Kiwibrown Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 It seems we have an abundance of recievers in the nfl at the moment. Who is currently on a trajectory to make it to canton? Julio is in. Kupp with one more good year will make it off the back of one of the greatest years ever by a wr. Tyreek makes it with a ring and quality play and highlights. Mike Evans with his consistency, stats and ring. Also his connection too brady helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chargers Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 AJ green? Hopkins is a HOF so long as he plays a few more seasons Diggs could be if tallys a few more seasons with Allen. Adams is HOF too so long as isnt injury ridded the next few seasons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakuvious Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Larry Fitzgerald technically hasn't retired yet, if that counts. Julio is a safe bet. Brown would've been a lock if he didn't go cuckoo. Hopkins should make it, though I do think he needs to play well a little longer to get there. If Davante Adams can continue his Green Bay productivity in Vegas for a few years, he'll get there. But he needs a couple more top seasons, I think. Hill is on track, but it's early enough that that could go off the rails. I can never make up my mind on Evans. I historically don't like guys like him in the hall. It's a very Curtis Martin kind of career to me, where he's always been good, he's never had an actual argument for the best or close to it, just kind of a steady and consistent productive guy. But, it's me that isn't fond of guys like that for the hall, he'll almost definitely make it, IMO. I dunno though, I just feel like Mike Evans, career wise, is as close to Brandin Cooks as he is to Julio Jones or Larry Fitzgerald. Anyone else is projecting too far. Kupp is way behind right now. He needs to keep doing work for a good while to catch up. Chase and Jefferson seem like good future candidates, but crazy early, of course. Diggs needs to more or less do with Allen what Hill has done thus far with Mahomes, but that's never a guarantee. His first 5 years were good, but not hall worthy for sure. Michael Thomas could go if he picks up exactly where he left off, but I wouldn't bet on that. That's anyone worth mentioning, off the top of my head.

NYRaider Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Adams with 2/3 more dominant seasons should be a lock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs 27 more TD's to become the 11th in NFL history in the 100+ club, if he reaches that with another All-Pro season or two along the way I think he's in.

TecmoSuperJoe Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I actually think it's going to be harder for receivers to get in without having some hallmark moment/story to tell to go along with a complication of statistical achievements, which is easier more than it used to be to stack due to era. Getting touchdowns is still a difference-maker at least. Julio Jones is probably the only one I'm guessing for-sure will be enshrined if he retired tomorrow. And even then it might take a while due to lack of touchdowns. Maybe Hill and Hopkins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who makes it IMO? - Larry Fitzgerald - Julio Jones - Davante Adams - Jamar Chase - Justin Jefferson Kupp only has one year in top WR conversation, DHop is seemingly fizzling out and should fall onto the Chad Johnson tier. At his peak he also was never on the Megatron, Moss, TO type level that we came to expect from the “best WR in the game” and has been a part of a bit of a generation of decline compared to what came before. It’s projection but Chase and Jefferson seem to have the competitive traits and early production that give them a great chance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No to AJ Green, and that boat has probably already sailed. Never a first team All Pro which will hurt. Keenan Allen seems to be in the same position now, which is a shame, because I loves me some Keenan Allen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingOfNewYork Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Julio is a lock. Evans, Green and Adams are close Kupp, Hill not sure but possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkippyX Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Mike Evans is 59th in receiving yards, 36th in receiving TDs, and 11th in yards per game. He turns 29 in 11 days. He's 25 TDs and 699 yards away from being the 5th WR in NFL history with 100 TDs, 10k yards and a 14+ ypc. (Largent, Moss, Owens, Rice) He would be the 3rd to do 100, 10k and 15+ as long as he stays above 15 (Largent, Moss) He is at 15.3 now and he only has 1 year below 14.0 (that was 13.8) His average season is 1162.6 and 9.4. His average year is pro bowl worthy. Last 4 years: Hill in the Patrick Mahomes years 4854 43 14.2 ypc 9.3 ypt Evans w. Winston, Fitz, Brady 4722 43 15.9 ypc 9.9 ypt He might be the most underrated player in the league. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeotheLion Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Kupps next 3-4 years with Stafford are key for his HOF case. Getting the offensive player of the year, triple crown, and Superbowl MVP on his resume is an incredible start. Now he just needs to stack accolades on it. I think he'll get there but he's also not been the most durable guy in his career. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had 2000 yards last season and still only has 5500 in his career I think his game will age better than some WRs as long as he can stay durable. But still, it's not like he's going to be an all pro 5 years from now. The route he needs to go is basically the Terrell Davis route. Where his peak is so high that you reward that versus needing the bulk production because he's not going to get that.

Soko Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Julio’s the only lock, Hopkins and Adams within reach. I don’t think Evans belongs in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
