Yes, he had talent but so does every player in the league. His career numbers are a Julio Jones season. Yes, I know that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but not too much. If I knew nothing about the guy, I would think he was on a path to be a lock for the Hall of Fame with the way a lot fans talk about the him.
Again, I'm not even bringing his personal life into this. His best season was 600 yards and 9 TDs. The way he is talked about and held in such high regard blows my mind. I'm sure someone will say I'm being disrespectful, but his stats don't justify the hype this guy gets. If/when you do take the personal stuff into account, it's even worse.
He didn’t have to put up huge numbers, he played with Chad and TJ. He was a nice compliment to them though, and was great on the deep balls.
