Calvin Johnson is quite a bit faster than larry fitzgerald, calvin ran a 4.35 forty yard dash and larry fitzgerald ran a 4.63, i know some say its overated but that much of a difference is obvious whos faster. even without that its easy to tell calvin is faster thus why hes much faster in madden

Are any of those WRs feared more when they get the ball in space ?

I wouldn't put too much stock into what they're saying about dropped passes. First, stats can tell many different stories depending on which ones you use and which ones you don't. If Desean's drop percentage is the league's worst, it's probably is due to the fact that he caught under 50 balls, and many of the passes thrown to him are long ( lower percentage type ) passes.

Another reason I wouldn't put too much stock into dropped passes is that Reggie Wayne ( who's is on that list) as well as one of the greatest TEs in NFL history in Tony Gonzales were among the leaders in drops last season. Bringing up Desean's drop percentage, when one of the players on the list ( that no one has disputed) is among the league leaders in drops last season, is merely a lame attempt to discredit Djax.

If you don't think that defenses roll coverage to Desean, then you're right, I don't need to say anything else.

Where does Vince Jackson stand? is he not an elite wr? I would have him graded better than a couple guys on that list I think. Can't say for sure though haven't seen too many chargr games.

Vincent Jackson only played five games last season due to a contract dispute.

You don't notice that he's talking about how Jordan Shipley owned the Super Bowl when his team was one of the worst in the NFL last year and came nowhere near the playoffs?

Just because he's been near the top doesn't negate the fact that he has only gotten better since coming in as a rookie and had a breakout season last year with practically no other weapons on the receiving core other than Tony Moeaki.

He's put up decent numbers, but his numbers for his career thus far are just slightly better than Braylon Edwards. The only WR in the NFL that has dropped a higher percentage of his passes since Bowe has been in the league was Braylon Edwards. Bowe is the 2nd worst in the league, and he isn't even a guy like DeSean Jackson that has the excuse that all his drops are on 40 yard passes. Bowe just has bad hands, plain and simple. Last year, put up 1100 yards and 15 TDs. Lloyd put up 1400 yards and 11 TDs. Both had great seasons, but neither are anywhere near being top 5 WRs in the NFL yet. They simply have too much to prove still.
