Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 886064">Yeah, Lazard has been a pretty decent receiver this season and last even if we wouldn't expect any Pro Bowls in his future.  People get hung up on draft status and workouts in underwear when guys are 20 or 22 years old even if there is subsequent evidence on the field to show something different.At the conclusion of last season I dubbed him Mr. First Down, moving the chains on 69% of his catches and 46% of targets.  He was continuing that with 11 FDs on 13 catches before getting injured, 85% of catches, 65% of targets.According to pro-football-reference.com, the passer rating when he was targeted was 115.6 last season and 157.1 this season on limited sample sizes.He's had 4 drops on 69 targets over two years, again on a limited sample.  A 5.8% drop rate is not good, but it's not bad either.He's just not the kind of guy who's going to be a high volume, 150 target receiver.  But as a 90 or 100 target guy over a full season with a great QB he'd be pretty productive.  Compared to a John Ross, I'd take him every day and twice on Sundays.</blockquote>
