Davante is absolutely one of the greatest, but I don't know if I'd say greatest in the league. There's a few guy's I'd pick over him but not to many. Julio, Nuk, Mike Evans, and Cheetah are the first couple to come to mind. I will also say Thomas from my Saints, but I wouldn't pick him over the other guys if I had a chance. A.J Green from TN is also a solid receiver and so it T.Y Hilton even though the Colts struggled a bit the past couple seasons.
