Admittedly I've probably taken my disdain for him a bit "over the top" at this point but I just don't like his game at all. For a player of his size, I want to see someone who aggressively goes after the football, makes big plays, is an end zone threat, etc. What I see is someone who plays more like a 5'10"-5'11" possession WR. His target volume took a massive spike in 2015 and yes my primary argument has been that it is an unsustainable pace. Even your projection ( 9 per game ) puts him in the 140-150 range. In each of the last 2 years there have only been a dozen WRs to have reached this number - will Keenan be one of those WRs in the future? Over this past off season I discussed at length why I believed that there was this massive spike and why I expected it to drop back down. Maybe he catches 70% of his targets, maybe not. He did in 2013* and 2015 but not in 2014 (63%). I believe his 2015 may turn out to be the anomaly of his career and his peak. And maybe I'm wrong.flyersfan1981 wrote: Skip...I respect you a lot as one of the best forum posters...but I literally just can't wait to read how you rip Keenan anytime I see a Keenan thread pop up...it makes me laugh.
The thing about this game is that no one is ever 100% correct. We all have players we like who fail and players we don't who succeed. I don't think there is anything wrong with having big misses. I need to believe in my own views of talent first (as we all should) and then couple in the views from the community. Most of the time they mesh but sometimes they don't.
I'll try to tone down my "anti-Keenan" posts over the next year just for you.
