But really, the KG may be correct that Nicks will be the best player going forward but to this point Harvin's production and contribution towers over him.
I understand that Hicks was banged up and didn't start but that's not the other WR's fault.

So Nicks averages more yards per game, more per catch, more yards after the catch, has one less total touchdown in about 30 less touches and has done all of this in two less games...........and Harvin's production towers over him? I'm completely lost.

As a reciever they are comparible but I was considering total contribution to his team. Harvin has been spectacular on special teams.

These are Mike Wallace's stats:
21 catchs for 368 yds 17.5 per catch 2 TD's

He was the 4th reciever for the first couple games of the season. He as yet to start a game and plays maybe half the snaps. So has Mike Wallace been better than Nicks?

Absolutely. And look at where the catches came. They were important plays in the middle of tight games as opposed to garbage time stats in blow outs.

I think at the end of the day thats the point. Not just that Harvin has made more plays but that the plays he made actually MATTERED.

What really sucks is the Bills could have taken Cushing instead of Maybin at #11 like many were projecting and have both the top two for defensive ROY.
