I would absolutely take Calvin Johnson over all 3 of them for a season. I understand not putting him in the top 3 due to career length but he's got better hands than any of them.

You're kidding me.  Maybe...maybe Owens.  Nobody was better than Rice and there's no was he was better than Moss.

At the same time Boselli absolutely is in the same tier as Anthony Munoz.

LOL ..... Munoz started 184 games whereas Boselli started 90 games.

If you are talking about a 5 season stretch, then yes, Munoz and Boselli are similar.  If you are talking career, Munoz and Boselli aren't in the the same universe

Munoz Boselli
Boselli and Munoz are the same tier in ability.

Nah

I think people forget how pass-oriented the league is today and how much receivers look better because of it. Rice probably has the best hands in history. Owens was better too, and Moss made a career of reliably grabbing 50-50 throws. You put them into today's NFL and Johnson is an afterthought. Rice had better seasons in the 80s and 90s than Johnson did in the 2010s.
Imagine Jerry Rice in today’s pass happy league....
