I read a lot of opinions based on measurable of the rookie wide receivers that we drafted this year. Each one of these receivers has flaws or they would not have been drafted in the 4th through 6th rounds.

Historically, from the 2012 through the 2015 draft, 55 receivers were drafted in the 4th through 6th rounds. Of these receivers, only 10 have ever caught a pass in the NFL. Most of these caught less than 10 total passes. Only 2 have been gems — Stefon Diggs and Marvin Jones. One other notable receiver, Martavis Bryant has a chance to be a good starting receiver if off-field issues are resolved. Most are like Jarrius Wright and Jarrod Abbredaris, if they played at all.

History tells us that 17% of WRs drafted that late in the draft will catch a pass in the NFL. 6% will be a starting WR. Odds are that out of the 3 we drafted, we’ll be lucky to have one catch a pass in the NFL and overwhelmingly lucky to have one become a good starting receiver in the league....just to put it in perspective.
