I can catch the ball better than you

We all know ESPN knows everything when it comes to sports. They can predict games with ease, without hesitation tell the viewers who will win the MVP, or rank players as if they're cattle (I kid, I kid). Well now they have an article ranking the top 64 wide receivers in the NFL.

Before I get to the Ravens on the list, let me say this, you cannot have a ranking of the top receivers in the NFL with Marvin Harrison out of the top 10. Yeah that's right, Harrison is ranked 13th by the worldwide leader in sports. I understand that he was injured last year and is getting up there in age, but as long as he can hobble from hashmark to hashmark he will be in the top 3 of NFL receivers.

Okay on to the Ravens. Derrick Mason heads up the list at #41. With 103 catches in 2007, but a lack of other impressive stats I respect his ranking. Mark Clayton is next at #49. He had a rough year because of injury, but proved his potential in 2006. I do have a problem with Clayton being ranked directly behind the Viking's Sidney Rice. Rice is unproven and has minimal experience. Obviously I am biased, but I think you have to give the edge to Clayton. Finally, Demetrius Williams rounds out the Raven's receiving core at #57. I'm just happy that ESPN and the rest of the country have taken notice of Williams athletic ability. He was the Raven's only deep threat in 2007 and earned his spot on this list.
