NFL Week 12 Practice Squad Power Rankings Fixing the Chiefs receiver-consistency problem |

I think the are fine. Mostly fine.They somehow had more drops in the lo s to the (four) than in the season-opening defeat at the hands of the Lions (three), and the latter game felt littered with drops, didn't it?If it takes multiple drops for Kansas City to lose, that's an encouraging sign for how good Andy Reid's squadron genuinely is. And while drops are typically random, we can't glo s over the fact that the very Chiefs receivers who've been dropping all the pa ses are going to be the receivers will be slinging rockets to down the stretch and in the playoffs. Not exactly a reliable bunch.Putting the drops into the correct perspective, depending where you look, the Chiefs lead the NFL in drops. However, Pro Football Focus, which I trust most, has Patrick Mahomes having dealt with 19 drops, which is actually tied for third in football with and at the "top" of the league in that category.We should almost always be looking at rate statistics over counting statistics anyway, and the drop rate for Mahomes pa ses is currently at 7.0%, high but not astronomically, unprecedentedly high -- it's 7th-highest this season among 26 quarterbacks with at least 250 attempts to date. So even if the Chiefs drops haven't been quite as brutal as prime-time bias has made them out to be -- they're clearly Jaden McDaniels Jersey still an i sue for a club with reasonable back-to-back aspirations.Kansas City's defense is fourth in EPA per play allowed, and they're very healthy entering the post-Thanksgiving stretch run of the regular season as they attempt to get home-field advantage again in the AFC postseason which would guarantee the continuation of Mahomes' incredible streak of not playing a road playoff game.These pesky drops need to be worked out, because they could be the precise thing that keeps another Super Bowl run from materializing for the Chiefs. My suggestion besides more JUGS machine work for the Chiefs receiver and tight end rooms -- an elevation of practice squad wideout , the strapping perimeter wideout Kansas City selected in the fifth round out of Clemson in 2021. He has just one drop in six career preseason outings and a mere four drops on 118 targets against five seasons in college (which equates to a tiny 4.8% drop rate).And Powell has run two -- yes, two! -- routes in a regular-season game at the NFL level. Give him a chance, Andy! Before Week 12's game against the Raiders! Do it.Let's quickly pay homage to Practice Squad Power Ranking alums likeTE,wideout,wideout,guard,center, andreceiver(among many others) who have all graduated to become important mainstays on their clubs' respective 53-man rosters and contribute in their own ways each weekend. As for The CUT, we had a elevation before Week 11, and I'm Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Jersey counting being called up to the 53-man roster ahead of Black Friday's clash with the . So we've reached double digits! Let's keep it rolling in the holiday season. The expanded, 16-man practice squads are about the only good thing to come out of the pandemic, and they're here to stay in the. Because of this, I run the Practice Squad Power Rankings parallel to the league and write about 16 individuals every Friday, 10 officially in the rankings and six honorable mentions.

Further: To get back to the true origins of the PSPR, which were to highlight young players, I won't be featuring "veterans" this season. Selecting someone like-- currently on thepractice squad -- would not embody the fundamental intention of The PSPR. So for the sake of the Practice Squad Power Rankings' dignity, I'll only be including practice-squaders who are rookies, second-year players, third-year players or fourth-year pros. Players drafted from 2020 on. That's it. What I'm asking of you as a loyal PSPR patron -- alert me on X/Twitter if you see a tweet about a PSPR getting The Call so I can add to The CUT.McCormick was THAT DUDE on some super-fun UTSA teams over the past few seasons, and while he didn't test particularly well at the combine, at 5-foot-9 and over 200 pounds, he's cannon-ba |
