I'll give Antonio Brown and Julio Jones as guys I'd potentially put above him.
The majority of the other guys on the list are playing with much better quarterbacks.
AJ Green does not, but Beckham has outperformed him so far this season.

I do not know if I agree with that.
There is no way you can take OBJ over the true tier 1 wideouts yet.
Calvin, DT88, Brown, Julio, and AJ. shite, I would still prefer Jordy, Maclin, and maybe a couple others.
OBJ is in the Josh Gordon situation from last year. He is great no doubt, but a lot of really good receivers would eat in that situation. He is force fed a million targets.
If another superstar receiver was force fed like that from a moderately competent QB, then the results would probably be similar. QB play and situation makes a gigantic difference on the WR. Beckham would not be doing that much in Buffalo or Cleveland.

OBJ is a stud. There is no question about that. And his numbers the last couple of months are about as good as anyone's. But I tend to agree with Vick's that they don't tell the whole story.
The way I think about it is this: You get to pick a 100% fully healthy WR to play on your team for one game, who do you want? To me, the answer is still
1) Calvin
2) Julio, Green, Dez, Demaryius, Gordon
These guys can do it all. And what sets them apart is their height and ability to go up and get a jump ball. I would put OBJ in the next tier of WRs with Brown, Nelson, Sanders, etc. And that is hardly an insult to him.
