Which is one of the elements I used to dispute the assertion that "it's not even close" between JB and CD.

Just liked I'd use return skills when comparing Antonio Bryant to other greats.

Dillon averaged 26.6 yards/KR as a Bengal.  Brooks only averaged a meager 17.0 as a Bengal.  Brooks' best year for KR average as a Bengal was '87, and he would have only tied for 14th best if he had enough returns to qualify.  In Dillon's rookie season, he averages 30.3 yards/return, which would have been #1 if he had enough to qualify.  

The comparison here is laughable, because Brooks was a mediocre return man even at his best.  Dillon averaged nearly 10 yards a return more as a Bengal than Brooks.  The only reason Brooks has more raw stats there is he was expendable enough to the offense to risk more on KR duty, while Dillon was too key to risk injury.
