Nothing personal here on Ginn Jr but ...

You gotta be able to consistently catch the ball, specifically in clutch moments.

His main job was to clear out the defenders for underneath routes to open up, on the rare occasion he did get a pass thrown his way - it was dropped.

Just a bit of stats here. Ginn had 7 drops last year. The same number as Christian McCaffrey and Odell Beckham. Julian Edelman led the league with 13. But, yes, he had less targets so his percentage was higher.

He had nowhere near the volume of them. Stupid comparison. I know you are not stupid either but this is a totally dumb analogy.

He is old. He had limited opportunities. He dropped a lot of them and put shame on himself. He no longer plays for us because of it.

Exactly right. AG's surely can twist a stat. I've never been a stat guy and his example is a perfect reason why. Just like throwing for a ton of yards during junk time . Numbers never lie, right?

Wasn't trying to prove or show anything. I just thought it was an interesting stat even though it had no intrinsic value. I even pointed out the fact that the number of targets was lower.
