Gallup is a WR2 here for 5-6 years because he is not replacing Cooper.
And let's be honest, Gallup needs to get better in every phase of playing the position.
He needs to recognize defenses better, needs to catch the ball better and he needs to get stronger with his route-running.
His double move deep attack is very similar to Taco's spin.
It was so effective in college he didn't need anything else but now he must add to his game.
His 48% catch rate was among the worst in the league and Cooper/Beasley both operated at ~70%.
That drop in percentage held the offense back as a whole.
Gallup has to function as a more reliable player next season as WR2 and he almost certainly will but nay fan trying to pass blame for Dak for his performance is simply wrong.
Dak not only has measurable with the other WRs which far exceed what he did with Gallup but his completion % are above average at every distance until you get to 45+ air yards and then barely dip below league average.
Gallup on the other hand has a low catch % at every level.
It catch rate 100% based on catchable balls, or is it targets vs. passes? If the latter, I think his catch rate is skewed because he was usually the target on those deep balls that failed to connect.
