All Time Team - Part 3 WR

There are three wide-outs I would start any team with

Stanley Morgan - Former first round pick from Tennessee in 1977. Played 14 seasons, including 13 for the Pats. Career leader for the team with 10,352 yds, receiving TD's with 67, 2nd for receptions with 534 and averaged 19.4 yds per catch! Steve Grogan's favorite target. Blazing speed!!

Irving Fryar- Number 1 pick overall in the 1984 draft from Nebraska. Played 9 controversial years for the Pats before he was cut by Bill Parcells in 1993. Surfaced in Miami and redeemed his career by playing another 8 seasons, including stops in Philadelphia and Washington. Number 13 in NFL history with 12,785 yards and 13th for receptions with 851. Number two in Pats history for punt returns and yardage. He was a highlight film on Special Teams. Became a minister upon retirement.

Troy Brown - The ultimate overachiever. 8th round pick from Marshall in 1993 carved out a 15 year career including three Super Bowl Championships. Team career leader in receptions ( 557) and 2nd in yards 6,366, #1 for punt returns with 270 and yards with 2,625 yards. Fought his way onto the roster with Special Teams play and made himself a clutch receiver on third down.
