Anything less than 6% is very good. Less than 2% shows incredible hands and concentration.
Dobson and Ace Sanders at 0% is other worldly. I'm surprised Hopkins came in with such a high drop rate; even more surprised Patterson's wasn't far higher.
Justin Hunter didn't make the top 15 w/ a 12% drop rate. Not good but he's still a good prospect in the late 2nd or 3rd round range.
I've read several places Robert Woods' ankle/foot problem isn't fully rehabbed and may take some time in the season to heal.
I'd love to get 1 boundary guy and 1 slot type guy (assuming Sanders doesn't get signed). We all have our favorites but in truth there's not a bad receiver mentioned above depending on where they're drafted. But they have to be drafted...please.
Can I ask what the source for this is please? If it's your own work, then bravo! (but could you go into a little bit more detail).
