[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 496646"] Depends who you ask. It's not an official statistic. NBC Sports tagged him for 7. [url]http://scores.nbcsports.msnbc.com/fb/leaders.asp?type=Receiving&range=NFL&rank=232[/url] Stats says 7: [url]http://hosted.stats.com/fb/leaders.asp?range=NFL&type=Receiving&rank=232[/url] Here's another source I've never heard of also saying 7: [url]http://www.sportingcharts.com/nfl/stats/drops/2012/[/url] PFF graded harder across the league and tagged Finley for 9: [url]https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2013/01/22/signature-stats-drop-rate-tight-ends/[/url] Some Packer fans let their distaste for his personality distort their perception. Sure, there's no apologizing for an 8 - 12% drop rate...it's not good...but it sure ain't Delaney Walker 30% bad and it was about in line with Cobb's and Nelson's drop rates. Finley should declare which source he'll use. Somebody who actually uses twitter might want to mention this to him. Otherwise his haters will claim he's dodging the payout when he goes into a full layout for a low ball and it goes off his fingers. As an aside, I believe there is a heavy overlap between Finley haters and Driver admirers. Driver hadn't even tried to lay out for a ball since 2009. Go figure. [/QUOTE]
