There's well over 15 pages of Dobson analysis here. I myself engaged in what was probably a 5 page dissection of every one of Dobson's bodily movements during a 2 second time span of a damn preseason game. I think this thread has lived up to its title.Wait, how did I end up in a Keenan Allen thread
I know, that's why there's a smiley face instead of an eye roll. No thread about a player with one good game in a year and a half can go on for 15 pages without some detours. And I'm one who thinks Dobson heads a real chance to be a #2 receiver, if he can stay reasonably healthy.There's well over 15 pages of Dobson analysis here.

I feel like there are still some people that would love nothing more than to see Dobson fail and be released. There was some strange irrational hate for this guy.Unless you think that means they aren't pulling for him now, saying "not true" is not accurate.

TB12 will have more trust in Dobson by the end of the bye week and then.. watch out NFL!!!!!
But what about when Lafell comes back
There may not have been many who explicitly said they wanted him to fail but there have certainly been some who have asked for him to be cut after he couldn't reel in a highlight catch in preseason that turned into an interception. Christ there was at least a couple of people who seemed eager for it. Some even believed that Thompkins is a better option.
Not saying the guy has been a big contributor but after his improvement throughout his rookie year when healthy, I believed that he could be a real player for us if he could keep himself on the field. He is no Chad Jackson or Brandon Tate and I've felt that way since he started improving as a rookie...around the 2013 Saints game.
How did he regress during his rookie season? He started with dropped balls during the Jets game and people were bashing him for a while. He improved from then on until he was injured and out for the rest of the season. He did fine (I mentioned the Saints game) and had a five game stretch prior to his injury where he caught more balls than Edelman. He never regressed during his rookie year. That's fiction.Wait, we're now to the point of claiming that a blown routine catch was a "highlight catch", and calling his regression during his rookie season "improvement"?
And people wonder why I mock excessive homerism?
You want to know what I consider mentally strong. Having feelings of wanting to quit, sucking it up, getting re focused, and coming out to have a rookie year in which you he went for almost 1100 yards, 8TD, having 71 receptions on 105 targets and only 4 DROPS. 80% of his catches went for first downs and he finished #10 that year on PFF WR's list.
Yeah, I really think he's mentally weak..... In the NFL where stats do the talking , he statistically proved anyone and everyone who doubted him wrong.
Go look it up yourself in the Draft forum. My feelings were made known at the time.I am quite confident that if the pats had taken Allen instead of Dobson this board would have been up in arms about taking such a slow receiver with injury concerns and on the verge of retiring in the 2nd round. If any of the armchair GMs around here though can link to their post during the 2013 draft where they declared that Keenan Allen would have been a much better selection then I will bow down and admit that BB can't draft and surely can't compete with your scouting prowess. Serious.
He's becoming the new Laurence Maroney of the board. He is creating that kind of dichotomy right now. Sunday was very encouraging. I hope he can build on it so that his career here does not go the way of Laurence Maroney.
