I think its a pressing question.
I imagine BP comes back but TO has been such a distraction and he continues to drop catchable balls at an alarming rate when it matters most. Cost us at least one game already this year, could've made a big difference today too.
I have better hands than TO, seriously. A pro athlete shouldn't drop passes that hit them in the hands softly. Just 25 million reasons for it.
Plus, TO only half-heartedly (if at all) fights for a ball if a DB is making an INT attempt.
Sure he's a playmaker when he catches it and forces defenses to think about him....but is he worth it?
Personally, I would make a bold splash in the draft and go get Calvin Johnson. There are a few players that are of value that we could trade away and not miss (like JJ, Rivera, etc) in addition to draft picks to get there if we wanted, then we could wash our hands of TO or at least put so much pressure on him to NOT drop passes that maybe he'd concentrate a little more.
So my question is...what do you guys think? Is TO worth the headache?
