Our option is already on the team, his name is Dawson Knox.  

 

What I would do instead is go find a dedicated blocking TE than can do it close to as good as Knox so we can then turn Knox loose in the passing game instead of primarily using him to block. 

Get Me Lee Smith Line 1 stat

At this point I think I could out produce any wr on this team outside of Diggs.  At least no one would bother to cover me leaving me wide open all the time, and if I manage to catch a couple I out performed the Bills wrs lol. If I dropped most of them it would be par for the course

 

Maybe you should start breaking the pills in half.

When given the chance to run routes (instead of block), it would be nice if Knox didn’t drop the ball.

Knox has the highest catch rate on the team of any player.  So, stats suggest you are incorrect in this assessment.  Yes he dropped that final pass, but he is statistically more likely to catch the pass over anyone on the team.

With Knox, it’s not so much how often he drops passes, but rather how impactful the ones he drops are.

 

He tends to save his brick hands for the worst possible and most impactful moments. 

 

Like dropping the game sealing first down pass against the Jets, or dropping the game winning TD against the Vikings.

Wasn't a drop. It was a great play by Mosley on a ball thrown behind Knox.

Sorry, I don’t play the “it’s not a drop, it’s a PBU” game. If it hits your hands, you catch it.

 

Knox had 2 full hands on the ball. He needs to catch it. He is paid to catch the ball despite what the defender does.

So when a Bills DB knocks the ball out of an opponent's hands it is not a pass defensed?  

The other team makes plays too.

Great play call, slightly bad pass, great play by Moseley 

Knox drops some easy ones from time to time but that wasn't one of them.

If the only time you’re expected to make a catch is when the defender never touches you, then receivers need to be paid a lot less.

 

But reality is that we see amazing receptions by other teams receivers every week. As Steve Tasker said today “it would be nice if the wide receivers could make a contested catch every now and then”.

 

It’s a drop, in my opinion.
