Good News for Maclin Mavens

[BigSlizz]

Last game I bought was Wolfenstein. Haven't had a chance to check out much lately. WWE 2K15 is supposed to be great, though!

Does it come with a syringe of anabolic steroids?

[TerpEagle]

Sorry, he doesn't get credit for 90 catches until he makes them.

Jackson had 124 targets last season. Maclin is on track for 168. Hey ... maybe that's what happened to Foles QB rating!

Or maybe that's why Maclin's catch rate is so low. Maclin's route running isn't causing Foles to throw off his back foot or the pocket to collapse.

Stupid argument - Most #1 Wr's in the NFL account for 22+% of their team's offensive targets. Djax is the anomoly, not the norm.

Do math much? Is 20 or 25 closer to 22? Duh. Jackson is also playing with Pierre Garcon.

Jackson has only 6 less yards than Maclin on 23 less targets. Amazing.

Too bad he can't get into the endzone like Maclin can. I know catches per target win games, but still TD's should be considered.

Maclin's TDs/target are 9.64% while Jackson's are only 6.67%

Per catch, it's 17.8% to 11.1%.

For being able to do so much more with his targets he seems to score a lot less.

Spend the money but not at WR.

I'm confused about what your overall point is. Do you just think Maclin's stats are masking the fact that he's actually not very good, or do you just think we shouldn't spend big money on him?

[SCREAMIN EAGLE]

Spend the money but not at WR.

So you let Maclin walk because you dont want to pay him?. That leaves you with Cooper, and Matthews as your starters and Huff as the #3. Disaster

Garcon Sucks.

[BigSlizz]

He's not going to get $23M per year. There's plenty of money and other guys who won't be back to pay Maclin the money Jackson got (which is fair for what he is), and still invest in linebackers and corners.

Not as good as his stats and it depends on the money.

[Maniac]

Garcon Sucks.

I gotta admit he's no Riley Cooper. But he gets a lot of targets.

[Maniac]

No way I give Maclin 10m a year. This is a system offense. Plug and play.

[BigSlizz]

That's why all of our other receivers are having the type of year Maclin is, right?

[Mr. Triple Dip]

So what you are saying is that any WR can thrive in high school Harry's system? Good to see you've turned the corner on Harry.
