    Would you rather have Wes Welker as #1?

    Give Johson Kurt Warner or Tom Brady as his QB, and it wouldn't even be a debate.

    Moss has only played one year with Brady. And Calvin has played with worse QBs than Andre.

    Also, wtf kind of reasoning is that? I'm talking about football players and you're playing make believe.

    Andre has put up nice stats with no name QB's. Calvin Johnson has been in the league two years, he is not better than Andre Johnson yet. Will he be? Yeah, but not right now. Randy Moss is still great, but I don't think he is a top 3 WR any more. I'll take Andre and Calvin Johnson, Steve Smith, Anquan Boldin, and Larry Fitzgerald over him now a days.

    That's fine, I just don't think Andre is #1. He's definitely top 5, but I think #1 is a stretch.

    I don't see how Moss isn't top three, his QB was just learning to play at the start of the year. Cassel only got hot well into the season, otherwise he settled for short stuff and let NE's efficient rush attack take pressure off him. Moss is still right there.

    Moss is top 5, imo. Not top 3.

    Boldin has nagging injuries and played with a much more experienced QB, he's not better. Make a case for the other 3/4 if you want.

    I didn't miss anything. Boldin hasn't been top five in a while, I'm just saying my opinion on that. He's been injury prone lately, pretty much since his second year in the league.

    When the Texans make the playoffs Johnson will dominate. Key thing though, is when.

    Every week that guy would catch a deep pass, I was very impressed with CJ last year obviously. Receptions stat doesn't do him justice.

    Since everyone's talking about top 3's and top 5's, it might make sense to include our rankings:

    1. Larry Fitzgerald
    2. Randy Moss
    3. Calvin Johnson
    4. Andre Johnson
    5. Steve Smith
