Monk's career numbers are much better, but he also played 4 more seasons than Irvin.
If you take a straight average of all his stats to his 16 year career, his average season works out to be 59 catches, 795 yards and 4 TD's.
Irvin in comparison over his 12 years averages out to 63 catches, 992 yards and 5 TD's per season.

Monks Stats based on his 1st 12 years. This is a even comparison and pulls out the last 4 years.
66.75 catches per year
915 yards per season
5 TD Per Season
Considering Monk was the slot reciever and recieved most of his passes over the middle and on quick out patterns that is pretty impressive. He also played in a ton of 3 reciever sets.
If you actually think Irvin will get into the HOF then do us all a favor and go buy a retro Irvin jersey and be a Cowgirls fan. There is one thing we always do as Redskin fans in Boo the Cowboys, No excuses allowed.
