re: Which wideout group are you taking?

Not one person on the old list could carry the jock strap of the most recent group. Even Reed. That’s how good those guys are.

You didn’t watch the older guys if you believe this. Martin and Davis were elite receivers who helped Hodson own thr passing record in a run oriented offense. You saw Chase and Jefferson in a pass oriented offense. For example in 2018 in a run oriented offense Jefferson had 875 yards and Chase 313 - not exactly eye popping.
Davis was a stud until he blew out both knees in the pros. Jefferson is not going over the middle like Martin would in the NFL where receivers could be taken out without fear of a “targeting call. Martin was the most physical receiver LSU has had. Landry and Clayton at their very best are close to Martin.
Reed in the Saban run oriented pro offense was the best receiver in the country.
For what they produced in the same style offends, give me the old guys. Todd Kincben and Tony Moss were electrics and would have played A LOT in the 2019 offense if they were on that team.
BTW - Landry is my all time favorite receiver at LSU.
