I've said it before, but our offense is generally better without ARob. Our offense stagnates when ARob is force fed the ball because he is a low catch percentage guy. He is the equivalent of a Carmelo Anthony that needs volume to produce. If we had another receiver who could pull down 100 receptions at an efficient rate, ARob would be a perfect compliment, but we don't.

I would have liked to see him retained, but in reality he will never be worth $15 million. If he is the primary receiving target your offense will regress and he won't be worth it. If you pair him with a high reception partner, then is 70 catches per year worth $15 million? Probably not.

It sucks that he was the only pass catcher on the roster that should be starting games in the NFL. Blake needs a lot of help.
