How does Dwayne Bowe rank among the elite WR's?

Sorry, didn't want this getting overlooked in the other thread. Then again, people will probably ignore it anyway - I know some of you will appreciate this.


I keep seeing people say that Dwayne Bowe isn't an elite WR. So I decided to do some research to see how he matches up statistically over his 5 years in the league.

What I found, is that statistically, Bowe is the 10th best WR of the last 5 years.

I found 9 other WR's that either had better yardage totals, better TD numbers or both. He was 10th in yardage, tied for 6th in TD's.

Here's the list. (Yardage/TD's) Bolded players have fewer or same TD's as Bowe.


Larry Fitzgerald - 6480/49

Roddy White - 6422/42

Reggie Wayne - 6234/36

Wes Welker - 6105/31

Calvin Johnson - 5872/49

Andre Johnson - 5703/35

Greg Jennings - 5539/46

Steve Smith - 5353/29

Marques Colston - 5202/40

Dwayne Bowe - 4927/36


Personally, I think that's impressive on its own.

Especially when you consider the only guy on this list who is younger is Megatron. I'd be curious to see how he matches up to the same players during each of their first 5 seasons.

Anyway, when you compare Bowe's number's to the #1 yardage and #1 TD's - he's not nearly as far off as it seems.

It comes down to 19.41 yard a game, and .16 TD's per game.

Factor in that Bowe is missing something the other 9 have - solid QB play.

After looking at this, its hard for me to say Dwayne Bowe is NOT an elite WR, considering how his numbers match up to the "elite" and never having the benefit of decent QB play.

I'm pretty confident in saying that with solid QB play, Bowe would easily make up 19.41 yards and .16 TD's a game.

Like him or not, he's an elite WR - and has shown it over his 5 years in the league.

Dude deserved elite money.

Or, tl;dr - **** him.

Jon Baldwin could be Mike Williams for all we know.

I'm guessing Jones is the next elite deep threat in this league. He is seriously, seriously sick and he's gonna face constant single coverage for at least one more year.
Again, how do you label Baldwin a dud, when it was in fact you who showed us Gif after Gif with the dude running wide open down the middle of the field?


Is that on him?


Or the fight that occured with a guy prone to fighting?

Sit there and tell me he wasn't impressive when he played.

Or, you could tell the truth.

He held his own.

Saying he "killed it" is reaching, considering he's also switching positions this year.

Maybe twice? I didn't GIF him that much. The best thing he did was make 5 or 6 acrobatic catches.

I mean, we are talking about a guy that thinks the 3rd string QB will be starting by Week 6 and winning games.

Likely that Stafford hits him for a td or hell even Orton.

The talent gap between Julio Jones and Jon Baldwin is minuscule.

Holy Jesus, that's on par with a Win/Loss record for WR's.

95th in drop rate is really all that matters.

The only thing he is on pace for is failure at the moment.

It's made alot easier when you have a franchise qb in place. Spinning the wheels til then. I will say, Pioli has brought the roster along from where it was in say 08. But, where the hell else was there to go?


It's why, IMO, he went the wrong way with the qb. If you are gonna try and build a roster then put the qb in, you are behind.
Wrong. The Rams are behind. The Jets went to back to back championship games with a crazy QB like Sanchez. Not Cassel level crap, but not a player I want either. If the Jets drafted smart instead of signing free agents trying to get over the top, they wouldn't see themselves about to let it all slip away. They're old...
