Pretty simple, is Roddy White better than Andre Johnson, Calvin Johnson, or Larry Fitzgerald? _________________

Yes. Not a single wide receiver outside of Roddy White has had over 85 catches, 1150 yards and 6 TD's over each of the last five seasons. Add in his clutch plays and how teams have to account for him every play, he can be frustrating for a defense. His performance this year has him on pace to add a sixth straight year to his 85-1150-6 streak. One that has only been duplicated by two other players: Torry Holt and Jerry Rice.
Roddy White is the Rodney Dangerfield of Wide Receivers. He gets no respect from fans or analysts. But his colleagues will all say he is one of the best in the game. _________________

So which of Andre, Calvin, or Fitz is he better than? |

He thinks he's better than all of them.
He's the reason this thread has come to be.
Roddy White supposedly draws just as much if not more attention from D-coordinators than all of them. _________________

He's more consistent then Calvin and Fitz. I have it as this:
1) Calvin Johnson
2) Andre Johnson
3) Roddy White.
4) Larry Fitz. _________________

Way to try and put words in my mouth. Why don't you actually let me explain my stance in more than 140 characters. Quit acting like a jackhole.
I said Roddy is gameplanned against just like Andre, Calvin and Fitz are. You said he wasn't. You are completely wrong. Nice try though.
Roddy also CAN'T be the entire focus like any of those three. Mainly because you put 3 on Roddy, you give Julio and Tony the rest of the field. can't do that. _________________

This is just false...especially Calvin. Nobody gets gameplanned against like he does.
I'm a Falcons fan btw, but Roddy is not the dominant force that those top 3 are. |

Roddy white is not better than Larry Fitz. I have Greg Jennings better than him in fact. Hes either 5 or 6.
This is all prisoner of the moment. I guarentee you if roddy white didnt catch that ball which easily couldve been intercepted, we wouldnt be discussing this right now.
Roddy white is very good but there are couple more receivers than the consensus 3 i'd take over him. _________________

He is not Top-3.
He is a Top-10 receiver easily. _________________

Sorry but there is no way White is better than Fitzgerald if for the sole fact Fitzgerald is far more consistent catching the football.
But White is a top 5 receiver. |

It's easy to have seasons with that much stat accumulation when you are thrown to so much. |

Mesa, don't act like you know me. you don't. And you never will have the pleasure. But yes, I would call you a complete and total punk to your face. I'd call you much worse than anything that's allowed here. _________________
