Best NFL receiving corps

To include TE's who do you think will have the most productive NFL receiving corps this season?

Denver would be the best bet statistically, but I'm going to go with Dallas as far as pure talent. I think Williams is going to make a leap.

Re: Best NFL receiving corps

For me it's between Denver and 49ers. If I had to pick one I would take 49ers.

Re: Best NFL receiving corps

It's really hard to judge considering the QB plays a huge role in the receivers performance (ex: anyone with Manning).

For me, I'll say Chicago - the size, hands and athleticism of those guys is second to none.

Re: Best NFL receiving corps

I'm voting Chicago for now.

The sheer star power of San Francisco's group is going to make it interesting to watch, and I personally think that Eric Ebron could do wonders for Detroit's offense.

Also, not sure where they'd fall in the group above, but I think the Packers' group - Nelson, Cobb, Boykin, whoever Green Bay lines up at TE to catch the ball from Aaron Rodgers - is at least worth mentioning, even moreso if the Cowboys' group is in the discussion.

I still picked Chicago. A case can be made for most of these though. I wouldn't include:

Indy (I love Wayne but he's older and can't ignore injuries... can't ignore Nicks injuries either)
Saints (Brees and the offense gives them stats but Graham is really the only one. Colston is Wayne)

Both are quality choices, but I think they're a notch down from the others, and on par with a few other teams.

I thought long and hard about the 9ers. But Boldin and Johnson may be more name now than production (still very productive but we're talking about best core in the league).

I'd definitely include GB's group here, as well as Washington. DJax, Garcon, Roberts and Reed can go toe to toe with any of those groups (on a stat sheet).

That's my bad I didn't even see the poll I just rattled off their best targets. I will stand with the Bears. Marshall & Alshon are just so talented and we have one in the prime and one not even there yet. Bennett is a pretty underrated option as well and he's a very good athlete.
