MTD's Wide Receiver Rankings

Everyone loves a list, right?  Matt Miller over at Mocking the Draft has ranked the top 314 receivers in the NFL.  Now even if you don't agree with the rankings, it is pretty impressive that he took the time to rank 314 receivers.  Who even knew there were 314 receivers in the NFL?

Anyways, the first Tennessee Titans' receiver on his list is Roydell Williams at #47.  I don't really have an issue with that.  What I do have an issue with is that Justin Gage is ranked all the way down at #82.  How are there 35 spots between guys who has the exact same number of catches, and Gage had more yards? 

The bigger issue here is that the Titans barely have a top 50 wide receiver.  People give Vince Young a lot of heat, and I will grant them that he played pretty badly last season, these people need to have some common sense and see the weapons he has been given.  However, the times are a changin with Mike Heimerdinger at the helm.

Other Titans receivers ranked as follows:

Brandon Jones #98

Lavelle Hawkins #146

Chris Davis #164

Mike Williams #170

Paul Williams #197

Biren Ealy #242

How does Paul Williams rank 197?

how could 117 WRs have shown LESS than P. Williams has? Biren Ealy should have been ahead of him since he’s at least suited up and made 1 catch in the NFL.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say...

...Lavelle Hawkins is already the best receiver on the team. He’ll have 40+ catches this year.

Roydell is higher...

..because he has double the TDs, I would expect.

I’m a little surprised that Mike Williams cracked the top 200, given his career so far.

..or...

...because he’s taking into account “potential” and most national pundits seem to think Gage overachieved last year, while Roydell has a bigger “upside.”

5-11

and we lose to the texans twice – nah sir. aint gonna happen.
The Fish, the Dinger, Jim Scwhartz, and VY and the Crump and Fat Al and KVB are the reasons why. maybe even a little bit of a rookie surprise in CJ or Lavelle Hawk.
they said that about us last year too.
piss on that

Justin McCareins is a Titans now

I see he didn’t rank high on that ranking either but they say he has been lighting it up at the early sessions. He didn’t do well in NY but showed a lot of promise when he was here and jumped for the big payday he got in free agency. Probably was over payed and had too high of expectations in NY and fell out of favor there but Heimerdinger likes him and he should be pretty productive. Don’t forget him.
