He’s not tripling anyone in receptions or yards. He’s barely ahead. Looking back at the all pros, it seems as if there are several. Depending on who’s voting. Two years again, there were 7 WRs named Edited December 22, 2020 by NewEra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted December 22, 2020 Author Share Posted December 22, 2020 Wes Welker was named all pro in 2009 with only 4 receiving TD's. Here are six WR's that have been name first team all pro since 2000 that have had 7 or few receiving TD's: Pro Football Reference: Stathead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted December 22, 2020 Author Share Posted December 22, 2020 Just now, Joe Ferguson said: What's the latest news on his foot injury? McDermott: reports are "not overly worrisome" . But doesn't have great clarity yet. The thing that sucks is even if he is questionable we would probably shut him down for this next game. But probably the right thing to do. Especially if John Brown is 100%. Get him some reps again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 He at worst is a second team all pro but I actually think he might squeak first team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. He's been getting a TON of love from the national media for how much he has elevated our offense. Rightly so too. Storylines matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year was Hopkins Thomas and Julio If Diggs leads the league in receptions plus 1400+ Yds... I can overlook 5-6 TDs. Metcalf was not seen in some big games. Seattle still did fine. Hill Benefits from having a crazy core around him. Diggs is by far getting more attention from defenses cause he the only real threat on our team. If he’s not on Buffalo, Buffalo season is way different. Adams is having a great year but also missed games like 2 I think... does that play a factor? Its tough but I say Diggs is a strong candidate. Diggs, Hill, Hopkins? I like all these points. I think it leads to Adams, Diggs, Hopkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 His low number of TD's will hurt his chances. Over 30 receivers have more TD's (including TE's). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msw2112 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 2 hours ago, NewEra said: Absolutely not. Adams missed 2 games almost triples Diggs TD....he’s behind in reception and yards.. Adams averages 5 more yards per game. He has almost 200 more YAC. Diggs has been amazing, but adams has been the best Wr in football this season. the other spot is a tossup between Diggs, DHop and Tyreek imo. Metcalf coming up next Diggs wins over DHop imo because his team is better. Hill and Diggs, it just depends what you value more. Catches or TDs. Hill triple Diggs’ TDs while Diggs has almost 30 more receptions and is leading the league in targets, 18 more than Tyreek. Tyreek doesn’t even lead his TEAM in targets tough call. Seems to me like there should be 3 first team All pro WRs nowadays conserving most teams employ at least 3 wrs most of the time. if I were an unbiased voter and was looking at stats: Adams gets my first vote, Hill 2nd, Diggs 3rd. as a Bills fan: Diggs, then Beasley then adams C'mon man! As a Bills fan, Diggs, then Beasley, then Brown, then Davis, then TD Jesus. As an unbiased voter, probably Adams, Hill, Diggs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think Diggs is more of a team leader than Tyreek. That has value. Also he's Buffalo Bill, and this is our F*ckin year baby ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 1st: Adams and Hopkins 2nd: Diggs and Hill 3rd: Metcalf and Allen? If he has another monster game on MNF against the Pats maybe that will push him into #1 spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he has another monster game on MNF against the Pats maybe that will push him into #1 spot That would be key. If Diggs puts up a 10 reception, 150 yard, 2 TD game it would go a long ways. Particularly if he has some crazy highlight catch or freakish yac play. Edited December 22, 2020 by Buffalo Junction 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there is precedent for not always awarding high TD totals. And we came very close in 2016. 2016 Julio Jones won the award with 83 receptions, 1409 yards and 6TDs over Jordy Nelson who had 97 receptions, 1257 yards and 14 TD's 2010 Roddy White won the award with 111 reception, 1355 yards and 6TDs over Dwayne Bowe who had 72 receptions 1162 yards and 15 TD's Also of note, no WR in NFL history has ever not won the award when tallying at least 120 receptions and 1400 yards. 10 for 10 Stathead: 1400 yards and 120+receptions WR's in NFL history have won the award 9 out of 14 times when totaling 15+TDs, 85+ receptions and 1200+ yards Stathead: 1200+ yards, 15+ TDs and 85+ receptions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
