OBJ was overrated AF, always felt that way. Even at his peak he was never You made me think of this video:

I was talking about insane catches, of which ODB and Landry >>> anything I've ever seen Chase or Jefferson do....that's all, full stop. I said nothing about who's "better." That said, after their first three seasons, both held NFL records. ODB had the most yards of any NFL receiver in history over their first 3 years, and I think he was hurt for part of one of those years. Landry had more receptions than any NFL receiver in history over their first 3 years.
However you view them, that's impressive, and I've seen ODB flat out abuse many of the game's best corners. Richard Sherman should've filed suit against ODB for the exploitation he put him through a few years ago.
You can say ODB has been overrated since the first ACL tear, and that's fair. He hasn't been the same since, and now with the 2nd tear, I'm not sure that he's going to stick with a team even if he comes back. And you can say Landry is nothing more than a move-the-chains possession kind of guy, and that's fair. There's still a need for that in the league and it's not nothing when a guy can consistently get open, get yards, and has sure hands. So I disagree with you and maintain they were both very, very good at what they did.
Not being Chase or Jefferson =/= overrated. Nobody is those guys. That said, my point above was to say if we're talking about absurd grabs, nothing has ever surpassed what I saw ODB/Juice do in college. It was beyond video game stuff.
