The Most Underrated WR in all of Football. (1 Viewer)

BigTex

Don't mess with Texas
Terry Glenn

He gets no love. He didn't get hurt last year, he stayed healthy and he produced.

This year he's averaging 15pts a game. In another thread, before the season started, I said the T. Glenn was the #1 WR in Dallas and Elderado was the #2 and I got laughed at.

At some point he'll command respect. He got speed and great hands. How many passes have you seen him drop?

TG is a must start every week and as of today he deserves to be a tier 1.

 
I thought same thing going into the draft. Stellar WR2 who was drafted as a 3 or 4. Was able to trade my actual WR2 last week so I could promote Glenn to starter. Worked out well this week.

I'm hoping TO stays healthy. IMO, Glenn will suffer if he is the #1 and is double-teamed. But he is such a good WR that he eats up single coverage as a #2.

There's no doubt in my mind that Glenn is/has/will benefit from Elderado being on the field, but remember Glenn has produced when he hasn't been there as well.There was a thread some time ago as to who'll benefit from T.O. If I had to rank it today it'll look like this:1. Glenn2. JJ3. Bledsoe4. Witten

And you being a Dallas fan, no homer feelings in this at all is there? Glenn is doing fine, but he is a WR2...

Hello MOP, with all due respect I disagree and his numbers agree with me. He's the #3 ranked WR right now, I don't know if I'd say he's a #2 WR.P.S. When it comes to fantasy football I don't let my homerism get in the way, I just call it like I see it.

In my league last year, Glenn finished tied for the 8th best WR in FF pts. Id say he should repeat last years numbers, if not surpass them with TO drawing all the doubles.A must start WR2 that will put up WR1 numbers, but I wouldnt feel comfortable with him as my WR1. Some great weeks, some average or sub-par ones. That said, Id be giddy to have him as my WR2.

Hello wingnut, on a week to week basis so far there are only two WRs that are producing better than TG, if I had him (and I've tried to get him) I'd feel very comfortable. He and Bledsoe has something working even with Elderado on the field. When TG scored his two TDs this week Elderado was on the field.I'm not total disagreeing with you other than I'd feel very comfortable with him as my #1.

Again, I have Elderado in my redraft not Glenn.

 
I've always thought highly of Glenn but then again I watched him play at OSU as I'm a Buckeye fanboy and I probably over value him. This year, in our draft, I picked him up in the 9th round after I already had four running backs, a quarterback and three other wide recievers. I thought there was either something wrong with him or everyone thought T.O. would get all the yards and td's in Dallas this year.

This is probably common more than not. I didn't draft him because he was drafted in the 3rd round and I was looking to get him either in the 4th or 5th.

I know hes right up there near the top right now, but I see him finishing a bit lower than WR3 - more to the tune of WR 7-13, which is indeed WR1 territory but it seems like he has some 100yd 1 or2td games, then he has some 45yd, 0td clunkers in between.Last year he had four 100yd games, he had 2tds in one, 1 td in 2, and 0tds in one. He also had 7 games with less than 50yds (scord 1td in 2 of those). So you get a few big weeks, and alot of mediocre ones. Eldorado being there can only help obviously, but I worry more about Bledsoes up-and-down performances more than I do Glenns talent.

If he were my WR1, my team better have 4 good RBs, an elite QB and elite TE. But nobody here really drafted him as their WR1, did they? Doubtful. Again, I agree he may be a must start, but matchups should probably be looked at closely according to his performance last year.

:goodposting: 1. Agreed

2. Agreed

So far the OL has been playing much better than I'd expected, hopefully they'll continue to protect Bledsoe. I believe all WR will have there ups and downs (See Chad or any other WR for that matter).

TG has outperformed his ADP, he's (at least at this point) outplaying M. Harrison, Chad, Fitz and Holt. Yet he still is not getting the respect he deserve. He's outperforming S. Smith but Smith has been hurt.

**Disclaimer**

This is from a fantasy football perspective. This would also depend on your scoring system, but my I still believe he's the most underrated WR bar none.

 
I acquired him last week at the cost of one Dominic Rhodes. I'm pretty happy with the way that worked out so far.

Of course, now I have a cluster##### of WR to choose from each week, but I think I will be starting Glenn more often than not at this point.

If Glenn finishes top 15 WR I will be happy. About where I expect him to be.

Same here. I guess its a good problem to have, but picking the wrong guy any given week can drive you NUTS. Nobody's been biting on any trade talks in my league so I guess Ill just have to stand pat with my guys and hope for the best.

i dunno... i think it's pretty funny... especially when it's in reply to chest-thumping.
exactly. i don't know what people are expecting when they play the "look at me, i was right" card.

A pat on the back? A few we're not worthy's perhaps?
 
He's always worked well with Bledsoe, this summer especially. Nabbed him in my hometowner and in the FB contest (unfortunately other schleps did me in, I think, in Week 4. Sigh.)

He'll be a Top 20 wideout and keep starting him until you see proof not to.

 
Glenn is very underrated. He is a playmaker with amazing hands.

Andre Johnson is also vastly underrated right now. Seems like everybody wrote him off after last season. He's the leading WR in my league! And to think I was almost kicking myself for "wasting a pick" on the guy.

:goodposting: :thumbup: Nice call on Glenn to this point. Although I do believe Owens will end up as the #1WR in Dallas this year...and then some. Owens lack of work with Bledsoe this preseason has hurt him some in the early stages of the season. I fully expect the pair to be clicking on all cylinders in the next few weeks thru the end of the season.Parcells absolutely stole his former player Glenn from Green Bay for a 5th (or was it 6th?) round pick. Glenn's only real problem has been his inability to stay injury free throughout most of his career. Bledsoe's familiarity and ability to click with Glenn is huge...but Owens is simply the best WR in the NFL and won't be held down much longer.
:goodposting: I guess time tell, I believe the more balls Owens drop the more Bledsoe will go to Glenn. But he's still as reliable as it gets. I'm not saying that he's better than Owens, but he's highly underrated.
 
Certain NFL WR2's that put up WR1 type FF numbers. Glenn just happens to be the best one so far.

Premium Level:

Reggie Wayne

TJ Housh

Terry Glenn

Anquan Boldin* (fitz depending on who you prefer)

Mid Level:

Colston

Reggie Williams

Keyshawn

Amani Toomer

Low level:

Marty Booker

All of these guys are drafted behind the #1 guy, but all can be #1's in their own right (premium level) or 1.5's with confidence (Mid Level). I am sure there are more examples, but I always like to look at the #2 in these cases because they *usually* represent value.

I vote for Isaac Bruce.

I think Glenn's numbers will go down significantly as Owens heats up. I only base this on what the guy opposite Owens has done historically. (Not too mention Witten--dang it :rant: )

 
Easy... MARVIN HARRISON...

As quoted from an IndyStar.com article:

"He was the fastest receiver ever to 600 receptions (16 games faster than Herman Moore). He was the fastest ever to 700 (25 faster than Jerry Rice). The fastest ever to 800 (23 faster than Rice). The fastest ever to 900 (19 faster than Rice)."

"With three catches Sunday against the Jets, Harrison, who has 949 in his career, will pass former Buffalo star Andre Reed into fourth place on the all-time reception list, behind only Rice (1,549), Cris Carter (1,101) and Tim Brown (1,094)."

"Since we're rolling out numbers, here's another one: If Harrison catches a single pass (and we're assuming he will), he will tie Marshall Faulk's NFL record for receptions in 158 straight games to start a career."

Sure, there are players with bigger numbers this year RIGHT NOW, but longevity and consistency are really what counts here if you ask the question "most underrated WR in all of football"....

And consider this... Marvin Harrison as never been on the cover of ESPN magazine or SPORTS ILLUSTRATED... instead they put freaks of nature like TO and Keyshawn.

Part of this, is because of Harrison's personality. He is a class act. Harrison "never celebrates touchdowns, never misses practices, never argues with officials, never woofs at opponents, and never acts like a diva."

AND HE IS A STUD!

Dont count him out this season, but when looking at the big picture there is a solid arguement to say he is the "most underrated WR in all of football".

No one gets more justified hype than Harrison, he's not underrated, he's one of the best in the game.

Relative to others near his level of play, he is underrated.
 
I won't argue the Glenn pick, or even the Coles reference. Both definitely fit the profile of underrated WR's. However since Tex listed his homer pick, I'm going with mine ....

5 1,000 yard seasons

7 seasons seasons with at least 5 TD's

4 seasons topping 70 receptions

Career 14.6 ypc average ....

Amani Toomer. The guy gets no love. Everyone wrote him off after the Giants 2004 season when he was held without a TD and gained only 750 yards, conveniently forgetting that he played the entire season on a balky hamstring but never complained about it to the media. The guy is a class act and a consistent performer.

The problem with Toomer getting any recognition is that he's completely average every single season. Here's the other side of those stats....1 season with more than 1200 yards0 seasons with more than 8 TDsSure he's a nice guy and a decent WR but he's not exactly a game-changer.
 
If Terry Glenn is your #2, that's fine.

But your #2 is outproducing your number one with no let-up in sight.

I've just submitted to calling him my number one. Why not? He's sick, and he's getting me like 15-18 a game.

He is consistently in the top 5 of Cheatsheets. He is in the top 5 in yards and TDs. How is he not a viable #1? just because you didn't draft him as your number one? I'll trade Boldin or Moss for Glenn any day.

I have to disagree with the "Class Act"........I partied with Harrison , ate with Harrison, at the same table at a function in AC and bs'ed with him and a couple of his lackies (and he treated them as so)... he was a jackass if I ever met one. His on the field persona is much different than his off the field attitude...grant it he has never got in legal trouble off the field, but he is not someone who does not deserve the class-act or nice guy lable IMO..... and I was shocked by it :eek:
 
I just traded him for a 2008 first round rookie pick.

I have Santana Moss, M Colston, M Jones, L Fitz, N Burleson, & A Toomer

Sure, there are players with bigger numbers this year RIGHT NOW, but longevity and consistency are really what counts here if you ask the question "most underrated WR in all of football"....

And consider this... Marvin Harrison as never been on the cover of ESPN magazine or SPORTS ILLUSTRATED... instead they put freaks of nature like TO and Keyshawn.

Part of this, is because of Harrison's personality. He is a class act :no: . Harrison "never celebrates touchdowns, never misses practices, never argues with officials, never woofs at opponents, and never acts like a diva."

AND HE IS A STUD!

Dont count him out this season, but when looking at the big picture there is a solid arguement to say he is the "most underrated WR in all of football".

No one gets more justified hype than Harrison, he's not underrated, he's one of the best in the game.
Relative to others near his level of play, he is underrated.
I have to disagree with the "Class Act"........I partied with Harrison , ate with Harrison, at the same table at a function in AC and bs'ed with him and a couple of his lackies (and he treated them as so)... he was a jackass if I ever met one. His on the field persona is much different than his off the field attitude...grant it he has never got in legal trouble off the field, but he is not someone who does not deserve the class-act or nice guy lable IMO..... and I was shocked by it :eek:
Marvin wouldn't sign my football! He sux!!!!!!!Really, now. Nobody cares what you thought of Harrison when you 'partied' with him.

He doesn't rip coaches or teammates. He doesn't get in trouble with the law. He doesn't pout when he doesn't get the ball. Doesn't show up opponents, taunt, or provide bulletin board material. Doesn't behave in a way that says 'look at me!'. Doesn't get into episodes off the field that bring embarrassment to himself or the team.

If that isn't a class football player, I don't know what is.

 
Easy... MARVIN HARRISON...

As quoted from an IndyStar.com article:

"He was the fastest receiver ever to 600 receptions (16 games faster than Herman Moore). He was the fastest ever to 700 (25 faster than Jerry Rice). The fastest ever to 800 (23 faster than Rice). The fastest ever to 900 (19 faster than Rice)."

"With three catches Sunday against the Jets, Harrison, who has 949 in his career, will pass former Buffalo star Andre Reed into fourth place on the all-time reception list, behind only Rice (1,549), Cris Carter (1,101) and Tim Brown (1,094)."

:confused: you president of his fan club?

supposedly he choked a teen in hawaii who wanted an autograph, while his goons punched a 13 yr old in the face... if he's a jerk, he's a jerk. deal with it. but you can still leave his poster up on your wall if you want to. :rolleyes:

Naw, I'm not a fan. Bring some documentation that he's a bad guy and I'll concede the point.

But 'supposedly he did this' and 'he was a jerk at a party' doesn't cut it.

Hmmm...someone said his bodyguards roughed up some teens back in January.Yup, looks like proof Marvin Harrison is a BAD MAN. :goodposting:

 
Maybe you should also post the follow up story showing that the case fell apart when the police started to dig.

No Charges Filed

Edited to add, notice how quickly civil charges were filed? They were seeking damages before the police had even finished investigating.

Yeah, this looks like a load of crap. When something like this happens once, to a player who otherwise has a VERY clean record, I ignore it.

I have never heard of Harrison being a jerk locally here in Indianapolis. Quiet the opposite.

Also, my original post of bringing him up, was to just say that he gets VERY little attention compared to the other few players who play at his level (or just below it).
