You probably haven't heard very much, though, about
Cole Beasley, and the excellent season he is having. Beasley went undrafted out of SMU in 2012, and since then has been nothing more than a nice third or fourth option in the Dallas passing game -- he set career highs last season with 52 catches, 536 yards, and five touchdowns. And his raw numbers this year are only marginally better -- he is tenth in catches and touchdowns, but 20th in yards, barely registering a blip on the NFL's radar. He hasn't gained more than 75 yards in a game all year. However, he has ten third-down conversions, tied with
Antonio Brown for the league lead. And while he is in the top ten in with 33 catches, he has only been the target on six incomplete passes, and he is not the top 100 players in that category. When you take the modest value of his good plays, and then subtract the minute value of his bad plays, you are left with 202 DYAR -- and that, believe it or not, is the highest total in the league.
