The Dolphins are shopping Ted Ginn Jr.

[CRA]

Ginn: 9 career TDs

Jarrett: 1 career TD

Both entered the league at the same time.

Ginn also has 2 rushing TDs, and 3 ST TDs

[brandon_87]

at the same time ginn woulda been a low risk with a small chance for a high reward, even if we just used him as a return man

[Guest silver82blade]

jarrett has barely had the ball thrown to him. you can't compare drops between the two. either jarrett is rarely open, or delhomme just didn't feed him the ball. you'd have to look at film to tell. either way, maybe you could compare the ratios of attempts to drops between the two, but i doubt it would be an accurate comparison 'cause jarrett just doesn't have enough attempts probably.

Ginn: 9 career TDs

Jarrett: 1 career TD

how can you even compare that? Ginn played all the time, Jarrett not so much and when he did play he had a jackass qb not throwing him the ball, had delhomme been taken out earlier we woulda seen alot more from him. Please dont ever compare those stats again

[brandon_87]

and I dont recall Jarrett ever dropping a pass, not catching a horribly thrown delhomme pass, yes, but never dropping one

[Guest silver82blade]

i remember the drops.

[Brooklyn Bully]

go look up how many passes ginn has dropped and report back with that stat

Moose drops balls. Smith too. Every receiver drops passes. Jarrett plays full-time...guess what...his drops increase.

I'd rather have had: Smitty, Jarrett, Ginn, K. Moore, Rookie

than : Smitty, Jarrett, Moore, Rookie

Funny you people trashing Ginn, yet you suck off Jarrett and claim he can be a star if just given a chance and time to blossom. Well...give Ginn time to grow in the league and maybe he could be a success too.

Vincent Jackson - 2 drops

Sidney Rice - 3 drops

Reggie Wayne - 3 drops

Wes Welker - 6 drops

Larry Fitzgerald - 3 drops

Robert Meachem - 0 drops

What you have said is true of Smith and Muhammad, however the best performing wide receivers of last season were ridiculously clutch. All of the listed above were target over 100 times (bar Meachem) and I could pull out a whole host of players that were consistent with the ball yet being thrown to over and over.

Check out my post above for Ginns numbers.

My main issue with Ginn, is that he is NOT a game changing receiver. He has really low yards after the catch for physical freak, which shows he either struggles to run routes efficiently, or he does not couple his speed with the ability to make people miss. Take away his two kickoff returns and he was convincingly average int he return game too. I would only pick him up if it cost less than a 5th.

[Guest silver82blade]

most of jarrett's playing time has been the preseason. you'd have to include those stats to get a more accurate gauge. 27 receptions with 3 drops isn't a big enough sample.

[Urrymonster]

i remember the drops.

Rubbish, you obviously have a thing against him and are not looking at it objectively. Often people view players with how much they like them, for you you only remember the incompletion's rather than the completions, try being a bit more astute in your assessment rather than letting your emotions rule your opinions.

[Sam Mills Fan]

GINN has low YAC? Didn't Jarrett have the lowest YAC in the league last year per reception?

He would instantly fall down the second he caught the ball.

that's ridiculous. i don't have a "thing" against anyone on this team or any other team for that matter. i remember plenty of his catches, good ones too. no one can say he didn't have a problem with his hands prior to the end of last year though. i hope he does do well, but i think we should draft two receivers just in case.

[Guest silver82blade]

well, that's not true. i have a thing against peppers as of last year. i'm ashamed of it, but i can't help it. =(

i have to be honest with myself.
