Need a poll. Maynard, the Hall of Famer. If Toon hadn't gotten hurt, or Sauer hadn't quit early, they might very well have ended up being the best, but they did, and that's why it's Maynard.
That would be quite a task, and you didn't list them all. There are at least 3 from just last season that aren't on there.
^^ I agree!! I still say Toon was the most talented WR we have ever had. This is where I totally agree with WB. I also personally think Sauer was better than Maynard and was heading for the HOF had he not cut his career short. Toon was also headed for the HOF before injuries cut his career short :sad:
I never got to see Maynard play other than a couple of old highlight plays. Toon is far and away the best one that I can remember.
Don Maynard. He is in the hall of fame for a reason. I was wondering why Johnny Lam Jones was omitted from the list?
Great player, always made clutch catches, had great moves and hands, but not great speed, which was amazing because he always beat the best cornerbacks in the AFL deep...

Toon is easily the most talented and complete WR we've ever had. I sincerely believe he'd be considered among the all time greats had he not suffered from the concussions and been able to play on some better teams.
I agree with you 100% on this. Al Toon was a great player and it is a shame to see what happened to him.
Don't be silly...I love Chrebet as much as the next guy...but there is no way he is better than Key or Moss. Al Toon is the best I ever did see...and I'm a big fan of Rob Moore.
^ Yeah Rob Moore was friggin' awesome! Could you imagine had Toon stayed healthy having Moore and Toon!
Maynard first. Toon had the better talent than Walker, but Walker made the greater overall contributions.
