but I think he’s easily top 5 of all time.


In no particular order:

Jerry Rice
Terrell Owens
Chris Carter
Larry Fitzgerald
Marvin Harrison
Calvin Johnson
Randy Moss
Isaac Bruce
Tim Brown
Andre Johnson

When I first read the post I was thinking he would crack my top ten but thinking about it he had 2 or 3 years where he was the best on the field but I am thinking he might only be borderline top 15 on my list. There are some older players that deserve to be higher up too. It also depends on how you factor in his returning prowess.

His career was clearly cut short by crazy and he would have almost certainly moved up into my top ten (maybe even high on it) if he was sane and didn't get injury prone. He left the game, literally showing the world he was still in elite shape physically.

He’s 2nd or 3rd all time to me. Dude was getting double teamed and was still running wide open all damn game.

By far the most prolific pass catcher and run after catch in his heyday

Randy Moss scored 1/3 of Antonio Browns "peak" TDs in one season. GTFO

it still baffles me how someone of Julio's size and speed couldn't score a TD.

Julio is 27th all-time in receptions
Julio is 16th all-time in yards
Julio is 67th all-time in TDs

(though I guess Andre Johnson is worse:

11th in receptions
11th in yards
51st in TDs)

He was pretty damn great but wouldn’t take him over Jerry Rice or Randy Moss.


Colossal understatement.
