Evans and Godwin both finished in the top 10 in yardage in 2019. And they still went out and brought in Antonio Brown.
He also had a prime Gronk and a pre-murder Aaron Hernandez for a few years in New England, which was a pretty revolutionary offense.
And while perhaps not a traditional superstar, people may forget that Wes Welker had the following reception totals in New England...
112, 111, 123, 122, 118
And here's his yardage totals...1,175, 1,165, 1,348, 1,569, 1,334.
If I asked you if this stat-line was superstar level what would say? 122 rec, 1,569 yards, and 9 TD's? Cuz that''s a Wes Welker stat-line in New England post Randy Moss.
Lastly, Tom Brady is the greatest QB of all time. Hands down. It's not even a contest anymore. So he's probably not the best guy to bring up when trying to determing the weapons needed to succeed in this leage. The guy has been successful with everyone he's played with for the last 20 years.
I have to laugh when people cite Brady. If Burrow even accomplishes 1/3 of what Brady did, he'd still be a 1st ballot HoF'er.
