kiwifalcon Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 at least Denver is arguable. Niners receivers are just ok....Really Jones > Thomas White > Decker TG > Welker because of the red zone threat.No contest if you ask me Dawg I just don't see anyone in the league that has the same abilities with regards to pass catching in the league.

Birdy™ Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Only one of them said the 49ers had a better WR corpse. The rest said Falcons/Broncos, which is debatable to which one is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLFalcons11 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 no homerism, welker is better than whiteCan't compare a slot receiver to an outside receiver.Because of coverage responsibilities you VERY RARELY can play tight on a slot receiver.This is why Victor Cruz is so good as well. Put Welker on the outside and he's not nearly as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcons007 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Absolutely no hommerism White is light years better than Welker. I mean it's not even close.Only Calvin Johnson has been better than White in last 3 years. No one else on the field. Power rankings may be others.

ATLFalcons11 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 LOLI agree. Maybe he doesnt understand the responsibilities of being and outside receiver as opposed to a just a slot receiver. Miles different apart. Being an outside receiver is much more difficult than being a slot receiver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLFalcons11 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Only Calvin Johnson has been better than White in last 3 years. No one else on the field. Power rankings may be others.Exactly. The only WR I would out above Roddy other than Calvin regardless of stats is Larry Fitz and thats because he just hasn't had the QB help.

I seem to be the only one of us thinking clearly here. lolEven 90% of Saints fans would place Roddy above Welker and they hate the guy.I also never said Roddy is only behind Calvin. He is too 5 though easy and Welker is not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesgall13 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Expected this from the media, surprised they didn't include Seahawks cause 49ers and them are gonna make the NFC Championship game and there is no point any other teams trying apparently.

Mcredd Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 The worst one of the bunch is unarguably DeckerThe best one is arguably Julio Jones, but if anyone anywhere is going to pick 1 from that group it'll be JuliosoJulioThomasGonzalezWelkerWhiteDeckerStill gives us the edge in better receiving corps. Even though TG and RW are better than Thomas especially with their resume. 6 straight 1000 yard seasons for white. Welker has been good but he's a slot guy and will still be very good, just not like with Brady.I think it's more really likeJulioRWThomasWelkerTG ---- just cause lack of spreading the field at this stage of his career.Decker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welker is missing from top 6 or 7 thought he plays for high scoring offense.Yards: RW: 4036Welker: 37713rd down conversions:RW is first in the nfl: 151 conversions. Welker is not even top 5.First downs: RW is number 2 with 223 first downs, just 6 less than Calvin Johnson.Welker is 4th with 196 first downs.Explosive plays: RW had 94 explosive plays in last 3 years. He is second behind CJ. Welker is not even in top 5.What is Welker actually better than Roddy white in? Yards?TD?3rd downs? first downs? Explosive plays? That is not even considering he plays in the slot when big boys play outside.http://falconsblitz....h.H5lfXhao.dpbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
