Erickson out performed Ross by quite a bit last year but Ross was handed the position in fornt of him. Alex had a 69% catch rate and averaged 5.8 yards per target compared to Ross's 36% and 3.6. Ross played close to twice as many snaps as Erickson (602 to 364) and had ONE more reception.
Meanwhile Hopkins only played 30 more snaps than Price but gave up twice as many sacks (3.0 to 1.5)
