What do you disagree with? I think he nailed it. He does get wide open for easy passes on crossers mostly along with a couple other routes, but routes down the sideline you rarely see him get any separation. As for his hands, well, they actually rank #1...

#1 drop rate at 12 1/2 percent...

The "doesn't get separation" stuff is laughably poor analysis when you watch his tape. 

He's open very frequently on routes where it's clear he has a potential to do something other than block. There are many where he is clearly meant to clear out an area and immediately turn into a blocker. He takes one step after the break and turn to block without looking for the ball. I'd expect less of that with Foles/Flip.

If you are looking at when the ball arrives you could be duped into thinking he's not getting consistent separation. 
If you look at the steps he takes after his break before he has to adjust to a poorly thrown and poorly timed football, it's clear he indeed gets separation quite often. 

You also have to account for the routes that have been methodically struck from the playbook over the years due to the lack of trust in the QB. Saying "all he can get open on is crossers" is again poor analysis as that is simply what was dumbed down for Blake to throw to him in the system. He didn't get much other opportunity route wise. 
In his first year under Fisch, Lee ran a greater variety of routes and showed good separation quite often with a more diverse tree. 

Again. Just matter-of-fact, calling it like I see it observations from the all 22 here.
