Ginn didn't follow the ball into his hands to secure the catch. Because he didn't, the ball hit his palm instead of catching with his fingers and bounced right out. Focused on that game winning play too much

He followed it better than the Colts one which is why this time he caught it with his fingers, but the ball just pops up. There's finger exercises for this to tighten one's grip

Eyes check, he brought it to his body to secure the ball this time. Which to me, Idc if a player use his feet to catch the ball just catch the ball

Ginn is a veteran receiver. At this point he is what he is. Accept it. I really wish our fans could get over his drops, its the price of doing business with Ted Ginn.

Chances are that you are correct, but it is still not out of the realm of possibility that Ginn could further improve his reception percentage with continued help from the coaching staff to refine his technique.

Possible though not probable

all you people covering for ginn go right on ahead , but don't come crying to the rest of us if he drops the game winning touchdown with seconds left in a playoff game.

It's simply utter frustration to see an NFL level wide receiver drop passes that often.

I wish Cam could do a bunch of extra drills with Ginn alone just to get more practice in for Ginns catching. I wonder if Ginn catches the ball like 99% of the time in practice by is dropping these passes only in the actual games?

It's something I've been noticing for a long while with Ginn... he never looks the ball into his hands on those deep over the shoulder bombs.  Even on the ones he catches.  He tracks it all the way until the moment of truth, then it's like he just blanks out and completely loses track of the ball right as it reaches him.  Then at that moment it completely becomes a game of chance.  He has no problem catching them across the middle when he's looking directly at Cam and can see the ball the entire way, same thing with catching punts, where he's facing the ball and able to follow the ball the entire way...

It's not a hands thing.  It's strictly an eye and concentration thing.  If somehow the light bulb would suddenly come on (which is unrealistic to expect at this point) and he could learn to follow the ball into his hands on those over the shoulder catches, he'd be just fine.  He'd be an absolutely lethal deep threat with Cam.

I dunno.  I don't know how he hasn't fixed something like that this late into his career.  Aside from that he's got most of the other tools.

We need to test him for add, and have him work with a professional juggler.

So your suggesting we don't play Ginn in the playoffs then?   Lol at the extra drills with Cam.

Clearly the eyes are off the ball in the drops.  If it hasn't been corrected by now, it will not be.  Now, does he have value?  You bet.  When he does get the ball he can put some speed on.  He is getting up in age for WR.  How long will that burst of speed last?  Hopefully the answer to WR is on the roster.  Yes it is.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
