Snead was never a lock to be a WR 2. His role is in the slot and Thomas is the redzone's number one target; Ginn is the deep threat. Both have the best chance to get TDs. Snead has less unless he gets faster. He's just not looked at in the redzone unless Thomas is accounted for by defenses(Denver game last year).

Depends on how you define your #2. Snead's not a redzone target like Thomas or a threat to score from anywhere on the field like Cooks was but he's a great possession receiver. He's the go to guy when you need a first down. Think of a Julian Edleman type role.

He had a 69% catch percentage, which is outstanding.

Cooks got a first down 38% of the times he was targeted. By comparison Snead got a first down 49% of the times he was targeted.

Cooks got targeted 13 more times than Snead but Snead made 6 more first downs.

If you look at all Snead's stats for last season, he had great numbers for a #2 and he was the third option. Most teams would've loved to get those numbers from their #2 receiver.

Touchdowns get all the glory but you also gotta have someone you can count on to move the chains.

He has more on the line than anyone else so I could see him throwing caution to the wind to make insane grabs. This is his shot to get a deal all or nothing. Jerry Rice was slow as dirt. It can be done.

Regarding 's Ginn dropped passes, remember that Devery Henderson had the same reputation for dropping passes until Curtis Johnson came along. I believe Johnson is going to do the same for Ginn this year.

This is just not true. Maybe not the quickest guy, but certainly Rice had solid top end speed. In his prime he was the NFLs premier deep threat and I never remember him getting caught from behind.
