Mario Manningham, Hakeem Nicks and Victor Cruz would be my pick.

I know they won a Super Bowl but I rarely hear them mentioned among the better WR groups in the NFL. Even at their peak it seemed to be more about Eli Manning than this WR trio.

I don't know if they qualify as underrated but Greg Jennings, Jordy Nelson, and Randall Cobb were an awesome trio.

Chris Hogan, Julian Edelman, and Danny Amendola. Who wins a Super Bowl with white wide receivers in the modern era of football?

I guess Moss, Welker and Stallpepper aren't underrated, but daaammmnnnnn. And Gaffney was the 4.

Marques Colston (70 rec 1074 15.3 ypc 9 tds
Robert Meachem (45 rec 755 yds 16ypc 9 tds)
Devery Henderson (51 recs 804 15.8 ypc 2tds)

2009 stats. These dudes were nails all year.

You beat me to this. Colston was never really known as a stud outside of NOLA. Meachem and Henderson were nightmares for defensive schemes due to their speed. It allowed us to maximize our sources of talent. Then, PT Cruiser and Bush on screens and Shockey at TE. That was lethal.

Most underrated NFL WR trio has to be Monk, Clark, and Sanders for Washington in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s. Almost all of the credit for Washington’s offensive success with different QBs is given to Joe Gibbs and the Hogs while Washington’s WR trio gets very little credit by comparison and I don’t know why. Those guys were very good and made the QB’s job a lot easier.

First group that came to mind for me.

Mid 80s Dolphins had Mark Clayton, Mark Duper, and Nat Moore. They had a pretty good quarterback, too; but they put up huge numbers despite many other WRs in the 80s getting more acclaim.

way off topic, but I still think it is crazy that Drew threw for 5k yards without a 1k yard receiver in 2008.

Last year Amari Cooper, Michael Gallup, and CeeDee Lamb with a combination of Andy Dalton, Ben Dinucci, Garrett Gilbert, and a little bit of Dak Prescott at QB put up 2900 yards and 15 tds. In the 5 games that Dak started they had 1205 yards (241 per game)
