Very very average hands. In fact, the most dangerous WR in the game dropped a ball that cost the Patriots the Super Bowl mere months ago then dropped another one that cost them the AFC championship game just a few months after that one.

Can't live without that guy around.

When you catch 20 balls a game.............

**** it, you're right. He's so bad he'll never make the history books.

Except, he has, like 7 times now.

If pure slot WRs were so valuable, then why the **** is Amendola not going to get much money along with Welker, Davon Bess, and others?

They do not line up in the slot, typically, or predominantly. AJ Green lines up on the outside at least 85% of his snaps, as do the rest of them.

Amendola just got 30 million for 5 years, that's not bad at all.

Pure slot receivers are valuable, but they aren't numerous. You don't need more than 1 slot receiver on a team, but you do need 2 outside receivers. There is a smaller market for slot receivers because of this, and they don't pay well for it.

Wes Welker cannot be nearly as productive as he is, on the outside. His size won't allow it. However, if you stick him in the slot, suddenly he's one of the most productive receivers to ever play the game.

How do you put a value on that?

As for Davone Bess, he lines up outside quite a bit. It largely depends on the talent they have there in Miami, he's a very versatile guy who doesn't specifically fit into either mold, but plays either position decently.

No, last year we said, "Oh, peyton is coming off surgery, he's over the hill, lost his arm, he won't be a threat".

Then he smoked us. And I say "we" and "us" as a fan base, because I didn't say those words, Instead, I drafted Peyton as my #2 QB in Fantasy Football because I knew better.
