Andre Johnson
Career Stats: 193 games played (187 starts), 1,062 receptions, 14,185 yards, 70 TD
In their first two decades as a team, the Houston Texans have not had a lot of success. Sadly, this means that Andre Johnson’s abilities were essentially wasted. Johnson was an absolute force for the majority of his career at 6-foot-3 and 230 pounds. Johnson had an uncommon combination of stature and speed; defenses frequently found it difficult to keep up with the receiver once he took off. Johnson, a two-time All-Pro, twice topped the league in both receptions and receiving yards (in 2006 and 2008). (2008-09). It is unfortunate that Johnson was never paired with a top quarterback.

Fred Biletnikoff
Career Stats: 190 games played (161 starts), 589 receptions, 8,974 yards, 76 TD
This Pro Football and College Football Hall of Famer is the reason why the top collegiate receiver receives the Biletnikoff Award. Biletnikoff, a four-time Pro Bowler, caught 76 touchdown passes throughout the course of his career. With his sure hands, Biletnikoff made numerous daring receptions that would have made Odell Beckham Jr. envious. His performance in the postseason also solidified his place in Raiders history. Early in his career, Biletnikoff tallied eight touchdowns in six games, including a contest against the longtime division foe Kansas City Chiefs in which he amassed 180 yards and three scores. While playing for probably the greatest Raider squad of all time in 1976, he finally earned that coveted Super Bowl ring.
