Cole Beasley has the 2nd highest catch rate in the NFL for a WR (unfortunately for us #1 is Percy Harvin).

We absolutely need to start using Beasley more. Even if that rate drops 10 percent as a result of using him more, That will still result in a lot more first downs, yards, and eventually points.

Dez Bryant is the closest on the team to him with a 68.1%

I think Cole Beasley has the potential to be every bit as good as Wes Welker, and it's time he takes a larger role in the offense.

I know a lot of people are liking how much we're running the ball, but we're actually running a bit too much.

We're actually 26th in the NFL in passing attempts per game... That's entirely too low for the weapons we have on offense. We remain 7th in the NFL in passing yards per attempt.

Keeping our defense off the field by running is great, but making other teams one dimensional by scoring early is another way to help this defense.

The scouting report on Richard Sherman is he struggles with Beasley type of receivers - specifically they mentioned TY Hilton in the same mode.

There are plays to be made with Beas this week!

There is no way Beasley has better hands than Dez.

Best route runner on the team, and probably the best hands on the team as well.

Let's Get Beasley Touches.

What did you think I was talking about?

I'd say Witten has the best hands over both Dez and Beasely. He may not be flashy with one handed catches, but if you put it within arms reach of him he will bring it in.

Chain mover. He just makes plays.
Exactly. Even more important than his catch rate is his 3rd down conversion rate.

Beasley 5 of 6 40 yd 0 td 0 int 5 fd (83%)
Witten 8 of 9 80 yd 0 td 0 int 6 fd (67%)
Bryant 7 of 11 108 yd 2 td 1 int 7 fd (63%)
others 2 of 4 63 yd 0 td 0 int 2 fd (50%)
Williams 2 of 7 32 yd 1 td 0 int 2 fd (29%)
Murray 3 of 5 25 yd 0 td 0 int 1 fd (20%)
Romo's conversions: 52.1%
Romo's 3rd down rating: 101.6

I disagree. Jason Witten is amazing, but his hands aren't that great. He does, however, seem to catch the ones we need the most.

Galian:

Where can I find the % catch rate for WRs?
