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?

Drew's go to guy is Colston, hence his near 1200 yards last year.

Gram has caught 66% and 63% of the balls when targeted the last two seasons.

I am sorry, catches, yards, and TD's are a reflection of his performance.. That's exactly how you measure his production/performance
