About Those Stone Hands

Posted by Derek

Usually I confine my efforts to defending Philadelphia players who are being unfairly maligned, but if I have to read another comment about how terrible Braylon Edwards' hands are ...

I know it seems counter-intuitive, but having bad hands and dropping a lot of passes are not the same thing.  They can be the same thing.  TO, for instance, has terrible hands and drops a lot of balls.  But more often, if the guy's an NFL wide receiver and he has a lot of drops, it means two things:

  1. He tries too often to make a play before catching the ball.
  2. Someone is throwing him a lot of passes.

Do me one favor.  Before the next time you say you don't want Edwards because he has "stone hands," just watch the videos GCobb posted a couple days ago.

The.  Guy.  Is.  A.  Freak.
