Best WR or SB this Century?

[peg_city]

I've listed all the 1000 yard WR/SB (let me know if I missed anyone).

[The Zipp]

best pure reciever in that list is prob Lawler - should have been a number 4 guy in the NFL

terrance edwards always underrated

demski is clutch and has some recency bias

bobby g and AB3 man those guys were also good

Geroy had more time in BC but he might be on this list.

this will take some thought/ discussion - great post

Best talent or time in Winnipeg? A few players like Lawler were only here for a short time. Demski has the longest run at a high level.

I guess, based on their time in Winnipeg, which player would you want to be a roster for the 2026 season? I think if we look at a players total career, Geroy will get votes, even though he wasn't memorable in Winnipeg. So, only based on their blue bomber career.....

Then Demski is the clear winner.

Then Demski is the clear winner.

especially given the non-import status he gives teams

i still say lawler is the best pure talent on that list, then Geroy.

Joe Poplawski #71 should be on the list, no question, another NAT impact reciever we had that helped us win some Cups, but Demski is the clear winner here

Derrick Armstrong would be my pick for best combination of talent and production as a Bomber.

He didn't play at any point this century.

Then Demski is the clear winner.

We might be getting lost in what the definition of the best bomber could be. If you look at total impact, it's demski, but that's not how I read the question.

I'm thinking who is the best WR/SB when he was with the bombers. To me the answer is easily Lawler. He's the best of second best receiver of his generation (2019-present).

Probably something like:

Milt
Lawler
Shoen
Bruce
Edwards
Demski

I might actually put demski further down the list, now that I think about it.

Should be able to change your vote now

Terrence Edwards was a more talented pure receiver than Nic Demski head to head. Talking about a guy who had 5 1000-yard seasons on some pretty average teams. Demski has him beat in versatility without question (800 rushing yards is super impressive for a receiver) and he gets a bump for being Canadian too.

Better receiver? Edwards. Better player? Pretty close.

[blue_gold_84]

Edwards got my vote. He played on some pretty inept teams (2008, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013), catching passes from some awful QB carousels (see previously listed seasons), and still managed to put up really impressive statistics. Imagine if he'd been able to play with Collaros, or even Nichols.

An underrated workhorse who showed up every day and led by example, IMO.

James Murphy was outstanding.

And then there was Ernie Pitts. Great WR and DB.
