Swann at 24, Stallworth at 27. Sounds good to me.

I know, no Hines Ward. I would have said something, but this guy wrote it best; I wonder who Justin is here?
Justin Vican: "As a Steeler fan, I appreciate the inclusion of Swanny & Stallworth on this list. However, I must put in a word for Hines Ward. Not only does he hold every Steeler receiving record (ahead of both Steeler HOF WRs), but he's probably the best slot receiver in the game in the last 20 years. One thing he has over anybody on this list is his ability to block. He is hands down the best blocking receiver ever. Period. End of discussion. If they kept stats for DDC (Dudes De-Cleated), and DKFO (Dudes Knocked the F--- Out) he would lead everyone on this list. He'd rank up there with the likes of Ray Lewis and Dick Butkus (yeah, I know they're not WRs ... that's my point)
bold added.
