The Washington Redskins have had some fantastic receivers throughout the storied history of the franchise. Here - we take a look at and rank the 10 best to ever put on the gloves for the Burgundy and Gold.

Garcon, the only player to make this list from the current roster, has had a fantastic start to his Redskins career after arriving in 2012. In his three years with the Redskins, and with somewhat inconsistent quarterback play, Garcon has compiled 225 receptions and over 2,700 receiving yards. His 2013 campaign, bringing in a record 113 catches and 1,346 yards, ranks as one of the top seasons for any Redskins wideout.

Although not technically a receiver, Cooley still deserves a spot on this list as one of the top pass catchers to ever play in the Burgundy and Gold. Drafted by the Redskins in the third round of the 2004 draft, Cooley would never play for another team, eventually becoming the Redskins' all-time leader for receptions among tight ends with 429.

Sticking with the trend of tight ends, Jerry Smith had a similarly decorated career for the Redskins, albeit in a much different time era. Smith, in a 13-year career for the team, compiled 5,496 receiving yards and 60 touchdowns, which at the time of his retirement stood as an NFL record for most career touchdowns by a tight end.

Hugh "Bones" Taylor was a mainstay on the outside for the Redskins throughout the late 1940s and early 50s. Standing at about 6'4", Taylor utilized his superior height for over 5,000 career yards and 58 touchdowns. Besides the fact that he still shares the all-time franchise single-season touchdown record with 12, anyone with a nickname of "Bones" automatically qualifies for the list.

After a short stint in the USFL, Sanders played his first 8 NFL years with the Redskins, racking in over 400 receptions and nearly 6,000 yards. Sanders is perhaps best known for his performance in Super Bowl XXII, catching 9 balls for 193 yards and two touchdowns and helping the team to a 42-10 win over the Denver Broncos.

After arriving in Washington in 1962, Mitchell became an extremely productive player for the Skins. As a halfback, Mitchell was an absolute force catching the ball out of the backfield, including a 1963 season with over 1,400 yards and seven touchdowns. After his retirement, Mitchell worked as a scout and executive for the Redskins over 30 years. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1982.

Born and raised in the Washington D.C. area, Clark played eight years for his hometown Redskins from 1985-92. Following a fantastic rookie season recording 72 receptions and almost 1,000 yards, Clark continued his success, going over the 1,000 yard mark five times for the Redskins on his way to four Pro Bowl selections and two Super Bowl victories.

Perhaps the most acclaimed of 21st century Redskins receivers, Moss compiled nine productive seasons in Washington, including a 2005 season which broke Bobby Mitchell's single-season receiving record with 1,483 yards. Known for his phenomenal speed and athletic ability, Moss often ran past corners to find the end-zone, doing so 64 times in his Redskins career. He currently ranks in the top four in Redskins history in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdowns.

The career-Redskin Charley Taylor initially entered the NFL as a running back. After two years at the position, in 1966 he switched to wide receiver where he immediately found success leading the NFL in receiving two consecutive years. Taylor retired in 1977 as the NFL's all-time leading receiver and currently holds the franchise record in touchdown receptions with 79. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1984.

James Arthur "Art" Monk was drafted by the Redskins in the first round of the 1980 NFL Draft. He would go on to play the next 14 seasons with the Redskins, breaking nearly every franchise receiving record. Monk, in addition to three Pro Bowl selections and three Super Bowl victories, was the first player in NFL history to reach 900 career receptions and is still the only player ever with 15 consecutive seasons with at least 35 receptions. He currently stands as the Redskins all-time leader in receptions and receiving yards, and was selected into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2008.
