Drew Sample is a Bum

[Whatever]

I listed Erickson, but I didn't list Ross because he's been inactive for 2 months.

You said that Sample has outperformed the majority of our Wide Receivers, and I'm asking which Wide Receivers are you referring to?  By what measure is he outperforming them?

If your argument is that a 2nd round, and now #1 TE is outperforming an inactive John Ross, and WR Alex Erickson then I'd say you're really reaching to look for excuses to defend clearly sub-par play.  And Auden Tate is WR4 and sees the field a fraction of the time Sample does.

C'mon maaaaaaannnnn....

You omitted Ross, a WR, because he only played 2 games but decided to add Uzomah, a TE, who also only played in 2 games.  That's how I know you were blatantly adding and removing guys to skew the stats in your favor. And the statement you bolded and claimed was false specifically compared him to WR's.  

Sample has been mediocre.  He's also the #2 TE and wouldn't be seeing near the snaps he has if CJ hadn't gotten hurt.  Backups like Adeniji don't get call out threads when they don't play well.  Quite the opposite, actually.  #4 WR is also equivalent to #2 TE on the depth chart, so the Tate comparison is valid.  

Point being, there are a lot of guys on this team that have played worse than Sample that don't see near the hate.
