Yeah, there's been a plethora of excellent and entertaining receivers in the CFL.

What about Swervin' Mervyn Fernandez? Not a long career, but a great one.

Saskatchewan's history has been great.

I'm partial to Elgaard, Narcisse and Dressler, but I think our best receiver ever was Joey Walters. Sad he didn't get to play a couple more years. 1981 with 102 catches for 1,715 yards and then 1,695 yards in 1982. I saw him make the most ridiculous TD catch I've ever witnessed. Rob Vanstone even wrote an article on it...
