ok, you guy have some awsome builds. Mine is only level 12 but he leads the league in drops. What do you think I should do? I will bring jumping up to 20 just to be balanced with everything else. Also, I have 4 in run route and 4 in stiky hands. There is his build.

vision, confidence and jumping are the only things i see you should improve to stop the drops. Imo you probably have too MUCH catching for your level. Very strange.

Your build looks great for your level. Maybe it's the QB?

yes I know, my catching is higer than most of the recivers on my team currently. Highest rank on team is the lv 15 qb. My plan is bring jumping to 20 after todays game, then just work on bring all of the physical attributes up to 25, then all of them to 30. Stamina and vision may get a little boost sooner. But man I have 10 drops and like 37 receptions. Droping over a quater of the passes thrown to him is killing me.

Oh yeah, that is with all the equipment on of course.

Tipped balls still count as drops, so my guess is that low jumping is the culprit.

I'm not sure that it is that simple...my TE has pretty low jumping 14.55 and his confidence isn't anything special 24.03 yet I only have 2 drops with 32 rec. My catching is 41.59 and I have 3 for sticky hands, maybe it is the QB or maybe it's just bad luck but I don't think it is so much with jumping or confidence.

Wish I could figure it out?? Season stats are OK, but with 8 more catches it would be a good season::

G Rec Rec/G Yds Avg Yds/G Avg YAC TD Drops
10 33 3.3 337 10.2 33.7 2.6 1 8

24 confidence is still way better than 17. OP, I'd pump confidence esp. if he has multiple drops in single games.

drop passes is going to happen especially the TE position!! its apart of the game..

Your guy is going up the middle with a LB and a SS ready pounce as soon as he catches the ball... Depending on your confidence and ability you will know if your guy is going to hold up under the pressure.

Also your QB IF he sucks or average your TE is going to have to do some amazing stuff to keep the possession alive!!

TE's are their to keep the ball moving towards the end zone..

Jumping helps if your being like tripled or double tho..

I don't know if it's actually you, your opponents, or the QBs because I don't have a ton of drops 2 and 48 catches, but my attributes aren't considered great compared to anyones else's at my level. My Qb ain't terribly good. and I'm in a new capped league where everyone is pretty evenly matched up. I'd hate to tell you to dump points into something a person can't tangibly see on the field like speed.
