Dropped Passes - Anthony Fasano

[Dave Gray]

Dropped passes are a problem.  Henne is playing better each week, I feel, but I don't think that his receivers are stepping up to help him out.  Fasano, especially, can't seem to pull in balls.  I would like to see us look in a new direction for TE, I think.  I think Fasano has hit the wall with what he's going to give us.

I agree,I'd like to see him a bigger threat in the seams also....If not him, another TE Step up....

I would like to see us get a stud pass catching TE in FA or the draft next year, and use Fasano as a #2 guy...he is below average as a #1 TE, but I think he would be a top #2 TE.

I agree here.  The question is, who is coming out in the draft that fits that profile.  I think drafting John Jerry over Aaron Hernandez in the third round was a big mistake.  Look what Hernandez is doing for the Patriots.

Frankly, we dedicated the entire 2010 draft to defense.  We should dedicate the entire 2011 draft to offense.  Grab one or two speedsters at receiver, a stud pass catching tight end as you said, a running back with a burst of speed that can make guys miss tackles, and bulk up on the O-Line.

While we're at it, how about teaching the defenders, specifically Chris Clemons, how to catch and make plays when the ball hits them in the hands.

I agree Fasano drops have been a problem, and were a problem last year as well.
