The AFCW trying to sign every 2017-2018 all pro player out there to beat Mahomes.

I can appreciate the age references, but I think it's also fair to point out that the Rams and Bucs won the last 2 Super Bowls by stacking their teams with aging vets chasing rings.

Julio, Jarvis, OBJ, & JuJu are still out there + MAYBE Michael Thomas. I certainly wouldn't hate one of those vets being added to our squad. |

Also, schefter just posted that the rams may potentially deal woods. Jamison crowder has my interest as well. |

Where have you seen Michael Thomas’s name cone up for trade? |

Even in the year where he was REALLY a problem with his drops (2020) and had 7 against only 33 catches, he went for 11 yards/target with 6 scores, four of which were over 45 yards. 6 scores on 63 targets seems pretty damn good to me. My point is exactly that - I don't care if he's a possession receiver. Would I like to have a guy that can run a 4.4 and never drops a ball? Sure - those cost about $17 million if you're lucky. But if my choice is the guy that runs a 4.65 and will drop 5 balls over 100 targets and net 7 yards/target or a guy that runs a 4.40 and will drop 10 balls over 60 targets and net 9 yards/target while putting the defensive backfield in uncomfortable decision scenarios, I'm taking the latter 100% of the time. It's not even a close question. You want to get teams out of this goddamn Cover 2, the answer is NOT to play the slice. It's to put someone out there that can force that FS into making uncomfortable decisions. |
From what I can see, he has 13 career drops over 247 targets. So 5% of his targets are drops over his career (he had zero in 55 targets last year, FYI).
Shit, double it, I don't care. Give him 6 drops in 60 targets and give some rando possession WR 1 drop in 80. Doesn't matter if the latter is not forcing hard decisions or doing damage when he brings the ball in. Moreover, over an equalized sample size the difference between 'bad hands' MVS and 'elite possession WR' Jarvis Landry is, what, 5 catches over the course of a season? Call it 8 if you want - fine. That's a drop every other game that MVS has that Landry wouldn't. Meanwhile every time he catches it he goes for more yards than Landry would. And every time he runs a route he puts a hell of a lot more pressure on the secondary. We do NOT need a possession WR. And the fact that possession WRs are getting murdered on the market right now demonstrates that teams know this. |
