Stats last year:

Mike Wallace - 60 catches, 1257 yards, 10 TD's, 26 catches of 20 yards or more (most in NFL), 10 catches of 40 yards or more (most in NFL)

Desean Jackson - 47 catches, 1056 yards, 6 TD's, 21 catches of 20 yards or more, 8 catches of 40 yards or more

Who is really the bigger deep threat?

I think Calvin has the better skill set personally and that Jennings is just in the absolute perfect system to get the most out of his skillset, but obviously that's impossible to really prove.

Yup. That's thing the pisses me off about Jennings the most.

Yeah, I'd give the Nod to Calvin as well, just saying.. He's not far and ahead the better WR.

Steve Smith is nowhere near as talented or dominant as Hakeem Nicks. Nevermind the fact that Smith will likely be out for the first 6 weeks of the regular season on the PUP list.

Agreed on Nicks over Bowe.

This is exactly what I've been talking about this whole thread. I'll repeat: Wallace has already lived up to DJax's hype, while being a more complete receiver on a less talented team. He already is what everyone says DJax can be, and he's going into his 3rd year now, with nowhere to go but up.

The numbers he put up last year, while NOT being in the top-20 for targets, are almost historical (when looked at in that context).

I wouldn't say a less talented team at all, but agree with everything else. Desean Jackson is more agile IMO, makes people miss more often, as witnessed why he is a punt returner and Mike Wallace is not. However, Mike learning to go over the middle and some comeback routes.

Brain fart, I meant more talented offense. Good catch!

Wasn't desean out with a concussion for awhile last season?

Regardless both are dynamic players I just believe desean has a bit more flash.

So flash makes up for a lack of catches, yards, and TD's??
