Dont forget Harrison has one of the top 15 QB's of all time, and was also drafted about 70 picks higher than Owens.

Right...because the relative draft point is always a perfect prognositicator of how successful a player ultimately will be in the NFL relative to other players at his position. :)

It wasn't for Mike Williams?

 

From what i hear the Bucs were, disappointed was it, with Big Mike and now he is having a stellar season.

 

Please, learn your facts.

That's just an example why it's so hard to get in the HOF as a WR. It's probably the easiest position to put up big numbers.

While you might not be able to predict an individual player's success based on where he was drafted, if you did a study on the success of players by round picked, you'd find the % of successful players drops per round. I once heard Charlie Casserly say a player picked in the 6th round has a 10% chance of success.

Harrison has 211 more catches but only 6 more touchdowns than TO. Not that I like TO but that is equal to about two great years of catches over the same time.

Dont forget that Harriosn also played with a couple of good backs in the back field! Faulk and James, surely took some of them TD's both running and recieving from him.

 

What good running backs did T.O. have on the teams he has played on? I cannot think of any atm.....at least compariable to faulk or James. But I could be wrong there.

I also think that Joe Horn has been the best producer for draft position on this list.  I didn't know that he was so late in the draft.

Not only was he drafted late but he also started his career in the CFL. One has to wonder what the Chiefs brass was thinking as he had a great year in the CFL but caught a grand total of 18 receptions his first three NFL seasons. He then had a "breakout" year in his fourth season when he grabbed 35 balls. He then signed with the Saints and became a star.

Moulds was a terrific consulation prize, though. You must admit.

Moulds had to be "Moulded". Marvin was ready to go.

 

Remember the drops and not very good play from Moulds his first couple of years?
