Going into this week:
Harvin had 23 catches for 285 yards (12.4 ypc), and two touchdowns. He had played seven games (three starts) and his yards per game is 40.7. His yards after the catch average is 5.6.

Nicks had 16 catches for 315 yards (19.7 ypc), and four touchdowns. He had played five games (one start) and his yards per game is 63.0. His yards after the catch average is 11.1.

Harvin is a dynamic kick returner, one of the best in the league already. That is what brings him into the conversation. Just off of their receiving numbers thus far, it's not even close to me and Harvin is playing with a much better quarterback. Nicks is third in the NFL in yards per catch (Miles Austin 23.7, DeSean Jackson 20.1) and his yards after the catch is second among all receivers (Austin 12.2). You'd take Harvin and that's fine. I won't tell you that you are wrong. I'll take Nicks because I think he is more productive on the field.
