The NFL's 11 best slot receivers (10. Amon-Ra. St. Brown, Detroit Lions: The Lions stole St. Brown out of USC in the fourth round of the 2021 draft, and it hasn’t taken him long to become the go-to guy for one of the NFL’s most creative passing games. This was especially true from the slot, where St. Brown caught 61 passes on 79 targets for 596 yards and a touchdown. Remember what Greg said about receivers who know how to maximize ball placement for opportunities after the catch? St. Brown showed a test case of that with this 28-yard catch against the Bears in Week 17. St. Brown leveraged cornerback Josh Blackwell right off the line of scrimmage, and this was over for Blackwell by the time St. Brown made his first cut. Not that St. Brown is going to get a lot of explosive opportunities with Jared Goff as his quarterback (that’s not slander; Goff completed 23 passes of 20 or more air yards in 2022; that ranked 16th in the league), but he’s perfectly capable of winning deep on Quarters-beaters like this up-and-out combination with D.J. Chark against the Eagles in Week 1. The Lions have a lot of interesting weapons in a passing game that should continue to expand under the radar in 2023, but until and unless, St. Brown will continue to be the top dog — and that’s especially true from the slot.): https://touchdownwire.usatoday.com/lists/nfl-slot-receivers-cooper-kupp-justin-jefferson-davante-adams/
The best player ever for all 32 NFL teams (Detroit Lions: RB Barry Sanders: Sanders never had a team in Detroit that matched his exceptional abilities, but it didn’t matter. A cavalcade of defenders often met Sanders in the backfield, and he’d turn the play into a backbreaking gain anyway. He made a living out of turning nothing into the extraordinary. In a decade with the Lions, Sanders qualified for 10 Pro Bowls and 10 different First or Second-Team All-Pro selections. If not for a perceived “early” retirement in 1998, he would’ve likely even (temporarily) possessed the all-time rushing yards record.): https://ftw.usatoday.com/lists/nfl-best-players-all-time-32-teams-tom-brady-jerry-rice-walter-payton
