This combination of high catch rate and big plays is not normal. I don't know if it can continue as he gets more attention from defenses, but right now Shaheed is a possession deep threat.

Shaheed's career numbers are now at 82.5% catch rate and 17.5 yards per reception. Tyreek Hill is 68.2% catch rate and 14 yards per reception. Randy Moss is 56.4% catch rate and 15.5 yards per reception. Michael Thomas is 77.3% catch rate and 11.6 yards per reception.

Keep in mind that Thomas' numbers are based upon 687 career targets. Shaheed ... 40 targets. Let's see what they look like after a reasonable sample. I am hoping beyond hope that they remain that lofty. I seriously doubt it however.

Yeah, It's hard to shine as brightly as he has without having a substantial drop off when teams game plan for you. Unless, you're a twin and you look twice as good!

All I know is that having Shaheed, MT & Olave is dangerous for ANY defense.

Not to mention Juwan balling too.

Nice group of pass catchers. Just ask the KC Chiefs.

He’s a big play waiting to happen.

And he's not the only threat we have now. That's a nice change.

It’s nice to see our pass catchers catching balls. I can’t recall seeing a ball outright dropped.

Derek Carr is going to feed his receivers all game long. Just imagine how good we'll look when AK comes back. Championship!?!

He's still so raw. I'm excited to see how he develops.
