It's done via a grouping system, with Group A being the best, Group B being the 2nd best, and so on..

I personally would've put Smitty in Group C, but Smitty is still ahead of some pretty big names on the list. It's a pretty fair list all in all.

Shame how much the poor passing game we have had in Carolina has hurt Smitty's rep as a dominant WR.

This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. Smith IS one of the best WR in the game when he doesn't have a retard throwing to him.

#17 to #89 was one of the best combos in the league the past 10 years.

Who would you rank ahead and behind them?

. Roddy White, Falcons (^): Has 200 receptions and 21 touchdowns.

Group A = hell no .. thats a case of only being decent because you're the only receiver being thrown to , he was above average his whole career and he has 1 great year and now hes the 5th best in the game .. bull

4. A.J. Green, Bengals (^): Although he hasn't played a down in the NFL, the talent is obvious. It all depends on who the QB is in Cincinnati.

5. Julio Jones, Falcons (^): He's going into the perfect situation: a tremendous quarterback and Roddy White on the opposite side. Jones will see single coverage all year long and should put up some impressive numbers as a rookie.

Once again Bull they are above 15 other receivers that have played a down of football , and you can say they have talent , ( dwayne jarrett had talent too) but you can't rank someone that has done nothing. /rant

My coworker, a Chargers diehard, was talking about the rumors that Smitty make come to my hometown team if he leaves the Panthers. I would love to see 89 play for the Chargers if he won't stay. I don't know how successful he would be, but man he was amazing in the past.

You could fill a good 30 minutes with nothing but insane highlights from his career.

Manning to Harrison and Culpepper/Brady to moss .. can't think of any others atm

I'd say these guys should probably be considered tied or better

Warner - Fitzgerald

Schaub - Johnson

Warner - Holt

Rodgers -Jennings

Manning - Wayne

Palmer - Johnson

Roth- Holmes

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      They traded away their 1st next year also to get James Pearce Jr. Really hope this blows up in the Falcons face. I don't care how it happens, I just want to win the division this year. Zero sympathy for other team's issues. And our pass rush looks like it needs all the help it can get.

      I would have released him this season, tbh and worked with Christensen out there.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By Seltzer · Posted

      10/10. We're due for some good luck, and I think this team is much better than what we've had the last 2 seasons. Defensive injuries could derail us b/c our depth there is still questionable. Still worried about the pass rush getting pressure without blitzing. Pleasantly surprised by the secondary and run defense.  Dan Morgan has done a lot to resurrect this roster from the deplorable position Fitterer left it in by showing some scouting chops with hitting on these guys drafted in the later rounds or UDFAs. Lathan Ransom & Corey Thornton both look like they fit this scheme and the NFL isn't too big for them.  I'm as excited for the rookie trifecta of T-Mac, Scourton, and Princely as I can remember. On paper, this offense is the most talented since 2021, maybe 2017, and maybe 2015. None of that means this team will produce any better, but this team has offensive talent & depth like we have rarely had in team history. If you don't believe me, go Google it. We've had some awful offensive collections overall in many years, to varying degrees mitigated by superstar talents like Steve Smith, Christian Mccaffrey, or Cam Newton.  I honestly think the collective offensive talent in 2025 may be better, but Cam was so otherworldly in 2015 & 2017 that he covered any flaws. Seriously, though, Cam doesnt get enough love for 2017. I think that may have been his best season. In general, Cam doesn't get enough respect IMHO. Both in college and in the NFL, Cam took teams that without him would have had no chance and won. True definition of a guy who elevated his team. To be clear, I am in no way am I saying this team will be better than 2017 or 2015. My point is that the offensive talent is there on offense if Bryce can unlock it.  I've been a Bryce supporter, but there are no excuses not to perform with this group. This isn't the disaster we gave him in 2023 or a new scheme like in 2024 where I think he hadn't mentally removed from his rookie season to start. I dont know how you couldnt be excited about that. And we still compete in a division that isn't insurmountable. I got got in 2023 like most of us in buying into the team propaganda, but in general, I think I'm pretty realistic about the team. I knew in my heart we would be bad last year. I wasnt expecting the defense to be that bad or Bryce to start off that poorly, but I had no expectations whatsoever for making the playoffs. And I genuinely think we will be competitive all year this season. I think we win 8-9 games and compete for the division. I think the ceiling is 11 wins, and the floor is 7. The good news is after next week, we will all be proven right or proven wrong. Keep Pounding!
