Maybe we can go back to 10 game 40 catch Shockey. And who did we have before shockey...??? Crickets are chirping because I can't even name the GD TE before Shock. JG is a nightmare to game plan around and he plays with an attitude. He had some drops, no doubt. Many were drops he should have never had- Colston did too. I think there were so many drops last year that we were all calling for a new WR's coach.

99 catches 1310 yds 11td's
85 catches 982 yds 9 td's

I am sorry I just don't see what that bad ass has left to prove

Those are cumulative stats, not performance. It's the same if drew completed 50 passes per game but had to throw 100 to do it, thats only a 50% completion rate. Jimmy is Drews go to man, and Drew throws a lot. Last year Drew threw 670 passes thats more than he has ever thrown in a regular season. As a matter of stats only Stafford threw more attempts. You seem to be misunderstanding my point. In order to be worth 12mm he needs to be clutch more than one season. Being the league drop leader means he is no where clutch.

When the game is on the line do you want to throw to a receiver with 1000 yards or one with a 1% drop rate?
