These lists are always subjective but it got me thinking that in all the years the Giants have been around, we really have never had what one would call a great WR.
Sure we had Homer Jones, Armani Toomer, and a brief OBJ but we probably have had a HOF at most other positions but never even close at WR.
Maybe it's about time we did.
I HATE TO INCLUDE THE WORD NASTY< BUT THAT IS PART OF BEING A WINNING FOOTBALL TEAM.

five super bowl appearances without one.  Jones was a phenom; Toomer was as solid as can be.  There are 21 other positions out there too [plus ST's].  Our non-HOF WR's have often come up big when it mattered and we've had some good TE's and rb's to offset the absence of a jerry rice type.   Give me Amani 2.0 and another Lombardi Trophy, please.

True, but neither did the Pats throughout their six Super Bowl run.

They did briefly have Randy Moss, but they didn't win a Super Bowl with him.
