So we’re going to start this post with a little hint on how I view wide receivers.  There are a lot of extremely talented receivers in the game but there are really only a few that can dictate the game itself.  Calvin Johnson is one of those guys.  So is Larry Fitzgerald.  They catch everything that is thrown near them, essentially.  They have the ability to make guys like Shaun Hill and John Skelton look almost decent.  If that’s not talent, I don’t know what is.  Now I’m not gonna lie and say Robert Meachem is of that level but there are truly few who are anyway.  What I WILL say, though, is on the other side of the spectrum you can have a good to great quarterback making decent players look like superstars.  Eli Manning has made 1000 yard receivers from guys like Steve Smith.  No, not that Steve Smith.  THAT Steve Smith.  All this to say, quarterbacks can make or break the ‘talent level’ of some wide receivers and so can the system they play in.  With that, let’s take a closer look at why I’m reachin for Meachem (even reachin for rhymes too, apparently).
