to say someone is not a #1 receiver because of size is ridiculous

Antonio Brown 5'10 186
TY Hilton 5'9 178
Kendall Wright 5'10 191
Golden Tate 5'10 202
Harry Douglas 6' 183
Steve Smith 5'9 185
Denarius Moore 6' 190
DJax 5'10 175

some guys who are a little bit bigger
Garcon 6' 210
Torrey Smith 6' 205
Cruz 6' 204
Cecil Shorts 6' 202

Beckham 5'11 198
Cooks 5'10 189

all of those guys are #1 receivers or high #2 and borderline 1s

I think WR1 and WR2 and whatnot are poor descriptors.

There's bigger possession receivers. Sometimes these guys are also real fast but it's rare.

Then there are pure speed guys. Sometimes they have good hands and/or are big bodies.

Then there are guys that are good in space and are shifty.

Of course there's lots of overlap at times, but that's the main 3 types.

Honestly after cutting Moore and with Colston getting older we could use any type. Stills could fill a slot or burner role.

which one of these guys is a #1 WR? Antonio Brown has done it for 1 year.

steve smith was. Not anymore. They were exceptions to the rule

Garcon is. Not the others. He's thick though.
