They also had Rucker, Braylon Edwards and Josh Gordon.

Baltimore/Indy Colts ... Berry, Moore, Mutscheller(TE also) Orr, Richardson, Hinton-Jefferson SB year, Carr, Doughty, Brooks, Rison(one season)Dawkins, Harrison, Wayne, Hilton

Steelers also had Jefferson and he led the league in yardage with them....Steelers have got to be high on the list....

Dallas -- Drew Pearson, Bob Hayes, Michael Irvin, there's 3 HOF off the top of my head. Tony Hill was very good.

Minnesota -- Moss, Carter, Rashad, Sammy White, Gene Washington, John Gilliam....they've had good receivers through the years, but not like the other teams mentioned.

Cleveland has had quite a few notable receivers -- Lavelli, Speedie, Ray Renfro, Dub Jones (perhaps the NFL's first flanker), Pete Brewster in the 50s....Gary Collins was an excellent receiver, Webster Slaughter, Reggie Rucker, Michael Jackson, and of course Paul Warfield....

Of the group (plus Ralph's inclusion of McNally), the end with the highest YPR among the Packers? Dale, with a 19.7 YPR on 275 receptions as a Packer. His "down" year as a Packer still had him averaging 16.6 YPR on 49 receptions in 1970.

Personally, I believe Dale should already be in the HOVG if not HOF ... clutch in postseason

I submitted his name to Andy earlier this morning for the 2021 HoVG, along with three others (two of which he wrote were already there).
