uhhh yea

2nd all time receiving TDs
3rd all time receptions
5th in receiving yards


He was a four year starter. Also, he didn't really have a great supporting cast in his final two seasons. LaFell was THE guy. There was no Landry to his Beckham, and no Davis to his Bowe.

I'm not saying he wasn't good, but his stats look better than a guy that left after three years and had another big time target on the field.

Terrance Tolliver had only 60 fewer receiving yards than LaFell had his senior year in 2009. He had Demetrius Byrd his junior year. No, he didn't have a guy like Odell opposite him, but that's a little ridiculous to expect that. He had great running backs and very solid second options at receiver.

Just looked at his stats. Not super impressive. But that could be reflective of the teams he played on.



I think that might be the case, he was a 1st rd pick in the NFL draft.

Martin
Reed
Davis
Bowe
Carson

Martin is #1 for me because of the touchdown catch against Florida State in 82.
