I noticed the following receivers while looking at some stats @ ncaasavant.com .... was keeping an eye out for receivers with good hands, ie high catch rates.

In addtion to listing the usual # of receptions, yards, and TD's, the site also lists their total targets along with the percentage of their individual targets are that of the team total. It gives you you a good picture of how important they were to their respective team. What stuck out to me was the high completion percentage along with high percentage of team targets. For example, most players avg between 50 and 60 percent completion percentage and somewhere between 10 & 20 % share of their teams total targets. The first 3 were all over 60% on completions and at least 25% of their teams targets.

KeVonn Mabon - Ball St. ; 66% Catch rate ; 30% of team targets

Rodney Adams - South Florida ; 64% Catch rate ; 26% of team targets (IMO,this guy looks the most explosive of the bunch)

Thomas Sperbeck - Idaho St. ; 63% Catch rate ; 30% of team targets

Darreus Rogers - USC ; 68% Catchrate ; 19% of team targets

Sorry, I just can't get excited about drafting another young WR with as many holes as we have elsewhere, ... and dealing with the average age of our current crop, what we need are veterans. Still, i'm sure we'll probably take someone late or even a UDFA or two. As it is, my money is on Garcon, and i'd be happy with just that, but if we can manage the money, @jrry32 has it just about right with Garcon & Stills imo. We have Austin, Cooper, Spruce, Thomas, McRoberts, North, Marquez & Shippen already on the payroll without worrying over Britt & Quick. I'm more than happy to go with the young guys we have so long as we find our veteran #1 WR for this season. As for receivers, if we must dabble in the draft or free agency for one, i'd prefer looking at another TE, but unless it's another fairly expensive F/A that replaces Kendricks, i'm not sure of the point with Higbee & Hemingway still mostly untested. jmo.

Dareus Rodgers looked very good in the Rose Bowl. He doesn't get the majority of team targets because USC is loaded at WR and they spread the ball around well.
