They weren't as good as Moss. Other than strength, there isn't any measurable thing I could think of that places them higher than Moss. We're talking about arguably the best receiver in history that was also a state 100/200 meter champ in track and was good enough to be voted top basketball player in the state over a future top 10 pick NBA player. Bowden and Holtz both said he was the best athlete ever at their respective schools and he never even played for them. Jackson was great. Brown was too. Deion Sanders was too. Joe Mauer is another top one. Maybe Dave Winfield is comparable.
