Mark Madden has been talking about AB's flags for his TD's, but he calls him the best wr ever. Ive heard a couple other sports people say this also. I know Madden hates Ward, but I think Ward was extremely underated. Look at AB's stats without Ben. Then think about the prime of Ward's career, his qb's were Stewart and Maddox and he still put up great numbers on a run first team with a HOF RB before the rules were totally slanted toward the passing game. We really didn't open the offense up under Ben until 2007 when Ward was 31. His playoff numbers were very good as well.
I think Ward gets over looked a lot of the time because he wasn't overly athletic like AB is.
