If Steve Smith was in Pepp's situation right now...

I couldn't really rate a top 3 wide receivers because there are at least 5 wr who just have different play style and thus may affect their stats, but this would be mine in no particular order.

1. Steve

2. Fitz

3. Andre Johns

4. Calvin Johnson

5. Moss or Reggie Wayne

The difference is year in and year out Smitty is the man. Reggie Wayne to me is second because of consistancy. Fitz 3 with both Johnsons and finally Moss. Moss is an upgraded T.O.

Well, I am not exactly sure if teams would be lining up or not, if Anquan Boldin and Braylon Edwards are any indication. It would probably depend on the compensation involved. It's not like Smitty's rep is golden around the league either.

Just food for thought.

Some of you would probably disagree, but Smitty and Pep fit in with this organization like a hand in a glove. Anywhere else, they would be perceived as being overpaid, but that isn't necessarily the case here. We know what we've got, and the FO is willing to pay for their services (IMHO, as well they should).

Smith is the 3rd best receiver in the league. Johnson is the best (I think), and Fitz is second. I don't get why so many people want to call Calvin Johnson one of the best in the league already. He sure has the tools, and could definitely get there...I just haven't seen him prove it yet.

I agree with the thread though. Smith would be a hotter commodity than Pepp.

We would have had some picks for Smith just because of his consistence. He is always above 1000 yards even when we are a run first team. Pep on the other hand is a hot and cold player and IDK who defends him he takes plays off and thats why. The dude just dose not have the drive of greatness like Smith and others.

Smitty's great. Definitely top 5. But there is no doubt Fitzgerald is the best WR in the game today...

Definitely the flavor of the day, but does that actually make him #1, just because he burned us in a playoff game? Not positive on that one, the line is very small...

    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
    • I dont recall that happening to a qb but my memory has been crap the past few years
