Ehhhhh... it's good. It's not damn good or great.
Might just have to do with preferences, but I really don't see how you can look at a receiver like Bowe who makes the plays that he does with such garbage rapeshit for his QB and pass over him for a TRUE diva (wanna talk character problems in WRs FFS?) who doesn't really do anything more than streak past coverage and does a good job of putting his body in a position to make a good catch.
How many guys are there in the NFL just like DeSean Jackson? Mike Wallace, Torrey Smith, Percy Harvin, Delirium Tremens, to some extent Greg Jennings, Santonio Holmes, Pierre Garcon, Kenny Britt... they're ****ing everywhere.
How many guys are there in the NFL who do what Bowe does in terms of big bodies who have the ability to make the highlight reel catch? Teams draft these kinds of players all the time but rarely do they work as well as the guys who do what DeSean Jackson does. Calvin Johnson, Andre Johnson, Brandon Marshall, Anquan Boldin, I suppose one would put Justin Blackmon into this category if he works out... really aren't that many.
Then again you have the guys that certainly cross both types. Those kinds are even fewer. Larry Fitzgerald and (maybe) Julio Jones are the only ones I can think of at the moment still in the NFL who do that. At one point in the NFL there was no question that Randy Moss was the best in the business because he did it all so goddamn well, but now that's not really the case any more.
