Football Is Larry Fitzgerald the best WR in the NFL? - Page 8

Hootie · 01-11-2009, 03:25 PM

They are posing this question on CBS pregame...

I say most definitely.

Larry Fitzgerald has such amazing body control...I wouldn't take anyone over Fitz...he plays the game how it should be played, and he's a freak.

Fitz
Andre Johnson
Bolden

Randy Moss would be in the discussion at an earlier age, but dude is on the back side of the production hill. Moss in his prime was unstoppable, but that was then...

Fitz has the entire package.

With that knowledge, do the Chiefs really NEED a speed receiver to complement Bowe? Could Crabtree and Bowe be the next Boldin/Fitz?

THIS!!!!

I would cream in my jeans if we had Crabtree/Bowe as our tandem.

Yep, the guy is a freak. Man amongst boys.

Nein, he's amazing at what matters.

He catches the ****ing football. ALWAYS. Single or double covered. Zone or man. He comes down with the ball...

The scary thing is that he's gotten better after the catch. Last year, he was at 3.0 yards after the catch. He worked on it this offseason and is up to 4.8. He is the model NFL player.

It's not so much his skill, but his desire. The guy fights for every yard. I would definitely want him on my team.

Larry Fitzgerald > Limas Sweed

Ok, yes I know this is obvious, but seriously, how about those hands (or lack thereof)?

DrRyan · 01-19-2009, 11:42 AM

1a. Larry Fitzgerald
1b. Andre Johnson
3. Steve Smith
4. Calvin Johnson(could be pushing LF and Johnson for that top spot very soon)
5. Randy Moss

The only problem is Bowe/Crabtree would be a little redundant. Two primarily possession receivers. The Chiefs won't go WR in the first round, but if they did, I would prefer a Bowe/Maclin combo. Maclin's ability to stretch the field would IMO do more for Bowe than Crabtree would.

Not gonna happen, but fun to think about. Way too many problems to be going Matt Millen in the first round.

Redundancy is actually the better way to go. Either having two speed guys or two over the middle guys actually creates more mismatches. Most teams don't have 2 corners who can really stay with burners or 2 that can match up physically with the big receivers.

Fitz IS great. Now, where are the "bring Warner to KC" ****tards hiding out? Time to administer some righteous "You Suck".
