While I am not sure there has ever been a more accomplished WR room than Evans, Godwin, Brown etc. I think this year's WR room could potentially have more yards.Â
Reggie Wayne, Marvin Harrison, and I think his name was Brandon Stokely had the most productive year with Manning and the Colts and I am not sure that can be duplicated but, when you know with near certainty that if healthy, Godwin and Egbuka will have north of 1000 yards each and you see that same potential in McMillan, add the sure hands of Tez and rookie Ted, this could be a very special group. Â
It's tough for the slot receiver to be the lead receiver for a team, happens about 15% of the time. But I think Godwin has slightly more yards than Egbuka, who has slightly more yards than McMillan.Â
Godwin - 1200 - 11
Egbuka - 1130 - 14
McMillan - 950 - 8
Tez/Ted - 820 - 6
Also, and I wish analysts would adopt this when making statements about WR rooms. The TEs and the RBs are not now, nor will they ever be part of the WR room. I am not sure why this often gets conflated when doing an analysis of WR rooms in the NFL.Â
