I am after all a 49er fan.
However it is hard to deny the statistics he has put up.
He is #3 all time for Receiving yards (behind Rice and Bruce)
He is #3 all time for Receiving TDs (behind Rice and Moss)
He is #6 all time for receptions (behind Rice, Harrison, Carter, Brown and Bruce)
He is #10 all time for receiving yards per game played
The only stat that I could find where he wasn't in the top-10 for career stats was yards per catch where he has a very respectable 14.9 (for comparison, Jerry Rice was 14.8)...and the guys on top of that list are typically not your top WRs (only 2 of the top 20 are even hall of famers), they are your occasional deep threats, who can't be relied on for much else.
TO sadly is one of the top 5 WR talents alltime in this game. He has also squandered a lot of his potential legacy by being a complete jerk.
