It was a runner’s game , more like a game of rugby than the game we know today. Running backs dominated the early years of the game of football, but over the years there has come a paradigm shift. Quarterbacks slowly stole the spotlight and the pass has overtaken the run as the dominant offensive force in football. With the advent of the passing era we have quarterbacks putting up numbers unheard of only a decade ago and this has created the need for dynamic receivers, like never before, to catch those passes.The greatest players in team sports make the players around them into better players. This is true in nearly every sport. There have been players who had great personal careers and lit up the highlight films, but without help from elsewhere on the field it was all for naught. Many teams are lucky to have one good receiver on their team, but the teams who have been privileged to have two or more routinely find themselves with a high-scoring offense. With the shifted focus more on the passing game today there is a need for more and more excellent wide receiver tandems to emerge in the NFL. The league already has the likes of DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon racking up the numbers in Washington , Roddy White and Julio Jones in Atlanta, “Megatron” Calvin Johnson and Golden Tate in Detroit, a couple great guys named Alshon Jeffrey and Brandon Marshall in Chicago and the list could go on. We have an unprecedented amount of talent at the wide receiver position today, and who knows who else will yet emerge and take the spotlight.In last year's draft we saw perhaps the greatest rookie class of wide receivers in the league's history. Mike Evans, Odell Beckham, Kelvin Benjamin and Sammy Watkins all enjoyed tremendous seasons , yet only one of these guys was on a playoff team (Benjamin in Carolina). As good as these receivers are, their teams will probably want to add a formidable partner alongside them.Here we have a memorial to the greatest wide receiver tandems in the history of the NFL. It’s not quite Vince Young declaring the 2011 Eagles to be a “Dream Team,” but it’s close.Cornerback Greedy Williams, drafted by Cleveland in round two on Friday night, commemorated his arrival by making a bold claim in a conference call with reporters.“I know one thing,” Williams said , via Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com, “that the Browns are going to the Super Bowl this year. That’s a fact.”While it may indeed happen, calling it a “fact” is a stretch. And it overlooks the fact that there are plenty of great teams in the AFC, teams that easily can keep the Browns, who haven’t even been to the playoffs since Williams was five years old, from achieving their goal.Williams also boasted that he and Denzel Ward “can lock down those receivers ,” and that “[p]ossibly we can be the two Pro Bowl corners in the league playing for the same team.”Look, it takes confidence to thrive in the NFL. Confidence to the point of, at times, delusion. Williams may have crossed the line into full-blown delusion on the night he became a Brown, and when he finally faces NFL-caliber competition, one or more of the receivers he’s trying to cover may remind him of that.
