Doc Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 His problem is he looks to run before he secures the catch. 17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansLanda Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Well, FWIW, he's had almost as many yards and more TDs (granted he had zero) in his rookie NFL season than in his ENTIRE NCAA career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His college and NFL TD total is 2 more than mine! The problem is that he's not played as a receiver, really, until he got to the NFL. It shows. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Boy Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 https://www.foxsports.com/nfl/buffalo-bills-team-stats?season=2019&week=0&category=RECEIVING Ten drops in fifty targets is unacceptable! Worse yet, easily catchable ball drops. Even worse, drive killers. I don’t care how tough he is or what kind of circus catches he makes, I don’t trust him because he is the opposite of reliable. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elltrain22 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Most of his drops are due to him taking his eyes off the football. Knox wants to get yac yards, which causes his drift away from the ball. With more development and growth, he'll get better catching the football 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
298Woody Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Knox was not really a receiver in college, he was a blocking tight end. I think an off season of good coaching and repetition he will be fine. He has also made some amazing highlight catches and gets open a lot. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn’t used as a receiving option in college and played QB in high school. He also missed time during training camp. Give him another off-season. Year 2 will be a big change for him. He might not be Kittle, Ertz, or Kelce, but he’ll be a valuable receiving tight end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All receivers run before they catch the ball, that's how most pass patterns are designed. The better ones don't drop the ball though. I think Knox will turn out to be a good player, just needs to be more consistent ,which should come with more experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Johnson Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 No one is arguing that his drops are incredibly frustrating, but he is going to be an animal in the years to come. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cripple Creek Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 He caught fine until a young fan stole his dew rag. Know anything about that @CountryCletus ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRA3196 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 An offseason with the coaching staff and he will be a very special weapon. Like most of the contributors on this team he is young and needs time and opportunity to develop. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franco_92 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 When his focus is on, his hands are unbelievable. When he's looking up field, he drops like everyone does. That's incredibly coachable and I expect our staff to help him fix it. When he does, he can be a scary good TE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standing there flatfooted not looking/moving forward is just as bad, amiright? Gotta catch the ball though!!!
