He had more catches than our #2 & #3 leading receivers combined....and THEY were both TE's.   And #4 was ANOTHER RB.  -  The guy we drafted instead of Wentz had 23 catches.

The latter for Treggs was a team low 27.8%. For reference the next lowest was Coleman at 39.7%. Excepting a couple players with single digit Targets, Duke led the team with 79.6%.

In general our WR's put up miserable numbers.  Yes, we had a rookie QB but they pretty much mimicked their 2016 season.

The Duke is a talent but you can't count on him as a WR.   

These stats are indicative of our record.  It's a passing league and we don't get the ball to our WR's.   (can't get the ball to them)

Looking at YDS/REC, Gordon shows why he's that good. I've looked some stats by top NFL WR and they post more than 13 YDS/REC, but I haven't seen anyone going over 18. 

Only receiver we have with a similar stat? Treggs. What about him? I don't remember him playing many snaps, am I wrong? Also his longest is 20yds, so it's not like he did a huge 60 play and sucked for the rest of his receptions. 

The only receiver I remember blatantly dropping the ball several times is Coleman, but I know there are more drops on their account (Britt, I look at you).

Njoku put some good numbers considering the problems Kizer had throwing to the middle, and he has the most TDs. Can't wait to see how he develops.
