We seem to struggle with TEs in that respect. Shokey and Graham (most of the time) were great at snatching the ball from no matter where its flight path was, our TEs lately however seem to take the 5gal bucket approach. If it isnt in the bucket...f3cket.

Coleston, Snead, M. Thomas, Cooks, Moore, all fought and went after the ball. Ginn and a few more prefer the 5gal bucket approach.

The pick in the end zone in the loss to Atlanta represents exactly what you're saying. Drew took tons of heat for it, and nothing against Hill, but that one would have been caught by a better TE.
