Okay, coming back to this. I have a big plumbing hole being dug in my back yard today, so I'm distracted.

I'm fine with a lot of them, but some are way off, as follows:

Buffalo - James Lofton is better than Andre Reed with only minor debate.

Chicago - I have no idea who Harlon Hill is, but I can't think of anyone better. Most people say Willie Gault. It might even be George Halas. No one cares until they get an actual good one.

Cincinnati - I'd lean Isaac Curtis over Chad JOHNSON. I'm open to debate.

Cleveland - Ozzie Newsome isn't even a wide receiver. Come on. If we're talking wide receivers, it would be ... umm ... it would be ... has Cleveland ever had a good wide receiver? I guess Paul Warfield, but it's not like he's known as a Brown.

Green Bay - Listing Donald Driver over Don Hutson is so bad that it destroys their whole graphic. I'm not sure Donald Driver is even second if you consider Sterling Sharpe.

Indianapolis - A good argument can be made for Raymond Berry here, but I can't criticize Marvin Harrison too much.

Las Oakland - Tim Brown is so overrated. The answer here is Cliff Branch. And don't throw that stupid stickied-up Biletnikoff in my face. He's not in the discussion.

New England - Get that shrimpy Edelman joker off the list and put a real wide receiver on. Stanley Morgan is the answer here.

Philadelphia - A.J. Brown? Did a 14 year-old make this list? Look up Mike Quick and change your answer. And one could argue for Desean Jackson or even Harold Carmichael over Brown. That's a lazy answer.

Pittsburgh - No, not Antonio Brown. John Stalworth. But Brown, Swann, and Hines Ward are close enough to quibble about.

Tennessee - Derrick Mason doesn't cut it. Go with one of the Run and Shoot guys. I lean toward Earnest Givins, but I would accept Haywood Jeffires as an answer as well.

Washington - Meh, Art Monk. Longevity award. The real answer is Charley Taylor.


It's kind of shocking to see how many franchises have never had a franchise receiver. Chicago, Cleveland, NY Giants, and New Orleans have embarrassing answers to this question.
