Something I find rather interesting: Donald Driver has two seasons on this list–2002 and 2005. In between, his teammate Javon Walker has one in 2004, with Driver still on the team and even having a pretty nice season himself.

Looking further at those Packers teams is an interesting look at how this metric works. In 2004, Ahman Green, Tony Fisher, and William Henderson had a combined 791 yards on 112 catches (7.1 ypc), which helped both Driver (14.4 ypc on 82 catches) and Walker (15.5 ypc on 89 catches) stand out. It’s a similar story in ’02 (Green, Henderson, and Bubba Franks had a combined 7.3 ypc on 137 catches–and incidentally does anyone on earth remember that Terry Glenn spent a year in Green Bay??!!). The low ypc from all of the non-WR weapons and the amount of receptions they got made the situation conducive to a wideout ranking high on this list.
