The early stats for the NFCS's Rookie WR's... What does it mean?

Looking over the Rookie WR stats for this season so far, Is there anything that can be deducted from these stats?

(Highlighted are the NFCS Rookie WR's)

FOR NOTE: Devonta Freeman has 5 catches(tied for 16th) for 47yards(17th), and Philly Brown has 7 catches(tied for 10th) for 66yards(14th).

According to this link: http://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/stats/drops/2014/

Evans has no drops, on 20 targets and 13 receptions.

KB has 3 drops, on 25 targets and 16 receptions.

Cooks has no drops, on 24 targets and 18 receptions.

With all the talk about Evans and Cooks over KB... seeing these stats, being KB is in teh middle of them in catches, but leading by a big margin in yards... what can be said about the comparison, if anything at all?

KB had an off day in drops with the lions. Cooks and Evans are very good players going into the futre in their own right, and have lived up to the hype.

Benji Is special. He has Bryant, Marshall, Green, Johnson type of caliber. not necesarily a direct comparison to any of those guys, because he is his own beast that others will be compaired to.

It's too early to try to compare these stats.. Panthers feed KB the ball and has more catches over 20+ yards than the others. It's just a product of not having anyone else to throw the ball to.

I mean Philly Brown ranks 10th on that list in receptions. Doesn't mean we are screaming he is better than others.

    • I said the conservative play calling was because Canales doesn't think we can win shootouts. Yes, I did say part of that was because of the young, inexperienced receivers and that the OL is better suited for run blocking. I should have also included Young as part of the reason as well but I was responding to the post concerning "young receivers" and Thielens' absence. I am not so enamored with Young that I think all his problems are simply because of the receivers. I do think they overpaid for him and he has not lived up to the cost. He has had his struggles, as does pretty much every rookie qb thrown into a bad situation. But I have seen enough good things to have hope that he continues to get better. The OP is just pointing out how his performance late in the games when the game is on the line is one of those good things.  
    • I think it goes both ways  It could be they are used to pocket passers, not someone who constantly has to create throwing zones for himself with pocket movement  point being, whether it is Young or the receivers or the sun or the moon or the wind, can’t win in the nfl without the threat of a downfield attack
