Jarvis Landry will be better than ODB in 2015

Jarvis Landry was a great WR at LSU, that is just how it is. Odell Beckham is a great, if not Elite, WR in the NFL after one season so people forget that JL is great, he is just playing behind one of the best and has fallen under the radar.
How did he not make the ROY short list? If yards, ok, so he didn't have 1,000 yards, but he did have Rec's, plenty of them.
84 Rec, 758 yds, 5 TDs
Forget about what ODB did for a second and JL finished with more REC's in his rookie season than any other HOF WR in NFL History.
Notable HOF's Rookie Season REC's
Chris Carter - 5 (1987)
Fred Biletnikoff - 24 (1965)
Tom Fears - 51 (1948)
Michael Irvin - 32 (1988)
Steve Largent - 54 (1976)
Art Monk - 58 (1980)
Andre Reed - 48 (1985)
Jerry Rice - 49 (1985)
My point is that Jarvis Landry is probably going to be a monster in 2015 simply because he has a good QB, a deep WR threat opposite him (ODB at LSU), and solid TE's at Miami. I think Jarvis Landry is going to have a better second year than ODB. I could be wrong but I think ODB will be elite, he just will not have as good a second year as JL will.
It will be fun to watch these two guys compete for top spot every season. So glad they rocked purple and gold! Recruiting isn't just about what the coach says, it's about what these kids see on National TV when they watch MNF and see another LSU player being talked about.

Gonna be tough, OBJ looked like a top 5 receiver in the league his rookie season and can only get better.

Based on what, exactly?

Nah

Jarvis is a great possession guy. He can have a Anquan Boldin type career. OBJ is a playmaker and will have more highlight reel plays.

Sorry, no.

Gonna be tough with all those 2 yard slants. Not really. That's what he's best suited for. He may lead the league in receptions, OBJ in yards.
I agree he'll be a studd.

Jarvis may have more catches than ODB, but if he ends up being better then both are top ten WRs.

I'm a huge Jarvis fan, and I agree that he had a great rookie season. But none of that has anything to do with how awesome OBJ played. Odell flat out could not be stopped even with teams focusing completely on him the last 4 games of the year.

Landry is going to be a good WR in the NFL. That being said, he looks like a #2. ODBjr. looked utterly fantastic.

OBJ... For the love of God... It's OBJ
Posted on 1/12/15 at 10:36 am to tadelatt
Well I up voted not because I think Jarvis will have a better year next year but for the love for him. He is a favorite of mine and I thought and still think he will have a better career when done.

And, that's not a knock on Landry.
You are absolutely missing the boat on Beckham. He had one of the best rookie seasons for a WR ever.

OBJ: 7.6 rec/game
108.75 yds/game
1 td/game
14.3 yds/catch
Landry: 5.25 rec/game
47.4 yds/game
0.31 tds/game
9 yds/catch
What exactly does Landry do better than OBJ? Landry is a nice #2/3 receiver but OBJ already proved he is an elite #1. Stop being a Landry fan boy for a second and look at the facts.
