Marques Colston reminds me of a former Denver Bronco, Rod Smith. Although Rod Smith seemed to be the better receiver overall, both were very consistent throughout their careers. Consistency in the NFL is a very rare thing for players that have limited skill sets (aforementioned players), and I think that should be commended in some way, even if it is by retiring a number.

I do feel like the system Marques Colston played in inflated his numbers, being a pass first offense most of the time. Rod Smith primarily played in the zone blocking scheme offense and on a run first offense.
