    I understand not agreeing but this simply isn't true

    Fuller's first TARGET came with like 5 minutes left in the 2nd quarter. I have a hard time seeing him as a top wr when he doens't feel like a constant threat to the defense, or someone you can feed targets to, or someone you can force the ball to when trying to convert a crucial 3rd down. I don't think he stat pads, but it's like Mercilus where he only shows up big a few games a year, and then has a pretty average floor of play the rest of the time. And then you have the injury factor to worry about.

    Fuller's TD catches this season:

    #1 against the Steelers made the score 21-17 in 2nd quarter
    #2 against the Vikings made the score 13-17 early in the 3rd quarter
    #3 against the Jags made the score 20-7 early in the 4th quarter
    #4 against the Titans made the score 30-29 in the 4th quarter
    #5 against the Packers made the score 20-35 late in the game
    #6 against the Jags made the score 27-16 early in the 3rd quarter

    1 garbage time TD this season against the Packers.

    Clearly joking but still his impact isn't felt like top WRs.... I'm sure he commands attention and all but he's still nowhere near a top WR IMO...

    Your lol was not at all indicative that your comment was a joke. It appeared to me it was an lol that Fuller was stat padding. All that research literally took less than 5 minutes.

    The entire reason they drafted Fuller was to have speed opposite Hopkins and open up the field. Now they have speed and no Hopkins.

    Not at all. Dhop called Fuller making the pro bowl when he was training with Watson and Fuller, after the trade went down.
    If anything it should make you more upset.
    Don't sign Murray, Johnson and Cobb and
    You could have had Dhop, Fuller and Cooks! You add a 4th rounder to a 3rd rounder and the Rams are giving you Cooks. Rams wanted him out.

    I think he meant him being present is spectacular.

    Proved the point that 5/6 TD receptions were not in garbage time

    No. Fuller is a nice player but he's not a Hopkins level replacement. He's more effective with someone across with him.
