If we are being honest about it, DeVonta Smith is going to establish himself as the best WR in the league within the next 3 years.

[PDay8810]

Also I'm not sure I'd take Ceedee or Terry over him going forward.

well this goes without saying

What's the argument for Terry over DeVonta? He just had a better season than Terry has ever had.

DeVonta also had a much better year 2 than CeeDee had in his second year.

LOL....you really aren't asking.
Move on kid.

 

[UK Cowboy]

What? Who the hell is starting over him in New York? Also I certainly wouldn't Terry over him and it's debatable with Ceedee. Clearly the Cowboys offense took a step back with Ceedee assuming the #1 WR role.

I just like pushing your buttons. It's too easy LMAO

I am asking. What's the answer?

I don’t think DeVonta Smith is there yet, but it’s possible for a team to essentially have two number 1 WRs on the same squad. It’s very rare though. One that immediately comes to mind would be Reggie Wayne when he evolved while Marvin Harrison played there.

That's a good point. I wasn't thinking about Peyton and his WRs and you're correct it is a very rare occurrence. If Hurts gets to that type of level I might have to rethink it. Doesn't matter how I explain it to RTK, he's an idiot.

 

[PDay8810]

only the answer in your head is acceptable.

OH!
I think your boy also won year 1 week 8, but I'm still waiting for verification.

Absolutely, it's somewhat rare but it does happen. I would say look no further than the current Bengals with Higgins and Chase. Either guy can be the #1 with Boyd as the defacto #2. It does require the right team chemistry and a QB that is totally in command like Burrow is. Hurts is still learning some of the nuances but he definitely has the leadership and skill to make that very possible. At any rate, the Eagles are in a good place with their WR room right now. They weren't just a couple years ago. Tip'o'the cap to Howie on that front.

What is your argument for it? Are you that childish that you are incapable of formulating and articulating your the reasoning behind your stance?

I still have trauma from Howie’s WR misses. Right now, my WR room should be DK Metcalf (took JJ Arciega Whiteside instead) and Justin Jefferson (took Jalen Reagor instead). Devonta Smith should be Micah Parsons and the pick that was traded for AJ Brown could have been a late 1st round CB or pass rusher. I’ll give Howie credit for fixing his mistakes but it’s fair to note that he created the problem he had to fix.

This doesn’t help your case much for smith over terry after you look at the teams these two have been on

I hate that stuff. You are what you are. Go produce. McLaurin also benefits from the fact that for most years he’s been the only decent option in that offense outside of checking it down to a back so who else is gonna get targets? That shoulda coulda woulda shit goes both ways.

Cardinals come to mind with Fitzgerald and Boldin. That was an awesome pair for having 2 #1 WRs on same team at the same time. Boldin fizzled out in his later years but he was very good at that time.

Terry has been the go to guy in his offense. DeVonta has had to share the targets.

Yes! Another great example. Boldin seemed to regress more quickly than Harrison did but when Fitz first emerged, Boldin was still a top 7-10 WR in the league.

He was 14th in the NFL in targets....had just 9 less than Brown.

This is a bogus argument. There are #1 WR who didn't get that many targets (including the guy from Was).

So what you're saying is that he had more targets than DeVonta and did less with them.

 

[PDay8810]

This is a bogus argument.

You're kidding?
Bogus? Never thought about it this way.

 

[Cincyfan78]

No, Smith was 14th in the NFL and did less with 9 less targets than Brown did - which is why he's not even #1 on his own team, let alone the NFL

Did less with his targets? He had more receptions with less targets.
