There is enough competition in camp this year to force him off the roster. If he sticks around then maybe he's earned it, even though a lot of fans think he's just wasting a roster spot. I'm one of them who think he's been a major disappointment. Yes, he was only a third round draft pick, but those picks need to contribute and 3Q hasn't done that yet on a consistent basis.

Not sure where you get the dropped ball impression. He was among the top catch percentage guys on the team last year. Even better than Olave. For his career his catch percentage has been better than the league average.

I'll give you that he doesn't get as open as others, but then again he's usually being asked to set up the play for others with his blocking.
