With his speed and moves he has a huge upside.
Devin Hester will be in the top 5 receivers next year.

#11Ya I tend to agree, top 5 is quite a stretch. However, top 25 may not be.Comment -

#13I'll bump this thread next year. He gets more separation than just about anyone in the league and will be the best after the catch.Comment -

#14He is definitely one of the best after the catch but I also think that he is as of the moment not a top 5 caliber WR.. Smith, Moss, Johnson, Welker and , Holt.."Sometimes I remember it one way. Sometimes another. If I'm going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice!"Comment -

#16did you guys see Hester run straight towards the wrong goal line on the one kick return yesterday!!! he is over-thinking kick returns and blowing it. He is almost more valuable to this bears team as a big kick returner like last year, then he is as the receiver he is now.
Even the commentators said yesterday was the first time they've seen Hester savy enough to do a "double move"... it was basically a post pattern...my 4 year old nephew can run a double move in his living room with the nerf ball.Comment -

#17Top 5 what?
Are you serious? Hester can run one route right now. That is all he will ever offer any team. He is a one route pony.
He isn't exactly built to run across the middle of the field, or outjump someone on a fade route.Comment -

#23He is too short to be a really elite WR. He is 5-11 and that may be generous. 6-2 is about the minimum you want your wide receivers. Plus who knows how good his hands are. He hasn't proven anything yet.
There are exceptions to the height rule like Steve Smith and Santana Moss but generally the taller the better until you get to about 6-6, that is a bit too tall.
The point is the odds are stacked against him to be an elite receiver. Steve Smith is a phenom and just an exception to the rule.Comment -
