my guy's got Mr. Reliable, Possession Receiver, and Sure Hands each maxed at 15 VA pts. Plus, he has 65 in catching.

Anyone know how to stop the drops? (or knocked loose?) He's got 34 drops, and counting...

Sticky Hands? Cover up? I'm not sure, but its frustrating. My TE had 3 "drops" last game that all turned out to be knocked loose.

Exactly, and in that order.

Carrying being the most important.

I forgot which mod was saying this but "Knocked loose" Is at least as far as the sim is concerned happens after the catch so carrying is what is affected by it because its during the "put the ball away" time and the moments after which are when the "receiver" is carrying the ball, not still "catching" it.

Kicking helps from dropping balls.

It's not jackhammer, though. I scrimmed a game where my TE played against the team I own. My TE had two drops, both knocked loose by players with zero Jackhammer.

It's just a convenient excuse for what is going on.

From my calculations, you need 60+ carrying if you want to get rid of this issue

Has to be strength. My TE is borderline retireable. Will be getting his strength to 60 next and if that doesnt fix the problem he's done.

I have 3rd capped catching and 40+ carrying and 15 in mr reliable and psosession receiver. Sitting at 50 strength.

My tight end has 60 strength, 60+ catching, and soft capped carrying and confidence, maxed Mr Reliable, sure hands, and possession reciever. still has 1/3 of his passes knocked loose.

The thing is, i took carrying up 12 points last off season and have had more passes knocked loose since. I guess i have to take it to the 60 cap, but i'm worried it won't mean shit. any one have a TE, or know of one, that doesn't have issues with KL? Is it really carrying to 60?

I don't think their is a way to fix it by the players. The sim needs to get a fix IMO.
