He's basically a guy who racks up garbage yards that don't result in anything. Not first downs. Not touchdowns. Not game-changing plays.
He's the WR equivalent of a linebacker who racks up a lot of tackles 10 yards down the field.

When you catch the ball 4 times a game for 8 yards a pop, 1.5 first downs is about par for the course.
If you're always catching the first and 10 pass for 8 yards, and running everything on 2nd/3rd and short, your receivers aren't going to convert a lot of first downs period, especially not your backfield, check down, quick slant option.
Don't be stupid, you know that to be true and you should have known that answer before asking it.
