Define "one of the better".

He was one of the better Pro WRs of our time, no? When he was playing he was balling....

I guess it's all relative. I could probably name over 100 WR's who better off the top of my head. If you go all time I doubt he cracks the top 300.

a 100? 300? really?when he was at his peak he was beasting on the field, if you look at ability moreso than stats he's up there ... I give anybody that was at least a 3rd tier player a grade of being one of the better players in the NFL all time... not by numeral rankings... this guy did his thing out there.. One thing he did well, that A LOT of quality WRs did, but in big spots missed on, was catch the damn football... He did that pretty well during his career...

Been a sad couple of days with a number of influential of people passing away, except Charlie Manson who should have been gone in the 70's via The Death Penalty

This is an absolutely absurd comment. There is literally nothing to support this statement.
