Dorsett has 4.27- 4.33s speed and 6.70s 3-cone (fluidity/flexibility). A former 1st rd. that has yet live up to expectations.
Texans TE had 8 more targets (and 3 more catches), and like I said some 70 more yards.
Some people either like to argue just to argue, or they choose to ignore the obvious.
Stop. I’m appealing to you because you seem like a reasonable person.
Yep, will do. Kind of incredible someone would minimize the impact of Tyreek Hill—one of the most dynamic speed/quick twitch receivers of the 21st century—to imply that Tua's performance upgrade is really all about him and not about his weapons. And that Jordan Aiken and O.J. Howard are "dynamic" TEs (one bagging groceries for awhile while the other cut the year Rob Gronkowski retires). Lol. Okkkkkkkkkk then...
Why should YAC be included when we"re talking about AYA (Air Yard Per Attempt) of the QB.
What do the Dolphins TEs have over the Texans?
AYA is also directly correlated to the ability to get open downfield. Obviously, as an elite deep threat, Hill is going to have a material advantage over anything on this roster, and many NFL rosters. Ultra elite receivers will have better AYA, so not sure what the point is here.
Who says anything about Cooks being on equal footing with Hill?
The conversation is about AYA and YAC, which is directly correlated to the quality of the receiving core. You mentioned Tua had a better downfield air pass numbers over Mills, which is fine. But you don't seem to want to attribute any causality to Miami's much better 1/2 WR receiving core. Tua's improvement had a hell of a lot to do with both Waddle and Hill.
Collins had 4 start.
It was my conversation. I know I never discussed YAC.
Also, you guys never give light to the fact that I had brought up a number of links where they rank the Texans Offensive Line higher than that of the Dolphins.
Just because Miami doesn't have a WR like Collins doesn't mean that Collins is in Waddle or Hill's zipcode. Collins is a promising player, a developing player. But both Waddle and Hill would give much more productive value than what Collins brings today, and it's not even very close. I assumed this would be obvious to anybody.
I can believe this. I don't think the Texans OL is actually that bad.
I will bring up the other links shortly.
They may have the two fastest guys, by a hair.
Here are the Dolphins two weakest link on the Oline.

Hope you aren't arguing that because Dorsett and Cooks are almost, or as fast as Waddle/Hill that they are even remotely on par as weapons at WR. That would just be ridiculous, so I'm going to assume you're focusing strictly on the speed element. Regardless of straight line speed, Miami's receivers are materially better than Dorsett/Cooks so that's what really matters in the end.
Texans are seven spots higher than the Dolphins here:

Part of what make those two guys dangerous are the YAC element.
Dude, you're losing me. You can bring up all the combine stuff you want. But that doesn't necessarily translate into game action. We can all see through a simple eye test that Waddle and Hill and MUCH superior to Cooks and Dorsett. **** man, it's not even a conversation. Perhaps peak Cooks you might have an argument he's close to the other guys, but he's obviously lost a step and I haven't seen any catches this year where he really separated all that much... Everything Cooks catches is contested. Hill and Waddle get 2-3 yards of separation on the defender all the time.
Did you forget that Mills left a lot of yards on the field until lately?
Brother that could be said about every last one of us on this forum. We all argues our point of views and ignore the things we chooses to ignore. That’s life.
Honestly, I'm very satisfied with Mills ball placement in general, especially lately. Without question, most of the throws he's making are in very tight windows. I don't see much separation at all from these receivers - any of them. Including Cooks who should be the speedy breakaway guy.
Game 1 here; this is just the short version and I already see 3 poor passes by Mills when the receiver was wide open.
Not worried about someone who had a 99.5 passer rating and was the 10th ranked QB in Week 1 according to PFF. I can dissect any NFL game and show you QBs that miss throws and make the wrong read. Mills certainly hasn't been great in some games, but I expect this from a deeply inexperienced QB with below average weapons on the roster and conservative offense. As long as he keeps playing like he did last game and Week 1, I doubt Caserio used lottery draft capital on a QB. And this is the best case scenario for the team IMO. We shall see how it goes - tons of evaluation time left to see how it plays out. I believe it will all come down to consistency with Mills and whether he shows enough incremental process before season's end to gain the confidence of management into 2023.
Pass no. 1
Why not?
No, you guys were the ones who try to shift it toward YAC.
Do we have anything better to do?Cooks, who ain't all that, and the crap behind him vs what the Dolphins have, or anybody else for that matter, Tua vs Mills, WTF is the matter with you people going round and round with this bullshit?
Ooh, let's argue for days on end over who's the better mediocre team while totally ignoring one of those teams (Texans) is bottom of the barrell.
The point is that receivers have been open.

I will say I'd like to see Pep design more route combos that organically have quick routes running free by driving coverage away to other routes within the play.
So you think the Texans TE's are better receivers than Gesicki?
Did I say that?
Yes

You can't expect the receiver to make the difficult catch all the time.
