Data Crunch: Evans & Beckham

Related Topics: Reception, David Beckham

In the history of the NFL, there have only been 27 players who have exceeded 3,000 total receiving yards over their first three professional seasons. Two of them will be on the field Sunday at Raymond James Stadium.

The 2014 NFL draft is unquestionably one of the greatest of all time when it comes to producing star wideouts. Sammy Watkins was the first receiver drafted, at #4 overall by Buffalo; his career has been slowed by injuries but a fresh start is serving him well in San Francisco. After that, the Buccaneers jumped on Mike Evans at #7 and the Giants quickly followed with Odell Beckham at #12.
