You have it right.
Number of targets is the only and true barometer of a WR. Not the number of snaps which is totally foolish. In that scenario the WR is penalized when almost 50% of the offensive plays are runs and the WR is running a route as a decoy or blocking. Furthermore, Maye throws at a rate of 72%, so 28% of his throws were not completed. Using snaps, if the WR is on the field during a pass to Douglas thats incomplete, he gets penalized.
Hollins was WR3 last season and is still WR3 until Douglas or Williams takes over.
Hollins and AJ Brown are the only current NE WRs to catch TD passes in the Super Bowl and Conference Championship.
I have Douglas as the #3 in the sense that he is the slot guy and that he will see the field more than Hollins/Williams in 3 WR sets.
