i was sitting here reading all the stuff.. and came across this.. i think this provides a great look into what we just got.. i think after you see these stats next to each other.. you will see that this is a guy that is bringing something to the table.. you may think he is a nobody.. but i disagree, and believe he will function well in our offense if need be... just look at the stats and consider all the factors..
Shaw - 4 years exp- (probably no more than 1 mill a year, NO injuries)
________
136 receptions (Fine for 3rd/4th reciever)
1993 total yards receiving
10 TD's
6 receptions over 40+ yards
14.7 yard average per catch
Best season (he was a 3rd)
40 catches for 672 yards
(Note: this is with him only starting 11 of 63 games)
____________________________________________________
Dyson - 5 years exp- (presumably wanted 2-3 mill a year, INJURY PRONE)
_______
176 receptions
2310 total yards receiving
17 TD's (4 all last year)
7 reception over 40+ yards
13.1 yard average per catch
Best season (as a starter no less)
54 catches for 825 yards in 2001
(Note: all these numbers, or lack their of, with him starting 54 of 58 games)
____________________________________________________
Jenkins - 4 years exp - (reportedly wanted 3 mill a year, INJURY history)
_______
70 total receptions
987 yards total receiving
4 TD's (3 two years ago, 1 last year)
2 receptions over 40+ yards
14.1 yard average per catch
Best season - 32 catches for 518 yards - in 2001
(Note: started 6 out of 40 games. couldnt stay healthy and wants 3 mill a season for the production he has had.. or lack their of.. his potential is not worth 3 mill a year)
Look at how much each wanted, and take into consideraton Dyson has been around 1 more year, AND shaw is for a 3rd/4th reciever spot... shaw actually has the best yards per catch numbers. he is one 40+ yard catch behind dyson.. and tripled that of Mr. speedster jenkins... he can get open
guys.. this is a quality signing.. and he knows gilbrides offense.. he had his best season under gilbride in 2000 as a 3rd WR, catching for KORDELL STEWART
:snicker:
TD got a good signing..
man i trust the franchise in his hands.
