No 1st Rounders NFL Draft : CHAT

[Nosferatu]

I would have taken him a long time ago had you not asked me about him and said you wanted him...

 

[Nosferatu]

Go look at Hutson's numbers against the rest of the league. I never understood how people can say Jim Brown is the greatest of all time and not think Hutson is... He played 11 years and lead the league in receptions 8 times, yards 7 times and td's 9 times... No player in the history of the game has been that dominating...

The guy put up crazy stats. In 1942 he had 74 rec. 1,200 yards and 17 TDs in 11 games. That's nuts but the game back in the 30s and 40s were different. Have Hutson play in today's era and I'm not sure he would even be a top WR.

I had him on my list but passed on him. I'm not sure how the voting will go on players from the 30s-40s. He has great stats for playing in that era and only playing 12 games. I wouldn't call him 2nd greatest of all time. I would say Randy Moss is the 2nd greatest WR of all time.

Can't argue with Moss at #2

You can say that about many guys back then if they played in today's game. Guys are bigger and stronger then ever before. I'm taking a guy great in his era that's all not saying if he played in 2015.

Jerry Rice
Randy Moss
Calvin Johnson

The 3 best

Okay, where do you put Jim Brown on the all time list for running backs?

 

[Gold Rush 86]

I have it Rice, Moss, TO but Megatron will pass TO for me and become #3.

Maybe the 3 with the most talent but not the 3 best...

I have Jim Brown #3 but I think he could play in today's NFL and be the bests RB in the NFL. If not the best then #2 to AP. But I just don't see Hutson playing in the 70s, 80s, 90s or 2000s and being the best WR of his era.

 

[Pack 500]

Can't believe the #2 receiver of all time was there in the 12th round when I almost took him in round 1. Don Hutson created the wide receiver position.

I was honestly gonna take him last round but I couldn't find draft info on him

Yes you're right which makes what Hutson did all the more absurd

I think they are the best because none of them can be singled, even by greats. There are other guys that guys like Deion and Night Train could check one on one, because there wasn't a height/speed disparity. Drawing 2 defenders means you are having an effect on every play, not just the ones you catch

Don Hutson hailed as the man that introduced football to the forward pass, Hutson dominated the wide receiver role, like no other man has lorded over any position in all of sports. His post corners, slants, and square-in routes laid the groundwork for wide receivers to impact the game of football, and.this Packer led the NFL in receptions and yardage for seven and eight of his eleven seasons, respectively. Hutson retired as the all-time leader in every significant wide receiver metric and watched his records stand for decades. Few things resonate more with football fans than statistical dominance, after all.

In 1942, Hutson caught 74 balls for 1,211 yards and 17 touchdowns-over 11 games, roughly triple the output of the second-place competitors that season, as Pop Ivy made 27 catches for the Chicago Cardinals and Ray McLean accounted for 571 yards receiving for the Bears.

Oh sorry UK didn't mean to name drop and ruin your chances of acquiring those 2 stud receivers

Nos is a Pack 500 post count away from 20,000 posts

He was way ahead of his time for sure. But like I said I doubt he would be anything more than a Wes Welker in today's NFL.
