Which WR will finish with more when it’s all said and done, Adams or Evans?
Admit it, this post is just to remind us that Jimmy Graham is still active lol
Idk why it just feels like Evans has been in the league way longer. But my vote is for Adams. FRESNO STATE BABY
Bias in full effect here, but without a doubt Evans.
Whichever one that doesn’t end up on the jets.
Travis Kelce was drafted in 2013 ? Isn’t he the same age as Gronk ?
Mike Evans because he’ll have Stroud throwing to him the next few years 😉
TAMU fan fiction
Without looking at that table you would never ever be able to guess who number 3 is
Graham lowkey made a comeback this season. He was out of football last season. One of those NBA-style farewell tour.
Hi Pro Football Reference
Adams easily.
Gonna be close - Evans was further behind Adams before the start of this year, but he’s gotten more TDs this year (and had a better QB to be fair).
I see them both passing 100+ though
If one of them plays one more year than the other that might make the difference. I think Evans is likely to play longer from here on out.
Why’s that? I feel like Adams is more suited for longevity due to his route running
Lots more mileage per season and also a chip on his shoulder all the time I think will burn him out faster. Close call though they are both just a couple concussions away now maybe.
Size ages pretty well too though. Evans never needed to win with speed or agility.
It’s pretty interesting that every single player with 87+ receiving touchdowns is either in the Hall of Fame, or about to be in the Hall of Fame (Gronk, Fitzgerald, Gates).
I don’t see how anybody could argue against Mike Evans as an inevitable HOF receiver, especially if he has another 2-3 seasons at his current level of play. His consistency is something to marvel at.
The only knock is no all-pros, but I think consistency at Evans’ level combined with a ring will get him in.
No all pros means he was never considered one of the best at his position. Is he really better than Torry Holt? Evans’s streak is nice, but sort of meaningless. Would he be much worse if he had 2 less yards in 2017?
Only one second-team all-pro is a huge downside. That’s a very thin resume. How many people in the HoF have a resume that thin? How many seasons of his career has he been a top 3 receiver?
He will be all.pro this year
No shot. Tyreek, keenan allen, ceedee lamb, Diggs, ajb and amon ra all have a better case
And half of the people you listed are in the AFC. He’s top 3 NFC right now.
It’d be interesting to see how high Tyreek ends up on that list. You figure playing with Tua and Mike McD will boost his numbers a lot in the near future, but receivers reliant on speed don’t always age well once they’re past 30.
Evans is qb proof, I think he gets the edge.
Whoever ends up with a better QB
