As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't matter if you're Albert Wilson or the Queen of England. If you're a good WR when you're on the team, it will show. If you're not, then welp. And if you're not there long enough to make a very big dent, then how valuable were you to that franchise?

That last question isn't rhetorical, by the way. I'm genuinely asking. What are measures that can set you apart from other players?
I'm big on single-season stats as opposed to career stats. I'd rather have a guy who's dominant for three seasons than a guy who's above average for eight. So maybe if you looked at "best season in a team's uniform", that could provide some input. Pro bowls as well.

It's possible that a team could string together a bunch of guys who have three or four good seasons and then let them go, and as a result none of them will have stellar career stats. It's not a likely scenario, but it's possible.

That said, I don't think the Buccaneer or the Chiefs fall into that category.

It is pretty safe to say that each of those guys I listed have had several good years in the NFL. I am just as sure that the fans would have been ecstatic if we would have signed any of those guys during the prime of their career. Those guys are/were all pretty good.
