    Let's pretend all the juniors are going to the draft this year (that means Ginn, Calvin Johnson, Jarrett, ect.), who is the best reciever in this draft class? I made this topic because there are some really good recievers that could maybe head to the draft and many different people have their opinions on who is the best and who is going to get picked first. So the question is, who do you say is the best and who would you rather have on your team?I personally think Calvin Johnson is the better reciever. CJ is 6'5" with a 45" vertical leap. He has great hands and he is very mature. He went to GT because it was close to home when he could have gone to just about any school. He doesn't get utilized as well as he could. Reggie Ball isn't that great of a QB and he looks to run more than he does to throw. Calvin Johnson is the type of guy that you can throw the ball up to even when he is double-teamed. He will jump up, grab it with one hand, and then act like nothing happened. He shows his competitiveness on the field, but yet shows humility. He doesn't rub in a catch in the corner's face, he doesn't get in fights, and he doesn't get called for unsportsman-like conduct. Calvin's Intangibles are just as good as his ability to perform. I think he will be a great reciever in the league in the years to come and I think he is a great pick.

    It's obviously Calvin Johnson, he's Terrell Owens with better hands and athletic ability. The guy just reminds me so much of him, huge, tall with large strides.

    There's no doubt in my mind that it's Calvin Johnson from Georgia Tech. The man got hops. Soft hands. Period.

They told him not to play, but he wants to.

    I've seen Calvin Johnson play all through his career since he goes to Tech..He's 6'5, 235 lbs. He is built like a truck, and he runs through arm tackles. He's got INCREDIBLE hands, he makes catches that are just crazy. Being so huge you wouldnt think he'd be so fast, and quick with his moves. But he is very very fast, and he owns most cornerbacks with his size, athletiscm, and strength. I love the guy as a person though. He's such a humble guy, and a great man to be around. I read an article in the paper that he signed up for a job with some small organaztion. Johnson was givin a choice weather he'd like to help design luxury condo's or a design to help the sanitation in some city in Bolivia, that was in poverty. He wanted to help the less fortunate, and this summer he'll be traveling to Bolivia to start the construction. He's just such a great player, and he lets his game speak for himself..I cant wait to see him play in the NFL with a QB who can actually get him the ball.

    I think it's Calvin Johnson. Tall, athletic, great hands, he can be a deep threat, etc...He is going to be the next stud WR in the League.

    One thing that doesn't get reconized is the fact that Georgia Tech is not a good team, so he doesn't put up the numbers he's capible of. If that team had other threats and he had a better offense this guy would be a household name.

    Johnson is the best I think but Jarrett will have a good career also, they'll be close. I don't see Ginn doing too much, just a personal opinion.
