I guess he's the best right now but I like Moss' talent better
Where does Larry Fitzgerald rank in the discussion of top receivers?

Pound for pound means nothing.
Iverson may be the best "pound-for-pound" guard in the history of the NBA, but it does not make him the best.
1a. Larry Fitzgerald
1b. Andre Johnson
Steve Smith was shut down by a rookie CB in his second playoff game, ever.

you must not have watched that game, the Cardinals were getting all kinds of pressure on Delhomme, not to mention Delhomme was horribly inaccurate& making terrible decisions that entire game.

Top 3. I can make a case for Fitz, Andre, and Calvin being the best.
He has the best hands in the NFL without a doubt though.

Man I brought this up a couple of months ago.
He is the best receiver IMO in terms of skills.
Where her suffers is he is not an explosive athlete so I cannot rank him number 1..

the thing is you cant really be consistent with the best WR because there is no clear cut #1. You could realistically put 3 or 4 guys at #1
Steve Smith
Larry Fitzgerald
Andre Johnson
Randy Moss
you can make a legitimate case for all of them as the best WR in the game

pick a top 5 and stick to it.
just last year, Moss and TO were hands down #1 and #2 on everybody's list, and anybody that said otherwise was flamed. this year, i've seen too manypeople list Fitz, Steve Smith, Andre Johnson, Calvin Johnson, etc before even mentioning Moss or TO. did they really get that much worse in one year?
my opinion with WR is that if you're good, you're good. just because someone doesn't have the greatest production does not mean they got worse. theskills are still there, its just that maybe their QB or offensive coordinators just can't get them the ball as frequently as they would like. if youinterchanged Fitz with anyone from Moss, TO, Steve Smith, Andre Johnson, Calvin Johnson, the production would be the same, if not more. all those guys canplay. so don't go by a player's most recent production when making these lists.

funny stuff.
the thing is you cant really be consistent with the best WR because there is no clear cut #1. You could realistically put 3 or 4 guys at #1
But it's easy to view who YOU see as #1, and not change up in one week.
but niketalk changes complete views of football teams and players in a matter of hours on a weekly basis.
Word. After two plays in the Wild Card round, dudes gave the crown to Fitz.
You already know how I felt about Fitz and have always felt about him (no @$%%). I kept praying he would be a Cowboy since he was having some issues with TheCards.

yes but being the best WR in the game doesnt change week to week. that is something that at earliest changes year-year.
but i think for the last couple years its been a group of guys that were all arguably #1 & it was
Randy Moss
Terrell Owens
Marvin Harrison
Torry Holt
but now we have a new group of guys that are all arguably #1 & it is
Steve Smith
Larry Fitzgerald
Andre Johnson
Calvin Johnson
Reggie Wayne

I'll say him and Andre hold down the top 2 spots for now. However, I would also like to say if Calvin Johnson was in a different situation on anotherteam.... there would not be a damn receiver seeing him. He would be the indisputable #1 player at the position. Some may think I am going a bit overboard withthat statement but I do think he is THAT good.
