Yeah, I thought thats why you chose 1000. Its a reasonable view. But when i look at those WRs a lot of them just strike me as "B" level or "good solid" WRs. Plus of course, there would be more 1000 yd WRs if all the 900 level WRs had played 16 games, etc.
Anyway, I'm not saying your approach is unreasonable. But my own view is that your approach ends up mixing some "good" and "very good" WRs together rather than separating them.

Okay, Except my point is that some good B level, solid WRs break through and become reliable, consistent go to receivers...#1s...
and it's probably because there's more to them than meets the eye.
Instincts, sense of the game, understanding defenses, study, tenacity...something, that allows a team to go, okay set this guy up to be a primary target every game, build it around the things he does best. And then what happens is the guy does that at a level that works pretty much every game.
So see it;'s precisely my point that some B level talents, in terms of measurables and physical skills, do in fact regularly become tough consistent producers of the kind I am talking about.
So to me the talent level, in terms of what you measure with your eyes, has nothing to do with it.
Again, that brings us back to the "elite" thing. Most if not all elite talents become #1s, but not all #1s are elite.
And yes a guy you would call a "B level" player can in fact be a #1 and in fact it happens all the time.
SO you have to figure, there's more there than meets the eye.
