:raises hand: But I also thought Odell would be great too. I just liked Landy's physicality. Miami uses him in a lot of ways.

O'Dell benefits from playing in New York.

I always thought Jarvis would be a better NFL talent. OBJ can make the circus catches, but Landry can make all the catches. Unbelievable hands. Could see Jarvis playing out like Larry Fitz.

Interesting. I haven't been paying that much attention but I didn't realize OBJ was having a poor NFL career.

Success is not only on the field, but at the bank. So who is most successful now is OBJ.

Yeah, but off-the-field success is often a by-product of circumstance...Being in the largest market benefits O'Dell.

Hasn't Odell had as many yards and TDs in his first 16 games anyone ever?

I think they are both doing fine

Jarvis is much more likeable IMO. OBJ def had the better first season it's debatable this year.

Honestly I have almost been more impressed with Landry. Its like splitting hairs and preference, but he is a flat out football player designed by God. His fire and tenacity and athleticism are infectious to me. Landry is on the very short list of my favorite Tigers of all time.

I did. Landry needs to play in a better market. OBJ is loved by the New York media. Landry should have a better career.

OBJ will struggle to recapture the media's attention once they move on to another superstar. Landry will continue to work hard and tally stats. The media will never worry Landry.

OBJ has Eli throwing to him.
Jarvis has Tannyhill.

That's the big pro difference.

Love how much Miami uses Landry.

All WR positions for slants, fades, etc., RB, Kick and punt returner.

He's a Swiss Army knife and he's awesome at it.

His 2011 season was not inconsistent.

I thought OBJR would have a better career because he had things you can't coach. His speed, acceleration,and agility were and are just better than Landry. Landry had better hands but when you get to the nfl most wrs have decent hands.

I was saying if I had a chance to draft either guy, I would have taken Landry. However, let's have this discussion in 10 yrs. Way to early to judge a career in a season and a half.

Based on what? I love Landry as a Tiger but if you were to have a wr redraft today, no GM would take Landry over OBJr.

I firmly believed that Juice would be the better NFL receiver. My buddies and I had several lively debates on this manner.

They are both very, very talented receivers.
