

Just clicked on that guy's twitter page; yup, that will do it. Such a weird angle too. There is a legitimate argument for Terry being the best of a stacked WR class (I'd have Brown over him, but I could see the argument). Why not just say where he ranks out of the entire class? His stats are just as impressive against the entire class and it is a broader sample. The only reason you'd phrase it that way is to purposely exclude Slayton, who is the only receiver worth mentioning who was taken after Terry, which is kinda funny.

SkippyX Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Yeah, its super simple to go to Pro Football Reference and sort by TD receptions for the 2019 draft class. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2019/draft.htm DK Metcalf has 9 TDs and I'm pretty sure that pick 64 is ahead of pick 76 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done this before. 😅 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearerofnews Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 21 hours ago, Wyld Stallyns said: Jonathan Taylor rushed for 101 yards and Mo Alie-Cox had 111 receiving yards yesterday for the Colts. The last time the Colts had a player with 100+ rushing yards and another player with 100+ receiving yards in the same game was in 2010 (Joseph Addai and Pierre Garçon) That's the HOF'er Rivers immediate impact on offenses. You're welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
