This is very true, and it's not like we didn't watch Diggs let a game defining ball slip through his arms. It just felt like when Beane was putting the wr together he made a point to get people with solid hands. Shakir and Kincaid have really good hands and supposedly so does Coleman. (I say supposedly because the NFL hits different than college at least in my eyes.) I don't have the numbers in front of me but I'm pretty sure both Hollins and Samuel also have pretty high catch %. So when MVS was signed I couldn't help but scratch my head and wonder "Why him of all people?" after seemingly making the effort to get high catch % players.
This camp hasn't really helped my doubts either seeing as MVS has had a decent portion of drops in practice, I won't count the preseason games because he had crap qbs throwing to him but I still cringed a bit.
I'm definitely an "any given Sunday" type of person, so he very well could catch that ball that I'm so afraid he drops or he might never be in that position in the first place. It just makes me nervous at the end of the day and I'm really sick of being nervous watching this team, we're too good to be pumping my anxiety. Now I'm not sure who could take his roster spot that would be better, If I'm honest I was hoping Claypool could've turned himself around but that ended when the turf monster ate his grippers.
