Evans 5th Year (this season thus far)

14 receptions, 332 yards, 1 TD, on pace for 48 receptions, 1328 yards, 4 TDs


Looks like yardage wise Lee is Andre'esque, but it remains to be seen the receptions and TD totals will match up well with Andre.

Andre also made it to the Pro Bowl in his 5th year also, Lee has yet to make it. Do you believe with all the spotlight on the Bills this season that Lee will go to Hawaii this season?

Lee is a real good receiver, but until he proves to have the consistency and longevity that Reed had it is not a viable comparison.

Andre also had a guy by the name of Jim Kelly throwing the rock to him.

No WR will ever be able to go over the middle like Andre Reed.

I would have loved to see Evans in that Ted Marchibroda/Jim Kelly offense.

Trent is also much more inexperienced than Kelly was at this point. Remember Kelly didn't take a snap for the Bills until 2 full seasons after he was drafted.

Reed and Evans are completely different recievers. Present-day Reed is the closest we have, a poor man's version if you will.

Lee couldn't carry Andre Reed's jock. Period.

Who cares about receptions anyways? I'll take the yardage.
