It's really a toss up bc there's no way to put them head to head, so I'm not saying you're wrong for thinking Fitz is better. But those aren't really reasons of how he's better.
They're both listed at 6'3", I don't think most people realize Larry is that big because of how athletic he is. It's hard to say who is faster. Andre has played more career games, but he hasn't had as many years with a good QB as Larry has. Larry has more TDs by a good bit and their Avg YPC is identical. Overall it really is a 1 or 1a debate. The thing Larry gives me is he's been in the big games and made the big plays so I know he's going to be there for me. I'm not suggesting Andre wouldn't, but we already know what we're getting with Larry. I still think he has the best hands I have ever seen, but there's no way to prove that with anything.

Andre Johnson.

Although who's greater in this day and age of pass-happy rules? Andre Johnson or Darrelle Revis? Watching him shutdown practically half of this list was a thing of beauty.

I like Calivin Johnson too. But Andre Johnson can be the greatest WR next year.

Welker is the best IMO. He would of broken Harrison's single-season reception record if he stayed healthy at the end of the season.

Re: who is the best reciever in the NFL?

As someone who is adamantly opposed to the Dolphins trading for Brandon Marshall, Brandon Marshall is far and away the best WR in the NFL. He's just undefendable.

When the Jets play the Pats, you know who they put Revis on? Randy Moss. They have the choice between taking one of two of this topic's best WR candidates out of the game and they choose to get rid of Moss. I'll trust Rex Ryan on this one. Wes Welker isn't better than Moss and certainly isn't the best WR in the game. Besides that 14 TDs in three years doesn't scream best WR in the league to me. Hell, Vernon Davis almost had 14 TDs in one season alone.

I want to say Reggie Wayne, but I would be kidding myself. Andre Johnson is just a beast.
