10. Plaxico Burress
New York Giants
A favorite of TTCS’s own Matt Olsen, Burress’ teammates backed up his prediction that they would win the Super Bowl. Just for the record, Olsen doesn’t practice either.

9. TJ Houshmandzadeh
Cincinnati Bengals
…championship.

8. Calvin Johnson
Detroit Lions
Arguably the NFL’s top all-around athlete, Johnson figures to one of the league’s top receivers as soon as Jon Kitna decides to stop playing football.

7. Larry Fitzgerald
Arizona Cardinals

Being a ball boy for the Minnesota Vikings growing up, Fitzgerald learned from the best in Chris Carter and Randy Moss. Of the millions and millions of horrible things he could have taken away from his time with Moss, Cardinals fans are lucky he chose catching touchdowns.

6. Andre Johnson
Houston Texans

If Johnson could ever just stay healthy, he would be one of the five best receivers in the NFL. So says my fantasy team.

5. Roy Williams
Detroit Lions

What do Roy Williams and Mr. Pink from Reservoir Dogs have in common? Neither believes in tipping.

4. Braylon Edwards
Cleveland Browns
Who knew what a real quarterback could do for a wide receiver? Edwards’ 16 touchdowns made him one of the breakout players of last season.

3. Reggie Wayne
Indianapolis Colts

Wayne is not only the best second option at receiver in the NFL, but he’s probably one of the only members of the 2000 Miami Hurricanes that isn’t currently incarcerated.

2. Steve Smith
Carolina Panthers
It’s a shame the Panthers can’t clone the little fireball and put him at every position. Despite his small stature, I would take Smith over any other pass catcher on this list in a fight.

1. Chad Johnson
Cincinnati Bengals

While some awesome dude from TUP lobbied for the Bears to trade for the disgruntled receiver about a month ago, it appears the Bengals will be keeping him around. It’s a shame, Ocho Cinco and the Sex Cannon could have been a match made in heaven.
