Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
This has to be one of the lowest in nfl for a starter. I saw his career average is 53%. Diggs Career catch rate is 70% and Beasely career is 71%.
Re: Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
The NFL avg, according to stat muse, was 63% last year.
Now, I'm not sure if this is catches in relation to targets, or catches in relation to balls that hit their hands.
Re: Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
Do any of those percentages reflect when the QB overthrows or throws the pass away?

Catchable targets I believe

So basically it's a drops number.
I know he's capable of better numbers.
I don't recall if he had any injury issues.
This is his contract year so we can expect better numbers.
Re: Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
Dropping the TD in the endzone vs Miami and the 70 yard bomb vs the Jets that hit him in the face did not help.
Bills would have had the bye if he catches either one of those.
Re: Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
I said year 1 he’d be out of football by 2024.
peeps were all over me. Truth is I just took the average 5 year career for an NFL player and came up with 2024 for Gabe.
One good wide open KC playoff game doth not make a career. If he’s cheap then keep him but he isnt getting a new contract here. Maybe Daboll will make me wrong and sign him as a free agent next offseason
Re: Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
But it’s all Josh’s fault!
Re: Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
WR's were supposed to be a strength but really weren't. Crowder got hurt early. McKenzie is meh. Shakir looked like a rookie.
The biggest disappointment was Davis. In 2021, he clearly improved over the course of the season and it looked like that 4 TD game against the Chiefs was his coming out party. Then, in 2022, he was awful.
Diggs is still great, but beyond him, it's pretty average.

Which team(s) do you consider average and let’s compare WR 2-4

Can’t fiqure that statement out.
‘This team is 7-10 without Josh with multiple qb’s injured behind that o-line.
Re: Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
Opi is right. Davis was the biggest disappointment. He is not even close to a viable and reliable #2 WR.
He is better suited #3 or #4.
The Bills led the league in drops (34), and Davis led the team with nine of them.

I looked at NO Saints
WR 2 was actually a RB as far as yards and completions
after that the group was better than Davis McK Shakir

We have a winner! If it wasn’t for Josh we would we looking at a top 5 draft pick!
Re: Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
I thought the target stat was simply that the receiver was the closest to the ball in the air.
I was not aware that they had to be "catchable."
Also, "catchable" is pretty subjective. I don't like subjective data.
Is there a degree of "catchability?" Like, was it kinda catchable or was it really super easy catchable?
Wouldn't a catchable ball that isn't caught be tallied as a drop?
If that is the case, then drops plus catches would equal targets minus passes defensed.
I think targets that aren't catches can be either inaccurate throws, drops or passes defensed.

I like our WRs but they don't make-up a good squad -- the mix isn't right. We need one guy who is super speed for example. Just give us some blazing speed to spread the defense out more. Give us someone else with size and physicality...
It feels like we have 5 capable slot receivers .... then we need to go out and get Beasley to 'get the band back together'. Folks, you have to start recognizing the pattern of dysfunction that is happening on our team and stop making excuses for the laisse-faire coaching and lack of direction and discipline.
Re: Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
Davonte Adams had a 55.6% catch rate according to Lineups (180 targets and 100 catches.)
Anyone else giving this the side eye?

You are overthinking it. Davis dropped a ton. Hands on ball or off chest…
Re: Gabe Davis Catch Rate is Hideous
No. I'm questioning the stat and the post that alluded to how targets mean the ball was catchable.
I'm not arguing that Gabe wasn't a disappointment this year.
He was and he had key drops.
I simply mean that target % isn't all on the WR.
