It always pains me when someone talks about Fitzgerald in a different tier than Johnson. I think the two were very similar, but Fitzgerald was in a much better environment. As a result, he stayed in it longer whereas Johnson dropped off the map.

Both were drafted 3rd overall, one season apart, to teams with shitty QBs and bad records for almost the entire career.

Here's the first 11 seasons for both of them.

Johnson
154 games, 1494 targets, 927 receptions, 12,661 yds, 61 TDs, 82.2 yds/gm

Fitzgerald
170 games, 1586 targets, 909 receptions, 12,151 yds, 89 TDs, 71.5 yds/gm
