We've been blessed to watch some tremendous pass catchers.

Steve Largent
Brian Blades
Joey Galloway
Darrell Jackson
Bobby Engram
Doug Baldwin
Tyler Lockett
D. K. Metcalf

None have been better in a single year than Jaxon Smith-Njigba

I’m biased because he’s my all time favorite player, but Koren Robinson’s 2002 season really gets overlooked among our best receiving seasons. 78 catches for 1,240 yards and 5 TD’s had him looking like he’d be a weapon for years to come…which unfortunately didn’t end up being the case.

Of course Largent is my all time favorite Seahawks Receiver.
One of my other favorite receiver was Daryl "deep heat" Turner from the 80s. Brother had a fifth and sixth gear but had hands of stone and played in the shadow of Largent when he was in his prime.
He had 101 receptions with 36 touchdowns. That is an insane stat. If you ask me. Check him out on YouTube.

Koren's 2nd year had me pumped, I thought for sure he would become a stud, but what ever he had wrong with his eyes really derailed him, that visor he wore was odd I've never seen another player ever wear that since him..

It's always been, to me, Steve Largent.. and some others, and soon to be Steve and JSN

Largent has always been number one to me for many reasons, but JSN is right up there and if he makes a HOF career here (very possible) and doesn’t go diva he could catch him over time.

We've been blessed down through the years with great WRs, for sure.

Not sure I would put Galloway on that list, though. Seems like he only had one route and not the best attitude. That's why we traded him away. 🤷‍♂️

Yep, I think when it's all said and done, it will be Largent and JSN who go down as the greatest WR's in Seahawks history.
I love me some Angry Doug, but JSN is going to surpass him by a long shot, imo.

LARGENT
JSN
DOUG
TYLER

I don't disagree, and I did think about adding him to the list, but his career was too much of a mixed bag.

Galloway was always one of my favorite guys, and since it's my list he stays in!

Angry DB made some of the most insane highlight-reel catches I've ever seen; he played sand-lot scramble ball with Russ extremely well. Engram seemed like one of the best 3rd-down outlets.

But JSN receiving from Sam makes catches look so fluid and easy. What a privilege to watch!

Steve Lagent will always be my favorite...best Seahawks memories growing up..even if his records are broken, the memories forever go on. Bobby Engram and Lockett are my next favorites....and angry Doug...yes, we have been fortunate with WR's and I hope that will always be the case. JSN is quickly climbing up that hill to be another favorite. DK...he was good, but didn't quite do it for me like I had hoped.

I LOVE JSN but for now my favorite is Largent and then Baldwin. I suspect JSN will soon surpass Angry Doug.

I thought the same, until he screwed us in the SB and then, I really wanted him off the team.
