I’d actually put a lot of receivers over him simple because of his lack of size and questionable hands at times.
With that being said….if I made an all-time team I’d actually put him as my 3rd guy to complement Rice and Moss.

Really?? He isn't anywhere near HOF status and may never get there. If you'd pick him over Owens and Fitzgerald, that's on you. How old are you? Do you realize there was football in the past? Otis Taylor is infinitely more qualified.

If he got 1k more yards this year (unlikely) he'd have to average 1,525 yards over the next 3 years to be #3 in career yards.
He'll be 31 in about 5 months.
He would need 4,575 yards to pass TO.
Hines Ward, JT Smith, Steve Largent, James Lofton, Andre Johnson and Keenan McCardell all got between 4k and 5k yards from their year 31 to the end of their career, but every one had to play at least 5 years to do it.
The most yards a player has ever gotten from their 31 to 34 year was Roddy White with 3,489.
The most yards a player has ever gotten from their 31 to 33 year was Torry Holt with 2,707.
