Drew Bennett

I actually make that comparison all the time. This is where I see Drew being toward the end of his career, and that's a pretty good thing.

 

And last year he dropped 1 versus 23 catches. He doesn't have any real history of iffy hands to complain about.

 

well also Bennett dropped countless numbers of deep balls that landed right in his hands. And who caugt the game tieing score in the giants game. Yep Brandon Jones.

 

I like Brandon Jones a lot, but I have to say, I fail to see how a guy who has yet to break 400 receiving yards in a full season can be counted on as a #1 receiver - though I will say he led the team in receiving TDs with...4.

Re-sign Drew. Give him an option that triggers more years if you want, but it would just be plain silly to not have him next year at least. I do wonder what we can get for him on the open market in a trade, say (I wonder how high a draft pick, actually), but I will be highly surprised if he's not here.

 

I don't recall Drew dropping any deep balls that hit him in stride. Maybe you can refresh my memory. I do recall him catching a pass in triple coverage against the Colts for a TD. I also recall Drew being wide open in the Buffalo game for a sure TD and Jones tipped the ball away. Is that the play you are thinking about when Drew dropped a deep ball....or the one where Vince underthrew him and he tried to catch it sitting down?

 

i recall that happening in the jags game, not the bills. bj just saved him from dropping another one.

 

well i was harsh but our WR corps as a whole really dropped the ball on a lot of opportunities. Now that is true. But from all the drops opened the running game and Travis Henry.

 

I remember Jones shieing away from the big hit once or twice, its common amongst receivers...

 

They still want to play. If you don't shieve away from a hit sometimes your career is over.

 

A good QB will try to avoid setting up receivers with "hospital passes" if he can, but with rookies it happens a lot. Things will improve.
