For 2013, this shows the highest drop percentages in the league among tight ends. Guess who is not on there?

Quote:To qualify a tight end needed to be thrown at least 30 catchable balls, leaving a field of 36.
Quote:Proven how? In 2011 PFF ranked him 31/35 in drop rate. 2012 He was 22/37. 2013 he was 40/41. 2014 he didn't get enough snaps but he would've had the 6th worst drop rate. He drops a lot of passes.
Quote:People overblow Lewis' lack of production and miscues because there are Antonio Gates, Jimmy Graham's, and Gronkowski's out there scoring TDs every week.The problem is the Lewis is getting paid like an elite TE when he's not. Same as Scobee - highest-paid kicker in the game, but definitely not the best.
And Lewis is stuck trying to help the O-line block and not really used a lot of a pass catcher.
He's also getting older and not really getting better with a big contract.
Lewis can only do what is asked of him.
Quote:Here is the 2012 list. Also not there.I've posted these before. They get ignored.

Scobee is one of the best he just does not get the pub cause #becausejaguars. I cant think of another kicker i would rather have.
We need truly elite players and we don't have them on the roster - or at least our young players haven't developed enough to be in the elite category. I hold out hope that some of our young WR's/CB's have that potential, BB5 will develop into an elite QB.
Quote:Good for bortles and co.proof he's a bust
Beadle paid 2.7 million for 1800 square feet? Must be a pretty special view.
Quote:Wow, he got ripped off. Could've got a lot more house on a Florida beach. It's also hard to believe the house's value nearly doubled in 10 years, but I'm no real estate expert.
Quote:I would much rather cut Lewis and use half that money on someone like Charles Clay and half on Owen Daniels. We will get 1 down the field threat in Daniels and one blocker and catcher in Clay. Lewis has to go.
Quote:Yep. And the drops are blown out of proportion as well. Middle of the pack.

This part.

He's credited with 29 catchable balls. He had a drop rate of 13.79. I'm looking at the stats. If you don't have a PFF subscription, you'll just have to trust me.
