As for the original question, a #1 WR is someone that doesn't drop balls when his wide open. Some one you can count on to get you that first down on a third down pass. Someone that can get open at will. Someone that you have to double team if you're a defense. Someone who loves to play in the NFL. Someone that doesn't cower when he sees the safety coming to lay wood on him. Someone that goes and gets the ball not waits for it. Someone that doesn't take plays off and goes 100% even when the ball isn't going to be thrown his way. Someone that makes his QB better. Someone like Larry Fitzgerald, Hines Ward, Reggie Wayne, Steve Smith, and Wes Welker.
