Eric Decker, Gophers WR

I just can't say enough about that guy. Day in and day out, he always seems ot able to perform. It's mind blowing really, he's been double-covered and triple-covered, and whether it be through his sheer will or the stubborness of quarterback Adam Weber, Decker is among the national leaders in catches and recieving yard.

I mean I'm still trying to get over how this guy can even make be so good. He's got a good wide reciever build (6'3, 215) has solid speed (4.5) and good hands. Yes he's an exceedingly good route runner and has great hands, but no reciever should be able to be this good. Jerry Rice was the only real star that I can think of that could do what Decker did, except Jerry did have exceptional speed. The thing that I think puts Decker apart from all others is how determined he is. Also the fact that your quarterback seemingly depends on you to boost up his stats certainly helps.
