What receiver is the best at the spectacular catches?

Personally, I like Baldwin. I feel like all of our receivers make these catches quite regularly.

Tie between Tate and Baldwin, IMO. Percy is absolutely magic after the catch, but I can't recall seeing a whole lot of highlight reel catches by him.

I know Rice sometimes makes really, really difficult passes, but time after time it's Baldwin.

Pure acrobatics it's Tate.

Staying inbounds style it's Baldwin or Rice.

Hasn't Baldwin had just as many, if not more, of those; on top of more critical 3rd down conversions?

Probably Doug, we're lucky we have such reliable hands though. Even our TE's. Remember Evan Moore?

I'd have said Golden last year though. And on this year's form, Doug would have caught that TD in Arizona.

Tate's combination of ball skills, high-pointing ability and hand strength is second to none.

This.... Sidney has had some extremely difficult catches last season especially in the playoffs. He's already had a couple this year as well, however Doug has had the best so far this year. But i voted for Sidney if we're talking pure catching, and not run/moves after catch.

I voted for Baldwin even though he bobbles routine passes sometimes. That toe tapper he had against (Carolina?) was the most incredible sideline catch I've ever seen.

Tate deserves votes as well. The best catch of the season in 2012 might have been the bomb that Tate caught against Miami inside the 5 yard line, where he had to basically crawl over the defender.

Rice and Miller made fantastic catches look routine.

Kearse is outstanding at high pointing, attacking the football, and laying out for catches. Even the drop-prone Kearse at UW was known for making incredible catches.

Sidney Rice doesn't jump much. Some of his sideline catches would look very different if another receiver was the target - any of our other receivers would simply jump and meet the ball before it's several feet out of bounds horizontally. That's also the play style that makes him easier to get interceptions against.

Baldwin makes the ones that just seem improbable. Tate makes the ones that make you step back and go "Did you see that"?

Rice gets his when he's practically uncovered; Baldwin gets his when he's got a dude draped all over him and usually on third down.

Baldwin & Tate are most clutch, and of recently Baldwin has been making some crazy sideline catches, but I think Rice's catches are the "prettiest".

At Sark's first open practice in '09 I had the opportunity to stand on the sideline during some WR drills. He can catch those outside/back-shoulder passes as he's falling to the ground pretty constently.

It's insane how every single one of our receivers has a knack for making amazing catches. Hell, even Sherman had that sideline pick last year in Arizona.
