Just because you haven't heard of the names doesn't mean the players are bad. If Jamison Crowder were a Bengal, we'd have people touting him as a weapon. In 41 games, he's produced 165 catches, 1871 yards and 9 TDs.
In Marvin Jones first 41 games, he produced 137 catches, 1814 yards and 15 TDs. (that's not counting games he didn't play). Chris Thompson was having a season that would make Gio proud, before breaking his leg this week.
Jordan Reed was drafted the same year as Eifert and has missed 13 less games (and counting) than Eifert. Vernon Davis has proven a capable replacement. I don't know anyone who would laugh at DJax and Pierre Garcon as weapons. They both have multiple 1000 yard seasons on their resume's, and DJax is one of the league's most respected deep threats. Both signed big contracts this offseason. That was viewed as one of the best tandems in the NFL before they left.

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
