His availability is one of his problems. But his production, outside of two games has been very poor.
Speed in one thing, but there is so more to the position and he doesn't see to have any of it.
In is second year, he played in 13 games with 10 starts and managed 210 yards. For an outside receiver that's pretty pathetic. He did, however, manage 7 TDs many by running routes along the back of the end zone.
In this third year, game 1, he had 158 yards and 2 TDs. Game 2 he had 112 yards and 1 TD. He played in 6 more games last season and for those game he averaged 39.3 yards per game and he had 0 TDs. He disappeared.
Over the 3 years he's played in 24 of 48 games he has 716 yards 10 TDs.
Consider last year's 3rd round pick Terry McLaurin who started and played in 14, mostly with a rookie QB. He had 919 yards and 7 TDs. He ran a 4.35 at the combine.
Ross is replaceable. Very replaceable. His speed is replaceable. His production is replaceable.
Exactly. He should have been replaced a while ago. Tate took his spot as a late rounder. I have always felt we should have cut our losses with Ross and opened the roster spot up to someone with any potential because Ross has zero potential.
