Today’s Skull Session had an NFL Network clip about the great recent run of OSU WRs. It got me thinking about how past and present Buckeye receivers rank all-time.

Hall of Famers Cris Carter and Paul Warfield are the clear top two Buckeye WRs in NFL history. After that, there are Joey Galloway and Terry Glenn’s long successful NFL careers, Jeff Graham as the final OSU guy over 8,000 yards, Michael Thomas’ four years of brilliance, Santonio Holmes’ Super Bowl MVP … and Terry McLaurin about to insert himself in the top-five conversation.

Here are the raw numbers (catches - yards - TDs)

Cris Carter —— 1101 - 13899 - 130 (HOF)

Joey Galloway — 701 - 10950 -  77

Terry Glenn ——- 593 -   8823 -  44 (1 ring)

Paul Warfield —— 427 -  8565 -  85 (HOF, 3 rings)

Jeff Graham ——- 542 -  8172 -  30

Michael Thomas - 565 -  6569 -  36

Terry McLaurin — 460 -  6379 -   38 (active)

Santonio Holmes - 389 - 6030 -  36 (1 ring / SB MVP)

Ted Ginn ———— 412 -  5742 -  33 (plus 7 return TDs)

Brian Hartline —— 344 -  4766 -  14

David Boston —— 315 -  4699 -  25

Michael Jenkins — 354 -  4427 -  25
