Not taking anything away from Willie but Holt is possibly the most underrated player in league history.
For the decade from '00-'09 Holt had more receptions and receiving yards than any WR in the league. He led the league in receiving yards twice ('00, '03) and finished in the top 10 for 8 straight years ('00-'07). In '00 he became just the second player in NFL history to have over 1500 receiving yards and average over 19 per catch. He is 7th All-Time in receiving yards per game.
He recorded 2 of the top 17 seasons for receiving yards ('10 1695 [10th], '03 1657 [17th]). He is tied with 4 other players for most 1600+ seasons (no player has more than two)
38 of the 49 players who have over 10,000 career receiving yards played in 2000 or later. Among those 38 Holt is 10th in yards per reception and 5th in yards per game.
