From Pat Y Blog....

He’s a backup wide receiver on a losing team. But, at least statistically speaking, Tampa Bay’s Preston Parker has the best hands in the NFC South.

Parker has a division-best 97.2 wide-receiver catch percentage (receptions divided by receptions plus drops). According to ESPN Stats & Information, Parker has just one drop while being targeted 53 times and making 35 catches. He slightly edges out New Orleans’ Marques Colston and Carolina’s Brandon LaFell for the division lead after 14 games.

Here’s a look at the catch percentages for the rest of the division’s receivers after Parker:

Colston: 97.1

LaFell: 96.9

Legedu Naanee, Panthers: 95.5

Harry Douglas, Falcons: 95.0

Steve Smith, Panthers: 94.7

Robert Meachem, Saints: 94.6

Lance Moore, Saints: 94.3

Julio Jones, Falcons: 91.3

Mike Williams, Buccaneers: 89.6

Roddy White, Falcons: 88.5

Arrelious Benn, Buccaneers: 85.3

These "drop" stats have always been highly suspect to me. Naanee hasn't caught even close to 95% of catchable balls thrown his way. The first few games into the season he was dropping more balls that were right in his hands than catching.

yeah, it's bullshit.

all pat y writes is bullshit so i'm not too surprised

      You're saying the same thing as I said.  Until Jordan becomes an active part of recruiting and funding, this school will continue to fall way behind.  But to say Michael Jordan or the Jordan brand doesn't matter anymore, which is what you said, is flat out wrong.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers will strongly consider Kenyon Sadiq if he’s there @19

      By Basbear · Posted

      I have not learnt my lesson and will always want Uber athletic profiles. Sorry, Im a whore about it.... Im not the right guy to defend Kenyon, I just have a understanding with this years draft, numbers, and panthers roster. He is more of "upside/project" and we are talking 19th pick here too.  I know about the years of all the mock drafts with TEs in them and I did want Pitts too.... Look I love the current TEs on the roster too, just this guy should be better than any of them at their best.  Right now I feel OT is the correct target, but panthers as a org are trying to win in 2026 than 2027. So tea leaves and all, Kenyon would help this year. You can even say flex him to slot for most of the snaps and think of tmac on smoke routes with Kenyon blocking for him. I just hate BY is the shooter..... warren, I would say he's the better prospect even without his rookie year, *but he was late bloomer like XL if Im right, plus age was 25ish?? Bears picked love above him, mainly cause of recs.  You can make a case that Kenyon is not a TE, but a moving weapon for offense that can be in the backfield, on the LOS, slot, and even X.... imean he's got XLs combine on some numbers.... He would be better to a offense mad scientist type...is that Dave? or is that bevell?? I think the Panthers should have him as a 19 pick, with others...

      That's one of the best power play games I've seen us have in a while.
