The irony is, if it would have been Marshall and Decker playing with Manning last year and Thomas with the Bears and Sanders with the Jets, every one of you would be looking at this the opposite way.

This is where I say no. And how is that irony?

It is ok to expand your minds people.

Ok? I think DT88 is a top 5 receiver in the game and in the prime of his career. Marshall is going to be 31 yo this season. Still a very good receiver but he's no a game breaker anymore. DT88 > Marshall. Emmanuel Sanders truly showed his ability this past season with speed, route running and incredible hands. Decker is a very good receiver as well but it's still Sanders > Decker. Harvin is never healthy and isn't a great receiver. Great athlete, not a great receiver.

That's a fair argument, but let's not act like Marshall is not still elite. He's still top 10 in the league. See above for the Decker vs Sanders debate. There nearly the same player, with Decker being more versatile because of his significant size advantage. Harvin/Welker is irrelevant, I agree. All of this goes back to my original post in this thread in saying that the Jets have what is prlly one of the best, if not the best WR corps in the game now. This all started because one jackass says, "not even close". Oh really? It's not even close huh? That's a pretty asinine statment because the Jets do in fact possess one of the best WR corps in the game, and Im left defending myself against everyone that is piling on.

Marshall prime >>> DT prime

People forget that Marshall flat out balled up until last year. Dude would have been absolutely filthy with a consistent QB and a straight head, like 150 catches a year filthy
