Message: <blockquote data-quote="NOMOFO" data-source="post: 546335" data-attributes="member: 9687">"Shields is clearly not elite"? Granted, "elite" is an awfully strong word but... I just read this at SI right now:In 2013 alone, he played in five games where he faced off against either <a href="http://bleacherreport.com/aj-green" target="_blank">A.J. Green</a>, Josh Gordon, <a href="http://bleacherreport.com/brandon-marshall" target="_blank">Brandon Marshall</a> or Calvin Johnson—the giants of the receiver position. But according to data at <a href="https://www.profootballfocus.com/data/by_player.php?tab=by_player&season=2013&surn=Shields&playerid=5943&group=7&pre=REG&pre=REG" target="_blank">Pro Football Focus</a> (subscription required), Shields allowed just eight catches for 129 yards and one touchdown when targeted against those receivers last season. The numbers include a shutout against Gordon, the NFL's leading receiver in 2013. I don't think anyone can argue that that is a pretty impressive run right there.</blockquote>
