So where would you put Steve Smith on your top ten list of receivers?


Recommended Posts

i can't agree with you there.

maybe he's a top 10 receiver in the league RIGHT NOW, but no where near the top 5 all time.

1a andre johnson

1b larry fitzgerald

2 Reggie Wayne

3 Moss

4 Brandon Marshall

5 Ochocinco

6 Smitty

not sure about the rest, bolden, Calvin Johnson, ward, driver, TO, and welker are all somewhere in there too, i don't feel like ranking anyone after smitty though.

Current active players:

1A: Andre Johnson

1B: Fitzy

3: Megatron

4: Brandon Marshall

5: Randy Moss

6: Smitty

7: Reggie Wayne

8: Ochocinco

9: Vincent Jackson

10: Sidney Rice

now this list is just off the top of my head. I've got a brutal headache from all the damn pollen in my area now, so I know I'm forgetting someone or I put someone in the wrong place. the way I see it though, is Fitz and Andre are on a whole different level from all other receivers, and the rest are for the most part interchangeable based on individual opinions.

I will say that out of all of those receivers; Smitty, Brandon Marshall, and Megatron(Calvin Johnson for those who don't know) all have average to below average quarterbacks(or worse..) throwing them the ball. Moss, Fitz, Wayne, and Rice have future HOF'ers throwing them the ball, and V-Jax has Rivers who is a top 5 QB.

I love making these kinds of lists so I'll definitely be back to edit and look at others.

Steve is arguably the greatest "Smith" of all time. (It's a toss up between him and Emmitt Smith IMO)

It's unfortunate because if Steve Smith had Peyton Manning as a quarterback, I have 0% doubt that he would have already posted multiple 2,000 yard receiving seasons. I think he's the greatest physical talent ever at wide receiver given his size, speed, strength, and jumping ability. The only thing he's ever slightly lacked was route running, which is by no means sub par, and he more than makes up for it with his other remarkable abilities.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
