I am at a loss for words with this guy. Slow Blind and apparently retarded.

I understand ya. This happens to many who build Power receivers. Where I think you went wrong (that is, IF you wanted a receiver more than a blocker); Too much in blocking. If you could've spread out his blocking points into Jumping and Vision... even increase his height next time... you'd have a TE that could catch balls in traffic and, perhaps... with the right AEQ, SA's and VA's, break tackles after the catch for extra yardage. I'm not near as worried about his lack of confidence as you are... but it could be a bit higher. Speed, for a Power receiver, isn't something you're going to end up with a LOT of. You have enough for sure.

I did... 28. Personally I think Vision is important. Some around here don't believe it's as important as others do. I'm on the high side... and that's even after coming down quite a bit (I thought less that 90 on any Dot was not good).

So do you all think that Vision 28 is what is to blame for this

Targeted 125 Receptions 28

???

Or is it that he has no fake skills or percentages to get open?

I would have made that First Step 10 be Juke 10 and had some fake gear on.

No doubt Vision contributes to those numbers... but so does the lack of Confidence and Jumping. Sometimes, as builders (and human beings) we tend to look for the "one thing" even when we know there's other contributing factors. Truth is it's a combination of things (and I haven't even mentioned the QB or the AI packages and plays used yet).
My only experience I can solidly say I have SOME knowledge about is the jumping. That I can attest to as to how it helps.
And, as far as the SA's go... I'm leary of those two for a Power Receiver. They're great for the super speedy/agile receivers... but not so much so for a slower guy. Kinda like the difference between a Randy Johnson fastball and a Jamie Moyer fastball. Easier to hit Moyer's pitch.

Low vision and jumping.

slow

No fakes

No Sticky hands or Route run

Only 30 VA's applied

15 VA's wasted

I agree with you about everything but the speed... since he's a Power TE archetype. Some will argue for more or less, but you're always going to be "slow" when comparing to most other receivers because most are "speed' archetypes.

needs all the catching vas...and catching att va

needs 10 more sticky hands

But he isn't fast enough to take advantage of 0 fake skills, terrible vision, and no jumping.

That's kind of a weird build. I try to get vision to 60+ on all dots regardless position.

I'm not disagreeing with that... but just saying slow is the very least of his issues.

I actually think you answered your own question here Yello. He's probably getting open otherwise he probably wouldn't have 125 targets. Just can't complete the catch with Jump at 6 and Vision at 28. The only other explanation is that he's being forced targets.

Probably doesn't help that he only has 30 VP's assigned????

EDIT: and as of today, it's 33 out of 146. Ouch.
