I pretty much agree with this with the addition of Muhammad for WR2.

I do think Jayce Horn is probably already the best CB in franchise history in terms of ability. But I understand him not earning the spot yet. 

I didn't take the WR2 spot because it was just simpler for me. I would agree on Moose, obviously.

Horn probably doesn’t make top ten in franchise history because you actually have to play games to do so. I'm actually not trying to be flippant when I say that but that same argument could be made for a lot of our injury plagued players in franchise history. 

Would have and could have just end up mattering very little when you compare them to did.

I'll make it a bit interesting, especially since a have some free time. If I had to make a 53 man roster with our all-time players. I would do this

When you go back and look at stats, McCaffrey totaled about what Stewart and Williams did when you combine his rushing and receiving, but he never even passed Cam on the all-time rushing list. 

Safety was hard, but I went with Harris over Cota due to his 12 FFs in 3 years.

2nd string RT was hard too.

I don't know what y'all are thinking with JStew. He was a good RB but the guy only had one 1000 yard season in his career. 

I mean it wasn’t his fault he was drafted behind Williams. But I think just on his ability in his  prime he was the best between the tackles runner. He had power, and the speed to break away.  Almost like our version of Fred Taylor. 

It’s hard because imo both Williams and Stewart were top 5 talents in their day but they were taking reps away from each other on the same team. 
 

Deangelo might be a HOFer in another timeline for another squad. In his day he  closest thing I’ve seen to Barry Sanders save for maybe Saquan. He just didn’t have the top end gear, at least not for long.

LaFell never even had a 700 yard season for us. Not sure he would make a top 10 list of our WR's. All his best years were post Carolina.

He was very talented, when he was available. 

McCaffrey is hard to judge because he really didn't have much talent around him. He was 90% of the offense. So he got most of the touches but he also didn't have much support. 

Stewart/Williams had Steve Smith, Greg Olsen, and (for a while) Cam on the field as well. They had a supporting cast but also less opportunity than he did.

Not much else to pick from. Here is our Top 25. 

This is how poor our WR history is.

Kelvin was better. Plus he could play LT in a pinch in 2014.

Also, I puked in my mouth a little reading that list. So many busts.

Truthfully, the seniors club like Proehl/Cotchery were probably better than Benjamin/LaFell/Funchess/etc.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
