They weren't very similar. Sterling was 6'0" 207 lb beast who could run like an RB. He would truck smaller corners. Antonio was a 5'10" 185 lb jitterbug."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson

He was a bit of a unicorn. Ran good routes and enough explosion to get separation. Great strength to fight for extra yards and for contested balls. Don't think he dropped much, great hands. Who knows what could have been, but I recall several vigourous debates around 94 as to whether he was better than Rice.

More physical than rice for sure. Sharpe and Majic were my hero's as a kid!

I had a book about QB/WR connections and it was montana/rice and Magic/Sharpe. Had a VHS showing highlights from all the first 20some Superbowls..... I was obsessed with football as a kid. Played every day. I was late to develop, but even being smaller, I had heart and savvy so could play with older kids and make playsFormerly known as JustinHarrell.

Sharpe would have been considered a top 5 all time receiver in the NFL if he never got hurt. Sure he was dick to the media, and was at times a "me" guy with the organization but he had so many unique traits as a wide receiver. He had phenomenal hands, great body control, laser sharp focus on the ball, and loved to embarrass defensive backs that tried to bump and run him.
