Notes:
-John Ross' catch rate improved from 2018 to 2019, from 36.2% to 50.0%
-But John Ross' drop rate was also worse in 2019, at 14.3% compared to 12.1% the year prior.
-AJ Green has a career catch rate of 58.7%, so his 2018 numbers showed no regression. In fact, they showed a slight improvement over average.
-John Ross' best catch rate of career (50%) is lower than AJ Green's worst (52.4.%)
Good stuff, Wes..and it makes a strong argument that Green is more reliable. I think we would agree he is not as explosive, and for a healthy 16 games, I think Ross would really put up some huge numbers. Ross was also targeted more downfield, and Green had more slot routes. I think that should change. Get Ross some high % completions and let him use his elusiveness.
